Exiled Immortal Wing

"Daoist Friend Xuanqing, as agreed earlier—let each of us rely on our own fate, shall we?"

Di Jun spoke with a smile on his face.

The two brothers treated Xuanqing with such courtesy not solely because of his unmatched Law of Speed.

A person could pretend to be weak, but they must never truly be weak.

The two brothers also sensed a thick aura of threat from Xuanqing.

That threat was even heavier than the pressure they felt from nearly ten Grand Unity Golden Immortals joining forces.

It was the combination of these two factors that truly explained why Di Jun and Tai Yi, both proud and unruly beings, treated Xuanqing with such respect.

A being at the Early-stage Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm who could give them such a sense of danger was naturally someone they wished to befriend.

"Then I thank both Daoist Friends Di Jun and Tai Yi."

Xuanqing was confident about the wing, for the closer he drew to it, the stronger the call he felt in his heart.

This meant that he, Xuanqing, was the one fated to possess the wing.

As the saying goes, people choose spiritual treasures, but spiritual treasures also choose their masters.

Especially in a world like the Primordial Wilderness, where fate governs opportunities.

Since the wing sent him such a strong summons, it was likely that he was the destined one.

However, Xuanqing did not know whether Di Jun or Tai Yi felt a similar call in their hearts.

The three experts hesitated no longer and directly approached the wing.

As the wing sensed their approach, it began to tremble.

It seemed to be choosing among Xuanqing, Di Jun, and Tai Yi—selecting the master most suited to it.

Xuanqing revealed his Law of Speed, no longer concealing it.

He guessed that the reason the wing had sent him such a strong summons was most likely related to his Law of Speed.

After all, this wing was a spiritual treasure tied to the Law of Speed.

"Shua!"

Sure enough, the moment Xuanqing displayed his Law of Speed, the wing did not hesitate. It flew before Xuanqing at a speed invisible even to their Grand Unity Golden Immortal eyes.

Its swiftness startled Xuanqing, Di Jun, and Tai Yi alike.

"Such speed! Even at this pace, it already surpasses my True Body's full speed.

And this is its speed without a master. If it were refined and claimed, its speed would likely be even greater!"

Xuanqing did not hesitate to take the wing into his possession.

As the wing entered his hand, a ball of information light swiftly passed from the wing into Xuanqing's Primordial Spirit.

This was not his first time acquiring a spiritual treasure—the same had happened when he obtained the Weak Water Cup.

Thus, when the light entered his Primordial Spirit, he did not panic.

Exiled Immortal Wing—Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure. Possesses unparalleled Law of Speed, capable of enhancing the wielder's speed by one major realm!

Moreover, the more restrictions refined, the greater the enhancement. Refining all restrictions would enable long-distance teleportation!

"Sss!"

After Xuanqing finished absorbing the information on the Exiled Immortal Wing, even though his Main Body possessed a World-Opening Supreme Treasure like the Taiji Diagram, he still drew in a sharp breath.

Used well, this Exiled Immortal Wing was nearly on par with an Innate Supreme Treasure.

Having obtained the Exiled Immortal Wing, Xuanqing also understood why it had emerged just as he passed through this area.

It turned out that the Exiled Immortal Wing had sensed the Law of Speed Xuanqing had been using while traveling, and thus it manifested.

Spiritual treasures also choose their masters.

And Xuanqing was the master the Exiled Immortal Wing had selected.

As for why it had not chosen him immediately earlier—it was because Xuanqing had concealed his Law of Speed.

Meanwhile, the Golden Crow Transforming into Rainbow Technique of Di Jun and Tai Yi also touched upon the domain of speed.

The Exiled Immortal Wing was naturally deliberating.

However, once Xuanqing revealed his Law of Speed, the Exiled Immortal Wing confirmed that he was the master it had summoned.

Thus, it unhesitatingly threw itself into Xuanqing's embrace.

"In that case, I thank both Daoist Friends Di Jun and Tai Yi. This Poor Daoist will accept the Exiled Immortal Wing."

He clasped his hands in a polite salute to Di Jun and Tai Yi, casually revealing the wing's name.

Playing along with pleasantries—Xuanqing naturally knew how to do that.

"Daoist Friend Xuanqing is too courteous. It is merely that you are fated with this spiritual treasure."

Poor Daoist and Tai Yi merely went with the flow.

Exiled Immortal Wing—a fine name, quite fitting for Lingbao.

Then I congratulate you, Daoist Friend.

Di Jun likewise spoke pleasantries; as for what he truly thought, Xuanqing could not know.

"Congratulations, Daoist Friend Xuanqing."

Tai Yi also spoke, as if he begrudged each word, falling silent after.

"Daoist Friend, this is my Message Jade Talisman. If you encounter trouble or think of me, you may use this talisman to send me a message. For matters within my power, I will naturally assist."

As if reading the intent to leave in Xuanqing's eyes, Di Jun produced a Message Jade Talisman and pressed it into Xuanqing's hand.

Xuanqing did indeed intend to depart. Now that he had obtained the Exiled Immortal Wing, he ought to hurry and seek out Ancestor Reincarnation, lest Ancestor Reincarnation be swayed by Hongjun and leave early for the Western Continent.

Xuanqing accepted the Message Jade Talisman Di Jun had offered and likewise gave his own in return.

Only after Di Jun received Xuanqing's Message Jade Talisman did a knowing smile appear on his face.

Xuanqing could guess at his thoughts—merely that, seeing Xuanqing accept the talisman, Di Jun believed he had been won over by the two brothers' gesture of goodwill.

In truth, Xuanqing himself was no less eager to hitch a ride on Di Jun and Tai Yi's coattails.

On one hand, he could infiltrate the enemy Demon Race from within.

On the other, he could openly cultivate using the future resources of the Heavenly Court of the Demon Race.

It was a twofold gain.

"Two Daoist Friends, I have urgent matters to attend to, so I take my leave here. Another day, I will surely call upon you."

Xuanqing's resolve to leave was firm, and he promptly bid farewell.

"Do you need the two of us to help?"

Seeing this, Di Jun sought to further ingratiate himself with Xuanqing. Naturally, he did not truly wish to help; it was merely pleasantry.

"Thank you for your kindness, Daoist Friend. It is but a trifle; I am sufficient on my own. Why trouble you?"

Xuanqing was actually tempted to toy with Di Jun. If he truly asked for help, what posture would Di Jun strike? Would he balk if Xuanqing actually took him up on it? That would be amusing indeed.

However, the matter of the Law of Reincarnation should not invite complications, so Xuanqing set aside his playful intent.

"Then take care, Daoist Friend."

Di Jun breathed a sigh of relief when Xuanqing declined his offer of help. He had truly feared Xuanqing would shamelessly ask for assistance—then would he help or not? He had no idea how to choose. Fortunately, Xuanqing did not seek aid.

"Farewell. Take care, two Daoist Friends."

Xuanqing wasted no more words, transforming into a streak of light and vanishing before the assembled experts.

Seeing no further interest here, Di Jun and Tai Yi executed the Golden Crow Transforming into Rainbow Technique and departed.

Only the nine Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal experts remained.

Gazing at the direction Xuanqing had gone, the nine Zenith Heaven Golden Immortals wore contemplative looks.

"Everyone, how about we form an alliance?"

One Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal spoke first, his cultivation at the mid-stage of the realm.

"That Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal was merely at the initial stage. Earlier, with those two experts guarding him, we could not act. Now that they have parted ways, this is our chance. Let us join forces, slay that being, and contend for the Lingbao by our own abilities—what say you?"
