Peerless Young Master

The Blood Shadow was immediately excited. The young master had succeeded! He had taken root in the host and reshaped the strongest demonic embryo, so that he could look down upon the Transcendent Immortals in the future!

Psychologically, he was quite relieved. Zheng Wu was incredibly talented; even in the immortal realm behind the Great Curtain, he was hailed as a rare genius in recent times.

Furthermore, Zheng Wu possesses a few drops of golden blood from an unparalleled expert, making it perfectly normal for him to take down the "flesh and blood soil" of the mortal realm. How could he possibly fail?

But he still probed repeatedly, mentioning various coded phrases as agreed.

This time, Wang Xuan was very steady. He not only passed all the verifications, but also imitated Zheng Wu's words and actions without giving anything away.

The Blood Shadow lowered his voice and asked, "Young Master, should we take down the Zhong family soon? Or should we choose the Qin Family? I personally prefer the Zhong family; according to investigations from various parties, their secret collection is too rich."

He actually made a sound, and the blood mist enveloping his true bones vibrated. This made Wang Xuan glance at him, feeling a little reluctant; yet another "Inner Scenery Canned Good."

But Wang Xuan restrained himself. This was a capable subordinate who had once Transcendent Immortals and could do many things; now was not the time to reap the rewards.

He looked thoughtful and said, "Let me think about it some more. I won't act rashly."

"Yes, young master. However, to avoid any unforeseen complications, many people are watching. The Zhong family not only possesses top-tier rare treasures, but also the Supreme Ancient Text of Daoist Master — the Golden Bamboo Slip. Furthermore, even the legendary supreme secret manual of Daoist school — the Five-Colored Jade Book —is probably in their possession."

The Blood Shadow's eyes burned with desire. As he spoke, even his very bones resonated with the text. He yearned for it immensely; even someone like him, who had been an immortal for a long time, was thirsting for that scripture!

Wang Xuan smiled and said, "I am Wang Xuan now, and I have a good relationship with the two descendants of the Zhong family. I can take a shortcut, and the Supreme Secret Manual will not escape me!"

"Yes, being near the water tower gives you an advantage. I never imagined that this flesh and blood soil would have such a use." The Blood Shadow was overjoyed and laughed.

Suddenly, a hint of regret flashed deep in his eyes, which ordinary people would not see, but Wang Xuan, with his Spiritual Heavenly Eye, directly and keenly caught it.

Where did things go wrong again? He sighed helplessly. Something had gone wrong. He guessed that the person had noticed something and discovered something.

Sure enough, the Blood Shadow approached silently, then suddenly burst forth with dazzling crimson light. Its primordial spirit transformed into a crimson divine waterfall, attempting to rush into Wang Xuan's forehead, hoping to directly kill his primordial spirit and seize his physical body.

"Are you crazy? Do you want to take advantage of my weakness and kill your master?" Wang Xuan dodged the attack but did not immediately make a move. He wanted to figure out what went wrong.

"You killed the young master, ruined his path to supreme enlightenment, and you still dare to impersonate him!" The Blood Shadow was filled with rage and deep regret; the young master he had watched grow up had actually failed.

This was unacceptable to him. In his heart, the Peerless Young Master, with extraordinary talent, had actually fallen into the hands of a mortal host destined to become nourishment for flesh and blood.

He wouldn't tell the other party where he had slipped up; his eyes were utterly cold. His primordial spirit transformed into a wisp of smoke, attempting to enter Wang Xuan's body.

"It is clearly you who want to take root in my flesh and blood and take away everything that belongs to me, so why do you turn around and hate me?" Wang Xuan said calmly.

Then, not wanting to waste any more time, his body was brimming with vitality, his extraordinary power expanded, and his blood surged.

At this moment, he was in perfect harmony with his body and mind, his physical state was approaching perfection, and every move he made exuded the aura of immortals.

Wang Xuan took the initiative and, accompanied by billowing white immortal mist, with a boom, he directly used his physical body to fight against the opponent's primordial spirit, instantly shattering the crimson glow.

"You..." The Blood Shadow was startled. What kind of technique was this? The physical body could actually kill an invisible primordial spirit.

His condition is not much better than the previous person's; his primordial spirit was dismembered when he passed through the curtain, and he is now in his weakest state.

Not wanting to waste time, Wang Xuan pressed down the God Slaying Banner, which swept away the piece of true bone with a whoosh, leaving him feeling like a rootless duckweed, and he let out a scream.

Then, the flag slowly unfurled, imprisoning him. Fine cracks appeared on his primordial spirit. If the flag were to fall violently, his spiritual body would explode!

Wang Xuan used his Spiritual Heavenly Eye to read the mark of the primordial spirit, to identify and fill in the gaps in his understanding of what he had done wrong that led to the loss of a capable subordinate.

"I see. I didn't emit the faint aura of Heavenly Blood. Most importantly, the placental marks hadn't disappeared." Wang Xuan understood the reason, nodded, and said, "I will do better next time, flawlessly."

"Unbelievable! A Supernatural Practitioner in the mortal realm has actually turned the tables on us..." The Blood Shadow was unwilling to accept this; their side had suffered heavy losses this time. Most importantly, judging from the opponent's posture, they actually wanted to impersonate the young master, and the consequences would be quite serious.

He trembled, growing more and more frightened the more he thought about it. If he couldn't expose the other party soon, who knew what terrifying consequences might follow?

Wang Xuan whispered, "I made a mistake, and I have to bear the consequences. The only thing I can do is turn you into Immortal Bone Can."

The immortal from the Zheng family was stunned, then trembled with anger. "You made a mistake, and you mean you want me to bear the consequences?" He was so furious he couldn't stand it.

With a bang, Wang Xuan pressed down on the flag, shattering it. He showed no sympathy whatsoever. If the Zheng family wanted to strip him of everything, then let's see who has the last laugh.

Wang Xuan sat cross-legged, circulated the Supreme Scriptures, wiped away the nine dark red marks on his body, then took out a drop of Zheng Wu's Heavenly Blood and placed it into the Life Soil, from time to time emitting wisps of aura.

He reflected, saying, "We have lost two powerful followers who could have done many meaningful things. We must not let this happen again."

Finally, the third immortal from the Zheng family arrived, and this time everything went smoothly without any mishaps.

"Young master, are you feeling unwell?" This person was very concerned about his current condition.

Wang Xuan frowned and said, "After the main root of the Heavenly Medicine was planted, it lacked vitality and showed no signs of revival. You need to find a way to contact the behind the Great Curtain. I still need some Immortal Nectar and Five-Colored Soil from Mount Buzhou."

Clearly, what he said is untrue.

"Yes!" The person left and immediately went to think of a solution.

Wang Xuan's expression remained calm. He knew his secret might be exposed at any moment, so he decided to take advantage of the situation and make the most of it.

If Old Chen really found the Heavenly Medicine Seed of Shakyamuni, then it would be reasonable for him to prepare some Immortal Nectar and Five-Colored Soil around him in advance.

The fourth immortal from the Zheng family arrived. After a conversation, Wang Xuan told him, "While the Heavenly Blood and Heavenly Mandate taking root in the flesh and blood soil has yielded remarkable results, I feel that my spirit and blood energy are not stable enough in the short term. Especially with the extinction of the extraordinary, under such circumstances, I need some foundational divine objects and immortal resources. I need to solidify my foundation and cultivate the strongest demonic embryo!"

"Peerless Young Master has lofty ambitions and will surely become an unparalleled powerhouse!" The immortal from the Zheng family had a burning gaze, clasped his hands in a fist salute, retreated, and disappeared into the night.

A fifth Blood Shadow appeared and suggested to Wang Xuan that they should take down the Zhong family as soon as possible, saying, "The old master values the Five-Colored Jade Book and the Golden Bamboo Slip very much."

Wang Xuan nodded and said, "Yes, I know very well that those scriptures are not to be touched by others. You keep a close eye on them, and anyone who dares to make a move will be dealt with first."

Then he added, "Also, you need to thoroughly investigate who in each of the major factions is planning to target Wang Xuan. Keep an eye on them, stop them if you need to, and nip them in the bud if you need to. Hmm, nothing can happen to the people around Wang Xuan recently, otherwise, if something really happens, do you think I should avenge them?"

The bright moon hung high, and the night was serene and beautiful. Wang Xuan stood alone in the forest, feeling refreshed and invigorated. With a powerful camp supporting him, things were indeed going smoothly.

After he gave the order, a group of experts served him, saving him time and effort.

Afterwards, he spoke with Old Chen in Secret Language, informing him that everything was going smoothly and that he would go to the Zhong family's house to open the canned goods the next day.

Chen Yongjie immediately understood what was going on and said, "I want to bring my family!"

Wang Xuan told him to also pick up Qin Cheng and Professor Lin. He had immortal bones in his possession and was certain that they could open the Inner Scenery Realm. He wanted to give the people around him a baptism before the coming desolate era.

That night was not easy for any of the beings who came from behind the Great Curtain. Even those young people who were severely injured when they crossed over were originally masters of the eighth or even ninth level in the Human World.

But now, the overall size has shrunk, causing them great unease. They feel that the eternal night sky is now silent, and they will never see the dawn or the first light of day again.

"What happened tonight? Why did another collapse suddenly occur?"

Wang Xuan meditated quietly all night, and the spiritual fire entered every inch of his flesh and blood. His essence, Essence, Qi, and Spirit became one, and he felt better than ever before.

The spirit, rooted in the flesh and blood, is nourished by the blood and energy, growing ever stronger. The body, cleansed and nourished by the spirit, becomes increasingly pure, eliminating impurities. The blood glows, and a single drop of blood flows down, illuminating the darkness.

At dawn, Wang Xuan opened his eyes and began his journey home. In the morning, he arrived in Kun City, the Zhong family's stronghold.

He came to return to the Pool of Rebirth, and if he hadn't buried the dusty pool in the soil beforehand, he would have been in real trouble.

The Zhong family estate is large, with towering ancient trees, lush green grass, and a small lake not far away, filled with lotus flowers and koi carp swimming around, a place teeming with life amidst tranquility.

"Wang Xuan, you've finally arrived. After you took the Pool of Rebirth away, things were fine at first, but since yesterday, our house has been haunted. All sorts of noises have started to appear."

Zhong Cheng came over and told them in a low voice that all sorts of demons and monsters were testing the waters and were eager to make a move.

Fortunately, the Zhong family still possesses many rare treasures and other Great Killer Weapon.

The Old Zhong, placed on the nine-story Stone Pagoda on the artificial hill in the courtyard, glowed in the dead of night, having supposedly killed some monster, and had emitted a mournful scream.

"That might be the Demon Refining Tower!" Wang Xuan said. He had already realized that the thing was extraordinary. It was no wonder that the powerful figures behind the Great Curtain were eyeing this place; there were indeed too many good things there.

"There's also a Large Bronze Furnace that glowed last night, as if it's taking something in." Zhong Cheng shook his head. It was too chaotic at night. They really had to leave; they couldn't stay at New Star any longer.

"Look at that inscription, it's an incense burner enshrined in the Daoist Ancestral Court, how extravagant!" Wang Xuan's eyes widened when he saw it last time.

"That grandson is here again, looking for my sister again." Zhong Cheng looked into the distance; several people had come to visit the Zhong family, and his expression wasn't very pleasant.

Cao Qingyu arrived, accompanied by several young men and women, all descendants of Transcendent Immortals. They possessed an ethereal aura, with wisps of white mist swirling around them.

One of the handsome young men spoke up, "That Wang Xuan is here again. Is he going to ruin Brother Cao's plans again? Last time Brother Cao just laughed it off and left. We can't let him get away with it this time."

A woman with a beautiful face, surrounded by white mist, though not a stunning beauty, certainly possessed an ethereal charm.

Her strength behind the Great Curtain was close to that of an Earth Immortal, but it had shrunk considerably. She whispered, "This Wang Xuan is crucial. Everyone speculates that he opened the Inner Scenery Realm too early. We need him. Brother Cao's forbearance is mainly because he wants him to guide the Patriarch into the mortal world."

A tall, strong man spoke up, "Last night, the aftershocks of the extraordinary realm collapsed again, and the curtain has darkened even more. The powerful figures behind the Great Curtain are all restless, and they are likely to cross over to other realms. We must also take action in advance and prepare to receive them."

Cao Qingyu nodded and said, "I received a secret report that some changes have occurred. Plans can't keep up with changes, so it's time to make a decision. However, we must take down the Zhong family."

At the same time, some people from the Zhong family came to visit. Kong Yun, Great Immortal Huang Ming, and others who had been on a two-day trip to the New Moon came to visit. Some of the Zhong family's things were too rare and precious, and had long been coveted by the creatures behind the Great Curtain.

Next, the third group of people arrived, led by a woman. Judging by her face alone, she had exquisite features, a pure and ethereal beauty, and an otherworldly air, untouched by the mundane world.

She had a fantastic figure, but her attire was rather... worldly, unlike that of a being emerging from behind the Great Curtain. She was wearing hot pants that revealed her long, snow-white legs, paired with a simple T-shirt on top, her long hair flowing, and she was graceful and elegant.

Zhong Cheng gestured with his chin, indicating that Wang Xuan should look over, and said, "See this? This is Zhou Shiqian, my sister's best friend. She's the one who makes my sister feel pressured. She has an ethereal aura, there's nothing I can do about it."

"Your house is really lively," Wang Xuan said. These are all descendants of Transcendent Immortals, and they naturally have something to ask for here, having their eyes on some strange objects.

"They can do whatever they want after we leave, but we can't do anything reckless now." Zhong Cheng was very open-minded. Then he asked, "Old Wang, what's your situation right now? Can you beat up that Cao Qingyu? I really don't like him."

Wang Xuan looked over there and said, "Most likely, he doesn't like either of us either, and thinks we're in his way."

"Beat him up!" Zhong Cheng muttered. How dare he set his sights on his sister, hoping to further his schemes to seize the Zhong family's assets? He deserves to be blown up by a warship.
