Wutian Enemy

Jin Hong, Gaia, and the others were less interested in exchanging ideas with Gu Jinlai and more in forming a group to leave the Human Immortal Palace's headquarters in Orange State.

On the way back, everyone was on high alert and dared not relax for a moment.

The True Lord of Spirit Refining, Spirit Transformation, Primordial Spirit never stopped their explorations.

Since the men and women accompanying them were all elites, with at least some who had cultivated True Qi, they were able to move at an extreme speed.

At this rate, they can escape the territory of the Immortal Palace in just one or two days.

At this moment, Gu Jinlai was communicating with Jin Hong through divine sense.

He was clearly surprised when he heard Jin Hong mention the news about the Immortal Refined Gold.

"The Great Qian Royal Family?"

"Yes."

Jin Hong nodded. "In the past hundred years, although Jiang Tianji has not achieved much since taking the throne, he has accomplished one great thing, which is to collect all the fine gold in the world and bring it to the capital. In the entire Qian Tian Realm, except for the gold mine in Yuezhou, all the gold mines and special metal deposits are controlled by the Great Qian royal family. The mines that have fallen into the hands of the people are all mines with extremely low yields and are difficult to mine."

He continued, "For the past hundred years, the Great Qian royal family has been trying to collect Immortal Refined Gold, hoping to cut off this material with the best circulation and comprehensive properties, so as to prevent the birth of saints at the stage of the Divine Body, maintain the rule of the Great Qian royal family, and avoid the chaos of the Heavenly Emperor a hundred years ago. Therefore, the amount of Immortal Refined Gold possessed by the Great Qian royal family has reached an absolutely astonishing number."

Gu Jinlai, one can't help but think of the more than four hundred pieces of immortal refined gold collected by Dragon Sparrow Manor.

The development of Dragon Sparrow Manor almost came to a complete standstill due to the need for these immortal refined golds.

Their purpose in gathering these immortal refined gold pieces was to exchange them with the royal family for a Creation Immortal Fruit that could extend one's lifespan by sixty years.

In other words, these immortal refined gold pieces will eventually return to the hands of the Great Qian imperial family.

It is evident that they used this method, which is equivalent to a "public conspiracy," to ensure that the immortal gold did not flow out, ultimately achieving a monopoly on this resource.

"Master Jin Hong, producing this intelligence... doesn't seem to make much sense, does it? You wouldn't be suggesting that I follow in the footsteps of the Heavenly Emperor and break into the royal palace to plunder, would you?"

Gu Jinlai: "Although there is only one saint in the royal family, Imperial Tutor Taiyuan, there are quite a few Celestial Person serving the royal family. Not to mention Wang Yizhi, Qian Huashan, and Zhao Riyue among the six regents, General Li Xingdou, Duke Qin Yujing, and Commander of the Three Guards Jiang Yinlong, which one of them is not a famous figure in the Celestial Person realm?"

Even a starved camel is bigger than a horse.

The reason why the Great Qian royal family has been able to rule the Qian Heaven Realm for so long is partly due to internal discord within the Three Pure Ones Temple, but most importantly, it is because of their own powerful foundation.

Having the fortune of the Qian Heaven, they have a huge advantage in cultivating the relationship between Celestial Person.

Two hundred years ago, before the Great Qian had expanded, it could usually maintain one or two, or even two or three, Celestial Person at the same time. Now, the Qian Heaven and Earth Plate has expanded several times compared to two hundred years ago, and its fortune has increased by more than a little bit.

Before the chaos caused by Demonic Beasts and monsters and the chaos caused by the Heavenly Emperor, the fortune of the Great Qian Dynasty was almost enough to nurture a Celestial Person being every few years.

"The Ancient Heavenly Lord is joking. The Great Qian Dynasty is so powerful that no one can rival it unless one becomes a saint."

Jin Hong chuckled dryly, "What I mean is, if the Ancient Heavenly Lord really needs a large amount of Immortal Refined Gold, he can trade with the Great Qian Royal Family, just like the last time with the Sharp Sword and Heavy Cannon."

Sharp sword and heavy cannon?

They quickly realized what was Gu Jinlai.

Blackbird Fighter!

This time, the Great Qian imperial family has set its sights on the Black Bird fighter jet.

The Blackbird fighter jet swept across overseas territories, especially in the East China Sea naval battle, where it destroyed over a thousand warships of the East China Sea Allied Forces in one fell swoop. This combat power...

Even Celestial Person would be amazed by it.

Wouldn't the Great Qian Dynasty want that?

However, compared to the last time when they directly sent people to buy, this time they were obviously much more cautious.

After all...

The eight Xuan Niao fighter jets are a huge deterrent.

Their combat strength may not be as good as that of the Celestial Person, but their amazing flight speed and ability to fight continuously make them just as difficult to deal with as the Celestial Person.

Lingxiao City has eight similar fighter jets.

Under these circumstances, the Great Qian royal family clearly recognized the power of Lingxiao City, to the point that they had to sound out the situation before even considering purchasing the Xuan Bird fighter jet.

And those who probed for information...

All eyes, from Gu Jinlai, fell on Jin Hong: "I never imagined that Master Jin would have such a relationship."

Since it was clear that he intended to reveal his identity, Jin Hong did not hide it too much. He just smiled and said, "If the Ancient Heavenly Lord is willing to sell such a high-level war Spirit Artifact, I think the royal family will definitely not be stingy with the Immortal Refined Gold. In fact... even the complete Creator's inheritance in the royal family's collection may not be out of the question."

"The legacy of the Creator".

Gu Jinlai, there have been those who have been moved by this.

But...

The Xuanniao fighter jet is not yet ready for export.

"I will consider it."

"If the Ancient Heavenly Lord is interested, we can make the contact on his behalf."

Jin Hong said with a smile.

Gu Jinlai and others nodded.

He looked at Xu Zhenlou...

No wonder the Ruins of Truth are so mysterious; no one knows where their headquarters are.

Furthermore, they seemed to possess all the intelligence in the world, appearing to be omniscient. It turned out that the Great Qian royal family was behind them.

This should be a pawn planted by the Great Qian royal family into the Ten Demonic Sects, with the aim of monitoring the movements of the Ten Demonic Sects, or more specifically, the Earth Immortal Palace and the Human Immortal Palace.

Currently, the various sects of the demonic path are showing signs of splitting, with one side led by the Blood Demon Emperor Luo and the other side revering Lingxiao City. Naturally, Jin Hong could not sit still.

The procession moves forward.

They encountered no danger along the way, and by the evening of the second day, the group had already left Orange State.

As they left the territory of the Immortal Palace, the members of the major sects simultaneously breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the danger has not yet passed, there is a very different concept between encountering danger in Orange State and encountering danger outside of Orange State.

At least in the territories outside of Orange State, there's no need to worry about being surrounded and killed by a large army.

"Gentlemen, now that we've arrived, it's time for us to take our leave."

Gaia from the Earth Mother Goddess Cult stepped forward and addressed the crowd, especially Gu Jinlai, who had the Gu Jinlai Di Luo: "However, the Earth Immortal Palace and the Human Immortal Palace have joined forces to form the True Immortal Palace. They have wolfish ambitions and will certainly not give up easily. We should still be careful."

"We certainly won't place our hopes on Di Luo's keeping his word."

Gu Jinlai a slight nod.

"It seems that Gu Tianjun has the same idea as us. Since we know that the True Immortal Palace will not let things go easily, in order to avoid being defeated one by one, I think it would be best for us major sects to form an alliance and advance and retreat together."

Gaia looked at the Gu Jinlai and asked, "What does the ancient Heavenly Emperor think?"

"An alliance... is very necessary."

Gu Jinlai immediately saw through Gaia's thoughts. "Our Lingxiao City, Cold Moon Sect, Purgatory Sect, and Huangquan Sect have already formed a Tiannan Alliance. Soon we will invite the Demon God Sect to join, and we will also invite the Zixiao Sword Sect. Why don't we also invite the Earth Mother God Sect to join our Tiannan Alliance and become a member of the alliance?"

"The Tiannan Alliance has limitations, and the area south of the Tianhe River is ultimately just a newly added territory of the Great Qian Dynasty. How can its foundation compare to that of the area north of the Tianhe River? This can be seen from the fact that none of the major forces south of the Tianhe River have even a single Celestial Person."

Gaia said, "Our purpose in establishing the alliance is to fight against the True Immortal Palace in order to protect ourselves. The alliance naturally needs to have sufficient response efficiency. I think it would be better to place the alliance in the Oasis."

Upon hearing this, Lu Zhanxian said indifferently, "Lady Gaia's thoughts are far too blatant. Shouldn't Lady Gaia be chosen as the leader of the alliance?"

"Of course not."

Gaia said without hesitation, "Since the alliance headquarters has been moved to the Oasis, our Earth Mother Goddess Cult should avoid suspicion. We are willing to honor the Ancient Heavenly Lord as the leader of the alliance."

Gu Jinlai hearing this.

But he quickly came to a realization.

The nail that sticks out gets hammered down.

If he Gu Jinlai become the leader of this alliance, the True Immortal Palace would target him first when it decides to take action against them.

However, as long as the headquarters is located in the Oasis, his base in the south will remain unchanged Gu Jinlai, and the operation of the alliance will still depend on the Earth Mother Goddess Cult.

It's just a pity...

Gaia's cultivation as a Celestial Person is remarkable, but when it comes to these scheming methods, she is underestimating others.

However, this is a normal phenomenon.

Many cultivators are accustomed to solving problems with their own martial arts.

This may not be the best way, but it is the most efficient way.

In a world where such people possess immense power, and often hold high positions, their words and will often represent the truth, so naturally they are too lazy to think too much.

On Blue Star, only nations of equal standing engage in intrigue and scheming. If a powerful nation wants to deal with a weak one, what need is there for conclusive evidence?

Any excuse could be used to overthrow the regime of that weak country.

Even if that excuse is incredibly clumsy and full of loopholes.

"There are many details to be discussed regarding the alliance. If Lady Gaia is willing to discuss them in detail, you might as well come with me to Lingxiao City. I can then directly summon the leaders of the Cold Moon Sect, the Purgatory Sect, the Yellow Spring Sect, and even the Demon God Sect to Lingxiao City. What do you think, Lady Gaia?"

He said with a smile, "Gu Jinlai."

"Heading to Lingxiao City..."

Gaia was somewhat at a loss for words when she heard this.

Just then, as if he had received some information, Jin Hong suddenly said, "Something's up."

Everyone quickly became alert.

Gu Lanxin immediately brought out an improved version of a close-range artillery capable of detecting divine sense and Qi and Blood, and scanned it, but the result was...

No data was obtained.

"There are no Demonic Beasts or experts above the Spirit Refining in the vicinity."

Gu Lanxin continued, then added, "Perhaps they possess extraordinary techniques to suppress their own Qi and Blood and spiritual energy fluctuations to an extreme degree..."

Before she could finish speaking, Jin Hong, who had been investigating further, sent word. "It's poisonous creatures! Centipedes, scorpions, venomous snakes—these creatures are carefully tamed by humans, and their toxicity is astonishing! Even though cultivators at the Primordial Spirit, or even the Spirit Transformation and Spirit Refining realms, can control themselves with their divine senses and expel the toxins that have invaded their bodies quickly, it still takes time. Encountering such extremely venomous creatures that can kill someone in a very short time is just as dangerous, posing a life-or-death risk."

"Drug control..."

Gaia's expression was somewhat grim. "During the reign of the Heavenly Emperor, a large number of Heavenly Lords and Heavenly Masters were captured, and Spirit Artifact and beasts were made for them. Although the Nine-Section King, the Crimson Armor King, and the Python Dragon King were not the most powerful beasts, they were the most troublesome and terrifying in the universe. The prototypes of these three spiritual beasts were centipedes, scorpions, and venomous snakes, and they possessed the ability to control poisonous insects. After the destruction of the Heavenly Immortal Palace, the three spiritual beasts fell into the hands of the Human Immortal Palace..."

After saying that, she looked up and gazed in one direction. "Wu Tiandi is here."
