What is called tempering, isn't it just causing trouble everywhere?

Because Chu Yuan had used an Imperial Edict to descend a wisp of his divine sense, completely isolating himself and the Lord of the Restricted Area from the outside world, the five True Immortals of the Chu Clan and the two boys of the Lord of the Restricted Area had no idea what the two big shots were discussing. At this moment, these seven pairs of eyes were staring at each other, their faces showing more or less awkwardness.

Especially the two boys of the Lord of the Restricted Area; they had racked their brains but could never have imagined that it would end up like this. They absolutely did not expect that the other side's Immortal King would actually cross the barriers of the Great World to descend in person.

If the other party decided to hold a grudge, the two of them would be completely finished...

On the other side, in order to break the current awkwardness, Brother Chu, being the strongest among those present, thought for a moment and asked the two boys.

"If I am not mistaken, you two have actually already died, right? You are able to appear here by relying on the Immortal King power of the Lord of the Restricted Area, am I correct?"

Upon hearing this, the two boys did not intend to hide anything and decisively nodded.

"That is correct. In the endless years past, both of us, and even our Master himself, have fallen. Our Master still retains a wisp of obsession, and we rely entirely on the power of our Master's obsession to maintain our current Dharma Bodies and reappear in the world."

So it was as expected!

The five True Immortals of the Chu Clan silently exchanged glances, finishing their silent communication.

Immortal Kings are indeed powerful to the extreme, known as supreme existences that transcend time. Every Immortal King possesses the ability to overturn Heaven and Earth and rewrite the rules. If one chants an Immortal King's true name, it is even highly likely to attract the attention of that Immortal King!

Even if they have fallen, as long as their true name is called, they can be summoned back from the River of Time!

As long as an Immortal King is willing, they can destroy millions of great universes with a flick of a finger. Wherever their eyesight reaches, all things can be extinguished, the order of the heavens can be shattered, and the Great Dao can be blown apart. They can even trace back the River of Time, overlook the past, present, and future, and even travel against the flow of time to erase variables within it, crossing the River of Time to strike without fear of karma!

This is an Immortal King!

However, for such a powerful Immortal King, if only a wisp of obsession remains, it must surely cost a staggering price to maintain the current Dharma Bodies of two boys!

Such a feat is not something an ordinary Immortal King could accomplish; they would likely have to have walked very, very far along the path of the Immortal King realm!

Immortal Kings are divided into six realms: Flawed Immortal King, Ordinary Immortal King, Supreme Immortal King, Immortal King Titan, Peerless Immortal King Titan, and Emperor Light Immortal King. This Lord of the Restricted Area was likely at least a Supreme Immortal King or even an Immortal King Titan during his lifetime!

A Flawed Immortal King is often one whose Dao Fruit is incomplete, or whose physical body or primordial spirit is not yet perfect. Although they have stepped into the realm of the Immortal King, they have not triggered the Immortal King Tribulation to make their Dao Fruit, physical body, and primordial spirit all perfect.

The second realm is the Ordinary Immortal King. While the physical body and primordial spirit of such an Immortal King are already perfect, their Dao Fruit is still shallow. Usually, an Immortal King who has just passed the Immortal King Tribulation is at this realm.

The third realm is the Supreme Immortal King. Their Dao Fruit is already perfect, making them extremely difficult to completely obliterate. Even within the Myriad Worlds, they are top-tier powerhouses. For instance, the Immortal King ancient ancestor of the Ao Clan, Ao Sheng, who is always jumping around, is at this realm.

The fourth realm is the Immortal King Titan. The strength of this realm far exceeds that of a Supreme Immortal King. Under normal circumstances, one Immortal King Titan is enough to easily defeat several Supreme Immortal Kings single-handedly. Even in the Immortal Domain where there are countless powerhouses, an Immortal King Titan is a foundational existence that guards the Immortal Domain!

As for the Peerless Immortal King Titan and the Emperor Light Immortal King further down, although the five of them knew of these two realms, they did not know the specifics.

They now suspected that the Lord of the Restricted Area was very likely a Supreme Immortal King or even an Immortal King Titan during his lifetime. Otherwise, how could he, after death, display the power of an Immortal King with just a wisp of obsession while also maintaining the Dharma Bodies of two True Immortals!

Who would have thought that in such a remote corner like the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands, such a high-level big shot would be hidden!

It is unknown how much time passed before Chu Yuan finally undid the barrier, and the figures of the two reappeared in the eyes of the seven True Immortal realm powerhouses.

"Daoist Friend, since it has been decided, make preparations early. I shall await your arrival at the ancestral land of the Chu Clan in the Immortal Domain."

"Rest assured, I will come. I will be counting on you then, Daoist Friend."

The moment the voice faded, Chu Yuan's figure turned into countless specks of light, dissipating into the void. At the same time, the Imperial Edict that had been drifting up and down also vanished into thin air.

"What an extraordinary avatar!"

The Lord of the Restricted Area sighed, then looked toward the five True Immortals of the Chu Clan.

"You may go. This place is about to be sealed."

"Understood. We shall follow your instructions, Senior."

As soon as the words were spoken, the once-surging River of Taiyin and River of the Sun dissipated completely. The pillars of light that had reached from the heavens to the earth also disappeared, leaving behind only endless Immortal mist, a testament to the extraordinary nature of this place.

"Truly an incredible existence!"

Chu Xinghan could not help but exclaim.

"Alright, let's go. Our task is finished. I intend to head straight back to the Chu Clan. What about you all?"

"I will return with you."

"Me too."

"I won't be going back yet. I need to make a trip to Xuanming Prefecture to deal with those few restless Remnant Immortals in the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands recently."

"Oh? Have they lost their minds, looking for trouble for no reason? With their meager strength, do they really think they can contend with our Chu Clan? Do you need our help?"

"No need for help. I can handle it alone. They are mere trash. If it weren't for them obscuring the heavenly secrets, I could have wiped them all out with a single slap."

"Fine then, be careful. Don't capsize in the gutter. If anything goes wrong, call for us immediately. By the way, Chu Yue, what about you? You haven't said whether you're coming with us."

Chu Yue was the only female among the five True Immortals of the Chu Clan. Hearing Chu Xiong's question, she shook her head and spoke.

"No, I won't be returning with you. My most beloved descendant is in the Eight Regions of the Lower Realm. I plan to go see how she has been doing lately and whether she has been causing any trouble."

"Hahaha, alright then, off you go. As for causing trouble, that is to be expected. Isn't the whole point of cultivation trials to cause trouble everywhere? As long as we have the ability to clean up the mess, it's fine."

After a pause, Chu Xiong reminded her.

"Although the Eight Regions is just a barren land where birds don't even lay eggs, it is a cage after all, and there are many dangers. Don't be too careless and end up trapped there."

"Rest assured, I will be careful."

After Chu Xiong and the others departed, Chu Yue slowly raised her head and cast her gaze into the distance. Two divine rays of light pierced through the void, illuminating the horizon.

The next moment, Chu Yue's figure vanished from where she stood, leaving behind only a sentence that would make anyone's skin crawl.

"Hehehe, Auntie's dearest little Xixi, I'm coming to find you!"
