Chapter 499: Chapter 295: The Focus of the World [Two Chapters Combined]

At the same time, he had no liking for Helian ZhaoYu. That smile, though seemingly radiant, definitely wasn’t meant to show goodwill.

Helian ZhaoYu walked towards the large spaceship near Li Qingyue, paused briefly, spoke to her and her parents, and then invited the nearby elders to board first. Afterwards, he himself also boarded, appearing very graceful and poised.

He nodded towards this side again, gave a slight smile, then disappeared into the cabin.

Qin Ming was certain this guy was very dangerous.

According to Pei Shuyan, Helian ZhaoYu was fond of wearing black.

Today, he seemed to have deliberately chosen the same white attire as Li Qingyue.

His silent gesture seemed to indicate something.

Could he be suggesting that he and Li Qingyue would travel deep into the Yewu World, joining forces together?

“My sister-in-law and her husband came,” Meng Xinghai spoke up, having not noticed Helian ZhaoYu’s actions.

Li Qingyue’s mother was his sister-in-law, and Li Qingyue’s father had saved his life. The families were very close, and he planned to go and greet them.

“Xiao Qin, for the sake of caution, you’d better not go,” Meng Xinghai said, to prevent attracting the attention of some people of the Immortal Road and causing an accident.

There, warships were densely packed, with all kinds of strong figures around. As a rising star on the Newborn Road, it’s best not to step forward too conspicuously.

Qin Ming grunted in a muffled response, saying nothing more.

Meng Xinghai moved away, entering the Immortal Road warship area.

Qin Ming thought of walking side by side with Li Qingyue on the Shuyu Riverbank, feeling a bit uneasy. Unfortunately, now he couldn’t even go forward to see them off.

With a swooshing sound, a figure flashed by—Li Qingyun, whom he hadn’t seen in a while.

“Master Li!” Qin Ming greeted.

“Xiao Qin, you are still the most comfortable to look at!” Li Qingyun said, with a smile, albeit with some weariness.

Neither of them mentioned the Immortal Control Sect, but both knew that all of this was related to the Helian Family.

“Xiao Qin, I never expected you to dig up the Essential Scripture of the Luofu Sect and give it to Qing Yue,” Li Qingyun said.

“That was just fragmented,” Qin Ming replied.

Li Qingyun secretly transmitted, “In the Outer World, someone already knows she practices the complete True Scripture. After all, there is the Sixth Realm Ancestor Master appearing there.”

Qin Ming immediately realized that this matter had leaked.

Initially, at the Luofu Immortal Mountain Ruins, it wasn’t just the dilapidated “True Inheritance One Page” made from Exotic Gold he dug up, but he also resonated with the scripture meaning of the Six Ding Divine Fire on the Furnace of Eight Trigrams.

Once Li Qingyue reached the Third Realm, she could practice the Sect Suppressing Scripture of the Luofu Sect that had been lost for centuries.

Moreover, even in the Outer World, some Ancestor Masters saw that she was perfectly aligned with the Close Immortal Item—Furnace of Eight Trigrams, suspecting she may have the Secret Technique to cultivate the Six Ding Divine Fire.

In this way, the value of the Furnace of Eight Trigrams would be immeasurable, potentially regaining its status as a sect-suppressing item.

“It’s not that Qing Yue wasn’t careful, but in the Outer World, not just one Ancestor Master, even an Old Heavenly Immortal with one foot in the Seventh Realm, with discerning eyes, Qing Yue simply couldn’t hide it,” Li Qingyun sighed.

In front, the warships were densely packed. Even transmitting secretly, he couldn’t mention the words ‘old monster.’

Qin Ming’s expression was serious. Ancestor-level figures already knowing about the Essential Scripture and the emergence of the Six Ding Divine Fire made the issue extremely serious.

In the past, the Luofu Sect and Immortal Control Sect were equally renowned. However, after the former failed to elevate a Blessed Land to a Grotto Heaven, the entire Blessed Land was destroyed, leading to its decline.

At that time, there were indeed some Immortal Seeds surviving, but on the day the Luofu Sect met its crisis, they vanished forever.

Some say he was taken away by other Taoist ‘old monsters’ and forced to reveal the True Scripture. Others say he was very astute, directly fleeing overseas and retiring.

One can imagine, even back then, some were after the Luofu Sect’s legacy.

Now, the complete Sect Suppressing Essential Scripture reappears in the Luofu line, the method of sacrificing and refining the Furnace of Eight Trigrams is there, surely some would be tempted.

In the Outer World, someone had thoroughly investigated this matter.

For example, the Immortal Control Sect had also delved deeply into it, down to the past and relationships between Qin Ming and Li Qingyue.

Even Li Qingyue’s gesture of personally going out in the name of seeing Qin Ming off to deliver the Life Changing Scripture, and giving Qin Ming one of the two Exotic Gold pieces she received, was understood very clearly.

Some even suspected whether the Root Scripture of the Luofu Sect and the method to cultivate the Six Ding Divine Fire were given to Li Qingyue by Qin Ming after he obtained them.

After all, both the Life Changing Scripture and Exotic Gold are of incredible value, yet she personally traveled far to deliver them to him.

In fact, when Li Qingyue sent these two Divine Objects, despite Qin Ming preparing a grand gift, he had not yet given her the complete Essential Scripture and the chapter recording the Six Ding Divine Fire.

Li Qingyun said, “Qing Yue herself took full responsibility, claiming the Essential Scripture and the Secret Technique of the Six Ding Divine Fire were discovered by her, having unexpectedly glimpsed the imprint left by the Ancestor Master of old.”

The other Ancestor Masters of the Outer World did not get entangled in this matter. They did not believe people from the Newborn Road could hear the residual Tao Rhythms of the Immortal Road Ancestor Master.

They thought that Li Qingyue and Qin Ming were lifelong friends from the past, and later developed mutual affection, explaining why she sent the Life Changing Scripture and Exotic Gold.

A thousand years ago, the Luofu Sect was in its prime. Otherwise, how could it dare to be the first to attempt elevating a Blessed Land to a Grotto Heaven?

Therefore, it’s impossible for their most precious “legacy” to appear without drawing attention.

“The Luofu Sect is now waning,” Li Qingyun sighed.

Qin Ming asked, “So, they can only watch as the Immortal Control Sect wants people and also the tomes and sect-suppressing heavy weapons?”

Li Qingyun replied, “The Great Grandmasters on the side of the Immortal Control Sect said this counts as an alliance; the two sects are like branches on the same tree, and will thus prosper together. Qing Yue is still Luofu Sect’s Immortal Seed, and the Immortal Control Sect will provide all kinds of rare resources to aid intense cultivation.”
