CHAPTER 1149: CHAPTER 1149: THE MYSTERIOUS IMMORTAL PALACE

After Shen Tu was killed, the entire Qinglin Academy returned to tranquility.

The appearance of Leng Yanran also excited many of the old instructors at the Academy.

Coupled with Xu Nian’s recent decisive action, it practically ignited the enthusiasm of all the Academy’s students.

Not a single student experienced even the slightest disturbance in their Tao Heart due to Shen Tu’s appearance.

This is also why Xu Nian ultimately let them seek their own revenge.

Just like that, Xu Nian and the seven women settled directly at Qinglin Academy.

Through the accounts of Dugu Jingcheng and others, Xu Nian and his companions gained some understanding of the current situation on Tianhen Continent.

It turns out that due to Emperor Xing’s appearance, the entire Tianhen Continent underwent an earth-shattering change.

As for another cultivator who escaped from the Land of the Immortal Tombs, Dugu Jingcheng and others had not heard a single word.

This left Xu Nian quite astonished.

Back then, he had heard from the White Flood Dragon King that three strong individuals had escaped from the Land of the Immortal Tombs.

He had killed one of them, leaving two remaining.

This Emperor Xing should be one, and the other should also be on Tianhen Continent.

Now there’s no news of him, which indeed made Xu Nian somewhat surprised.

"Could it be that the other strong individual left Tianhen Continent? Or perhaps went into seclusion?" Xu Nian wondered to himself.

However, soon he no longer dwelled on the issue.

"City Lord, what about the Qin Family now? Are they still in Cloud Sea City?" Xu Nian pondered for a moment before asking.

"The Qin Family left Cloud Sea City long ago; I’ve heard they went to a remote small village to completely retreat from the world," Murong Tianhai replied.

Xu Nian nodded, which was consistent with his own thoughts.

In the current turbulent times, even the Tianhen Continent would be affected by the matters of the Immortal Tomb.

The Qin Family choosing to retreat from the world at this time is definitely the wisest choice.

As for whether they can truly survive this crisis, it depends on their own fortune.

Xu Nian would not help them.

"Xu Nian, did you really go to the Cultivation Realm?" Dugu Jingcheng hesitated for a long time before finally speaking.

"Yes, I did go!" Xu Nian nodded.

He understood Dugu Jingcheng’s thoughts and knew that Dugu Jingcheng wanted to go to the Cultivation Realm.

"Is the Cultivation Realm truly vast? I’ve heard that there are countless Tianhen Continents in the Cultivation Realm, and countless cultivators. I wonder if it’s true?" Dugu Jingcheng asked.

"It’s true. The Cultivation Realm has Nine Great Star Regions, each with trillions of planets. Among these planets, thousands have life, and basically, every planet with life has cultivators. You could say cultivators are like fish and shrimp in the ocean, countless. I’ve witnessed scenes where tens of thousands of Earth Immortal level experts were cultivating together," Xu Nian said with a smile.

"Tens of thousands of Earth Immortal level experts?" Dugu Jingcheng and the nearby Chen Xifeng took a deep breath.

For them, Earth Immortal level experts were an unattainable existence. Tens of thousands of Earth Immortal level experts, what kind of scene would that be?

Seeing their astonishment, Xu Nian smiled slightly and said nothing more.

Actually, he didn’t mention that those tens of thousands of Earth Immortal experts were mostly trapped and killed by him.

If these words were spread, Dugu Jingcheng and others might regard him as a monster.

He once used heavenly tribulations to trap and kill many strong individuals in the Land of Slaughter.

This matter remains little known to this day, and if it were to spread, it might indeed shock the entire Cultivation World.

"If you wish to enter the Cultivation Realm, you can find me at the Heavenly Court Gang on Tianlan Continent. It’s a gang I founded, and I believe the Heavenly Court Gang can definitely assist you with your cultivation," Xu Nian said with a smile, and handed three jade talismans to Dugu Jingcheng and others.

These were to help Dugu Jingcheng and the others to pass through the Heavenly Thunder Barrier, and at crucial times, they could also be used to save lives.

The three of them held the jade talismans given by Xu Nian, their faces filled with excitement.

For them, the Cultivation Realm was a place of incomparable longing.

But with their own strength, they could never enter the Cultivation Realm.

Now, with the treasures left by Xu Nian, they could venture into the Cultivation Realm.

As for Xu Nian’s own faction, the Heavenly Court Gang, they didn’t take it seriously.

After all, Xu Nian had only been in the Cultivation Realm for a few years; how strong could a faction created in a few years be?

Xu Nian saw they hadn’t paid much attention to the Heavenly Court Gang and said nothing more.

The Heavenly Court Gang now is no longer the same as it was.

To cultivate new disciples, the Heavenly Court Gang has undergone strict divisions, sending them out for training.

Talented and potential disciples receive a lot of resources for cultivation.

One could say the Heavenly Court Gang is in a period of rapid growth.

In a few more years, or maybe even fewer, the Heavenly Court Gang will reach its peak, and by then, it will certainly surprise the entire Cultivation World.

"By the way, Xu Nian, some strange things have happened in the West Desert recently. Not long ago, there was an enormous sandstorm in the West Desert, and after the sandstorm, someone reportedly saw an Immortal Palace. That person entered the Immortal Palace and brought out many immortal pills and spiritual treasures. Later, countless strong individuals went to the West Desert, but none returned. From start to finish, only the first person to enter the Immortal Palace obtained treasures," Chen Xifeng said.

"An Immortal Palace? Could it be some Ancient Ruins?" Xu Nian speculated.

He had no great interest in ancient relics.

"No, it’s not Ancient Ruins; it truly is an Immortal Palace. According to that person, the Immortal Palace was carved out of a massive red stone, and the inside is vast, the most important thing is, that they once saw an Immortal there, a living Immortal," Dugu Jingcheng said.

"An Immortal? In this world and the Cultivation Realm, everything is suppressed, let alone an Immortal level. Upon reaching the Immortal Realm, one is destined to ascend to the Immortal Realm," Xu Nian shook his head and said.

"It might not be impossible, Xu Nian. If I guess correctly, the red stone should be an Immortal Essence Stone, which is extremely rare in the Cultivation Realm, let alone building a palace with a whole Immortal Essence Stone, and it has the effect of accelerating cultivation speed and shielding the Heaven and Earth Laws, so if there truly is an Immortal hiding inside, they wouldn’t be affected by the Heaven and Earth Laws," Wentian Demon Sovereign’s voice sounded in Xu Nian’s mind.

Immortal Essence Stone?

Xu Nian was a bit surprised. If it was true as the Wentian Demon Sovereign said, that person seen earlier might truly be an Immortal.

However, even if that’s the case, the Immortal Palace doesn’t appeal much to Xu Nian.

Compared with the Chaos Divine Palace, that so-called Immortal Palace is not worth mentioning.

"Xu Nian, I advise you to take a look. If there truly is an Immortal there, it’s a huge treasure. An Immortal hidden within an Immortal Essence Stone can evolve the true Heaven and Earth Laws, which would be of great help to your future cultivation; of course, if the Immortal intends to kill you, it’s also effortless," Wentian Demon Sovereign’s voice echoed again.

The true Heaven and Earth Laws?

A glint flashed in Xu Nian’s eyes as he thought, "In that case, I might as well take a trip."
