Trust

He has felt the influence of Heavenly Dao "transformation of spirits" on him Gu Jinlai.

Even after only a short while, he felt his thoughts and spirituality slowing down.

"My Heavenly Dao Transformation is not yet complete, and since it targets spiritual beings, its suppression of us cultivators is not strong. However, once I activate it, it can still cause True Immortals to have their spirituality scattered and their thoughts difficult to concentrate. In life-and-death battles, they are constantly affected by the Heavenly Dao Transformation. I don't need to say how great the impact is."

Zhao Xidao.

"Can the power of Heavenly Dao be projected outwards?"

Gu Jinlai have inquired about this.

Then he thought of the Zhou Tian Ju Xing Grand Array set up by the Holy Dynasty.

If the Holy Dynasty can project the power of its grotto-heavens to the thirty-six outer cities, how much more so the Xuanxian Realm, whose cultivation civilization is clearly more advanced?

His question was quickly answered by Zhao Xi: "Yes, but it will consume spiritual energy. The farther the projection goes, the greater the consumption of spiritual energy."

Then, he turned his gaze to Gu Jinlai: "You are walking the path of the Innate Saint. In any world, the Innate Saint is a darling of heaven and earth. Moreover, this is a legitimate route that leads directly to the Three Thousand Great Daos. The artificially created Heavenly Dao has little influence on you. In addition, Taibai and others do not know much about you. If you can infiltrate the Myriad Stars Sword Sect in the Xuanxian Realm, even if you only interfere with the operation of the Myriad Stars Sword Sect's Heavenly Dao for a moment, I can completely merge with the Heavenly Dao Transformation Spirit and awaken it. The balance of this war against the Demonic Beasts will then completely tilt towards us."

"Go to the Mystic Immortal Realm."

Gu Jinlai understood that Zhao Xi wanted him to go to the Xuanxian Realm to restrain the Wanxing Sword Sect.

This idea coincided with his own.

Whether it's Demonic Beasts or the Myriad Stars Sword Sect, they are all major threats to the human race in the Longevity Realm.

However, unlike Zhao Xi's hope that he would go to the Xuanxian Realm to restrain the Wanxing Sword Sect, he was thinking about whether he could directly control the Wanxing Sword Sect, and completely transform the power of the Wanxing Sword Sect, and even the Xuanxian Realm, into the power of the Changsheng Realm, and use this method of dimensional reduction to defeat the Demonic Beasts invasion.

Just like on Blue Star, when two people are competing for a position in a company, their abilities are evenly matched. But what if he could simply buy the company...?

The situation will be completely different.

"Even if Zhao Xi can awaken the Heavenly Dao he has nurtured, he can only ultimately achieve victory in this war between the two realms by driving the Demonic Beasts out of the Immortal Realm. However, the threat of Demonic Beasts will always exist, not to mention the terrifying life forms in the Myriad Star Sword Sect, the Profound Immortal Realm, and the depths of the Spirit Realm..."

A glint of light flashed in Gu Jinlai's eyes. "But if I could control the Myriad Stars Sword Sect like I controlled the Heavenly Realm... not only would I solve the problem of the Myriad Stars Sword Sect, but I could also use it as a shield to block the Xuanxian Realm's covetousness of the Longevity Realm. Furthermore, with the help of the Myriad Stars Sword Sect, Demonic Beasts would find it difficult to have any impact on the Longevity Realm. If I could further obtain the method by which the Xuanxian Realm defeated that terrifying evil god back then... the terrifying life form deep in the Spirit Realm would also have hope of fighting against it..."

A triple win!

This is truly killing three birds with one stone!

"You possess another path to the Mystic Immortal Realm?"

This Gu Jinlai.

"Right."

Zhao Xi nodded. "In addition, my previous dispatch of three groups of people into the Myriad Stars Sword Sect was not without its gains. At least, it has laid a foundation in the Myriad Stars Sword Sect, which can give you an identity without any flaws to infiltrate the Myriad Stars Sword Sect."

He paused slightly at this point, then continued, "I know this mission is dangerous, but if it succeeds..."

"I can go to the Myriad Star Sword Sect."

Gu Jinlai: "However, I need your help."

"You said that as long as it's possible, we will do our best to fulfill your request."

Zhao Xi said solemnly.

"Cave Heaven Stones, I need a lot of Cave Heaven Stones."

Gu Jinlai, people have always been outspoken. "Let's start with a thousand portions."

"One thousand portions of Cave Heaven Stones..."

Zhao Xi nodded, but then asked with some confusion, "Are you going to help others build their own grotto-heavens or cultivate yourself?"

Is there a difference?

"Certainly."

Zhao Xi said, "If you want to help others build their own grotto heavens, I have 1,600 grotto heaven stones in reserve. With the combined power of the Immortal Kingdom, it wouldn't be a problem to gather 4,000 grotto heaven stones for you. But if you want to use them for your own cultivation and to comprehend special Great Dao Principle, I suggest you choose to exchange them with top-quality materials in the Xuanxian Realm."

At this point, he added, "One Cave Heaven Stone is roughly equivalent to ten top-tier materials here, but in the Xuanxian Realm, Cave Heaven Stones and top-tier materials such as Immortal Refined Gold can even reach a ratio of eight to one, or even ten to one."

"One to ten, ten to one..."

Some people, Gu Jinlai, are quite alarmed. "A price difference of over a hundred times?!"

"Yes."

Zhao Xi nodded. "Things like Cave Heaven Stones can be condensed by a True Immortal as long as they are willing to go to a place with strong spatial fluctuations and spend time. But top-tier materials... such as Immortal Refined Gold, which do not have high requirements for spirituality, are better. However, materials like Heavenly Spirit Wood, which have strict requirements for the environment, are almost impossible to produce in the Xuanxian Realm."

"Then give me the top-quality materials."

This Gu Jinlai.

"Alright, ten thousand portions of each of the following: Immortal Refined Gold, Heavenly Spirit Wood, Floating Water, Six Yang Flame Crystal, Obsidian Divine Stone, Thunder Magnetic Yuan Gold, Falling Feather Spirit Liquid, and Ice Heart Jade Marrow. Do you think that's enough? If not, I'll get more from other places."

Zhao Xidao.

"Ten thousand portions of each..."

Even though his status and position have risen far above what Gu Jinlai were before, and he has also obtained the Aries Star Palace and possesses a considerable amount of materials, he still felt a sense of awe upon hearing Zhao Xi's words.

As expected of the ruler of the immortal kingdom, he is incredibly wealthy and powerful.

That's enough.

This Gu Jinlai.

"This is a special Dao artifact. Because its main material comes from the divine beast Mirage Dragon, it is called Mirage Dragon Pearl. It was crafted by the great Heavenly Lords over the years. Its main function is illusion. I think it will be of great help to you infiltrating the Myriad Star Sword Sect."

Zhao Xi took something out.

Finally, he added, "Although the passage I control uses the star gate technology of the Celestial Master civilization, due to the difficulty of entering the Xuanxian Realm, we can only send you there during the window period. The window period is one and a half years, and it will open again in three months. During these three months, I will tell you all the information I have about the Xuanxian Realm, hoping to make your movements in the Xuanxian Realm smoother."

Gu Jinlai, people have received this Dao artifact.

He could sense that the value of this Dao artifact was probably no less than that of an ordinary divine weapon.

After a long pause, he finally said, "Eighty thousand top-grade materials and a Dao artifact whose value is no less than that of a divine weapon. Does Immortal Lord Zhao trust me so much that he's not afraid I'll take these things and leave?"

"Afraid."

Zhao Xi responded magnanimously, then laughed and said, "However, I have carefully learned about the Ancient True Immortal from the information Jin Haoran sent me beforehand. From the various deeds of the Ancient True Immortal in Qian Tian and the Holy Dynasty, I believe that the Ancient True Immortal, like me, is also a person who cares about the human race in the Longevity Realm."

Clearly, although this immortal lord resides in the immortal kingdom, he is still able to keep a thorough understanding of external news.

It's estimated that not only Qian Tian, but also forces like Yinglong Holy Land have spies from immortal kingdoms, the only difference being the number.

"Furthermore, if the ancient immortals truly harbor any ill will towards our immortal kingdom, they only need to go to the Blood Swamp Demon Abyss to kick us while we're down. Given the current situation of the immortal kingdom, the best outcome would be to fight the demons and Demonic Beasts to the death."

Zhao Xi continued, "Actually, I don't have many choices. Under these circumstances, the only thing I can do is to give you, True Immortal Gu, my complete trust."

"Gambling again?"

This Gu Jinlai.

"This isn't a good habit, but people always need to have some faith and hope, right?"

As Zhao Xi spoke, his voice inexplicably lowered. "It is precisely because I still have hope in my heart that I have been able to carry their hopes and expectations to this day, even as I have watched my disciples, friends, and even relatives perish on the battlefield against the Demonic Beasts."

Looking at him from Gu Jinlai, one can vaguely understand why Zhang Tianye and others feel reverence when they mention him.

Why would the various immortal lords willingly submit to him, acknowledge him as the ruler of their immortal kingdoms, and obey his commands?

He certainly possesses a unique personal charm.

After a moment, Zhao Xi suddenly thought of something and said with a solemn expression, "In addition, Ancient True Immortal should know that for Celestial Immortals, the Cave Heaven is their most important core. Similarly, Celestial Immortals have a very thorough control over the Cave Heaven. When Ancient True Immortal stepped into my Cave Heaven, I sensed a terrifying energy contained within you."

These words quickly reminded people Gu Jinlai: "The celestial beings' control over the grotto-heavens is actually this strong."

"Right."

Zhao Xi solemnly warned, "If you are hiding any secrets, never rashly step into the grotto of a celestial being."

"I see."

Gu Jinlai, they have all nodded in agreement.

He then added, "Does Immortal Lord Zhao know of the existence of the God of the Underworld?"

"There are gods of the underworld surrounding the Holy Dynasty!?"

Zhao Xi's expression changed, and then he solemnly said, "That's right. As one of the most powerful human forces besides our Immortal Kingdom, it is perfectly reasonable for the Devil Master Cangming to leave a Nether God there as a precaution."

Hearing this Gu Jinlai, it doesn't seem surprising.

The Immortal Kingdom knew far more than he had imagined.

This obviously includes the existence of special demon gods like the God of the Underworld.

"The God of the Underworld is a crucial medium for the Devil Master Cangming to create his avatar. Once it appears, we must destroy it as quickly as possible..."

As Zhao Xi spoke, he pondered, "Among the nine immortals, those with the strongest immortal combat power cannot escape in a short time. Otherwise, we could use the power of the Transcendent Heavenly Dao, with the Underworld God as a medium, to injure the Cangming Devil Master, thereby buying time for the war between the two races."

"Transformation of the Heavenly Dao? The power of the Transformation of the Heavenly Dao can be used?"

"No, but I can separate a portion of its power and seal it away, releasing it when needed by integrating it into other attacks."
