"There is no Great Sage with such a title?" Chen Lingxi raised an eyebrow.

The Credit Peddler said, "This Great Sage, born from the Qi-Less Grotto-Heaven, is named Great Sage Luo Yuan... I can say no more than that."

Please remember this deal, fellow Daoist. If you are able to leave this Qi-Less Grotto-Heaven and avoid entering the World-Refining Furnace, please do not forget the deal between us.

"Once you obtain that treasure, I will naturally come to find you."

Chen Lingxi slowly, already knowing that the Credit Peddler wouldn't say much more.

But his mind was still preoccupied with the Great Sage Luo Yuan...

"This grotto -Cave Heaven is indeed extraordinary. Although the Spiritual Qi is extremely thin, it has not only given birth to many treasures and attracted numerous fortuitous opportunity, but has even given birth to a Great Sage."

Chen Lingxi had no idea what the words "Great Sage" represented, nor did he know what the Immortal Capital War" that the Credit Peddler was talking about was.

But he understood that... anyone capable of changing the mind of a True Lord must be extremely powerful.

"Then where is this incarnation of the Great Sage?"

Chen Lingxi activated the Cloud-Riding Method, creating clouds and mist, and soared into the Void like a bolt of lightning, breaking through the thick fog.

As the sunset faded, the dark golden light of the distant sunset fell upon him, leaving a long trail in its glow as he headed south.

As he soared through the clouds, his mind continued to wander.

A dozen or so breaths passed, and suddenly a glint flashed in Chen Lingxi's eyes.

"Could the Great Sage Luo Yuan be related to that mysterious Long River within the Ancestral Mountain?"

The more Chen Lingxi thought about it, the more likely it seemed.

The mysterious Long River within the Ancestral Mountain is not a physical entity, but rather seems to be an illusion.

Chen Lingxi was summoned by this mysterious Long River and had personally witnessed its Long River and profound principles.

"My cultivation is no longer weak, and I have seen the strongest being in this world, namely the Emperor Daye."

I have also witnessed many extraordinary fortuitous opportunity within this Cave Heaven.

For example, Cauldron Vessel or Immortal Husk.

Upon careful consideration, whether it's Cauldron Vessel or Immortal Husk, although they contain profound Daoist mysteries, they ultimately cannot be called "Great Sage Sages," except for that Long River.

Chen Lingxi's eyes were burning, as if she had caught some clues.

He pondered in his heart, "What if that Long River truly originated from the Great Sage was born in this Cave Heaven!"

He once called out to me, allowing me to see two Liu Changle in the swirling currents of that Long River.

Little did they know what secrets these two Liu Changle held.

What is their connection to this Long River?

As Chen Lingxi pondered, she looked up at the sky again.

In the Void, two brilliant mirrors hung high in the sky, their brilliance undiminished by the thick Twin Luminous Mirrors.

Intense and serene... two completely different kinds of light fell upon the earth, illuminating the entire world in a brilliant white.

But only Chen Lingxi could see this brilliant white.

Chen Lingxi had already made up his mind that after this Total Perception, he would personally go to see Liu Changle in the Mystic Wonder Abbey and ask him about the mysterious dream, to see if he could get any information out of him.

"But before that, I need to go to the Heaven Gate Sea."

Currently, the Divine Chamber Total Perception Divine Chamber, and it will still take eight or nine days before it is destroyed.

Chen Lingxi naturally wouldn't waste the Perfect Thorough Awakening Divine Ability that he had finally perfected.

"I already know that beneath Jade Pivot Island Heaven Gate Sea, there are not only a Dao Platform sealing platforms, each containing a Dao Foundation Grand Divine Ability, but even the complete Cauldron Vessel is located in the Heaven Gate Sea."

"And now... the spiritual energy and profound power that came from that mysterious middle-aged man has mostly disappeared from my body."

Yet it can still increase my strength several times over!

Before this immense power completely dissipates, I can go to the Heaven Gate Sea Heaven Gate Sea see if there is a complete Cauldron Vessel or the Dao Platform Restriction within it."

Chen Lingxi harbored great ambitions, and a fierce glint flashed in his eyes.

"Within the Realm of Total Perception, I have no fear of life or death. Now that I possess the Enemy-Slaying Spirit Jade, if I can seize the Dao Platform Restriction, or even the complete Cauldron Vessel, I can use the profound mysteries of Total Perception to bring one of the Dao Platform Restriction or the complete Cauldron Vessel back to the mortal world!"

Chen Lingxi thought about this, a slight smile appeared on his lips. However, upon further reflection, he became somewhat puzzled.

"On many of these Cauldron Vessel, there are profound mysteries and immense power. They can understand yin and yang, comprehend creation, and even transform reality into illusion. Their mysteries are beyond the comprehension of cultivators."

The complete Cauldron Vessel seems to be unique... But what if I used my Thorough Awakening Divine Ability to bring out a Cauldron Vessel from the Divine Chamber?

Chen Lingxi was quite curious.

He continued his journey in this way, heading straight for the southern sea.

The further south you go, the more dilapidated the city becomes, and many more refugees are fleeing along the way.

Emperor Daye Emperor Daye's tyrannical rule and extortionate taxes provoked numerous rebellious kings to rise up and overthrow him.

Among them were many local militia members and many displaced people who became outlaws.

How many of those who rebelled against the king truly wanted to find a way out for the people?

When rebels rise up against the king, the expenses of the large army ultimately fall on the shoulders of ordinary people.

As a result, the Great Li was embroiled in internal strife for several years, and the lives of the people deteriorated day by day.

Chen Lingxi wiped out several bandit strongholds along the way and swept away several bandit armies, crossing more than a dozen prefectures and cities until he reached South Sea Province.

Although it was in the Total Perception Divine Chamber, everything Chen Lingxi did would eventually crumble and could not have any impact on this world.

However, in his spiritual practice, he emphasized maintaining his original mind. When he encountered bandits or chaotic troops, he would simply wipe them away, which could be considered as clearing his mind.

And he would never waste too much time on such mundane matters.

"The entire Cave Heaven will be refined by the furnace. At that time, all 100 million beings in this Cave Heaven will become nourishment for Xi Hengsu, the genius of the Quexing Xi Family, to cultivate the Great Profound Golden Palace within the World-Refining Furnace."

As Chen Lingxi pondered the situation, he flew rapidly toward the Southern Sea.

Flying over a thousand miles from the Southern Sea and crossing several vast islands, you will arrive at the Heaven Gate Sea.

This place is called Heaven Gate Sea because it is dotted with islands. When viewed from Void, these numerous scattered islands resemble the pillars, gate, and entrance of a heavenly gate, hence the name Heaven Gate Sea.

Chen Lingxi found another cargo ship, disregarding the scandalous nature of the event, and descended from the clouds, instructing them to point out the location of Jade Pivot Island.

Knowing the location of Jade Pivot Island, he didn't delay. His physical body sank into the sea, and a vortex of spiritual energy erupted. He swam towards the depths of the sea like a sea fish.

As early as the Qi Circulation Sixth Floor, Qi Circulation Realm cultivators could close their pores and remain untainted by dust, making it naturally easy for them to swim in the sea.

Although the seawater was heavy, it posed no threat to Chen Lingxi's physique and cultivation level.

Thus, Chen Lingxi continued to sink to a depth of three thousand feet, heading straight for Jade Pivot Island.

The underwater scenery was magnificent, but Chen Lingxi didn't have time to admire it much. When they reached a point twenty miles from Jade Pivot Island, Chen Lingxi activated the Qi Observation Technique and looked straight into the distance.

But all I saw was...

Above Jade Pivot Island, surging Qi and Blood flowed continuously, like waves swirling on the sea surface.

Two more terrifying auras parted the seawater, gleaming brightly.

At the same time, a very heavy spiritual energy fluctuation could be vaguely seen being confined within a radius of a hundred feet. If Chen Lingxi did not cultivate the Qi Observation Method, he would not be able to detect this terrifying spiritual energy fluctuation at all!

"It went smoothly."

A slight smile appeared on Chen Lingxi's lips.

But then he thought again that within this Cave Heaven, the Great Li Court was undoubtedly the most powerful force.

Even those who Truth-Seeking Realm of the Rebirth Realm were captured by Emperor Daye and brought back to the palace, disemboweled, and had their memories stolen.

The imperial palace is home to many powerful individuals.

The Purple-Robed Marquis and Yuan Yuan alone are enough to surpass all those who Truth-Seeking Realm Rebirth Realm.

Moreover, Emperor Daye has already reached the Dao Foundation Realm in this Qi-Less Grotto-Heaven, which is beyond comprehension.

"Upon careful consideration, the Great Li Court doesn't need to be on guard at all... Perhaps only those powerful figures from the Dao-Below Academy, who arrive via the Myriad Realms Projection, can threaten Emperor Daye."

"However... there is still one me now."

Chen Lingxi's gaze was intense as it fell upon the two surging Qi and Blood and terrifying aura!

Chen Lingxi had already met one of them during his Sight-Roaming.

It was none other than the Marquis Fengshan who had once come to the palace to meet Emperor Daye and report on the Dao Foundation Divine Ability Inscription!

Separated by a great distance and the deep seabed, Chen Lingxi naturally could not see the face of the Marquis Fengshan.

However, Chen Lingxi still vividly remembered the aura emanating from him and the terrifying fluctuations of his Qi and Blood.

Chen Lingxi's consciousness fell on another aura, and after careful observation, a look of surprise appeared on her face.

"This is General Qi Lian..."

This Dao Foundation Divine Ability Inscription, is guarded by General Qi Lian and Marquis Fengshan.

Marquis Fengshan cultivated his Qi and Blood, but his spiritual qi was not manifest.

However, this General Qi Lian possessed extremely thick spiritual energy that surged and moved.

The spiritual energy even contained various Mystery Mechanism, making it difficult to describe its profoundness.

Chen Lingxi was greatly surprised.

"General Qi Lian is indeed a cultivator, and his cultivation level... apart from Emperor Daye, is probably even stronger than any other cultivator I have ever seen."

Back when Sight-Roaming before, Marquis Fengshan mentioned that General Qi Lian had infused his Divine Sense into the Dao Foundation Divine Ability Inscription. At that time Chen Lingxi knew that General Qi Lian must be Qi Circulation Realm Practitioner.

But he never expected that this person's cultivation level would be so formidable.

" By Qi Circulation, Eleventh Floor, the Three Flowers of essence, energy, and spirit are condensed, making the physical body, Consciousness Sea, and Qi Sea unprecedentedly powerful."

Furthermore, there are Three-Flower Mysteries, how powerful they are!

General Qi Lian's combat prowess surpasses that of Yuan Yuan.

"And that Marquis Fengshan..."

Chen Lingxi looked at that terrifying Qi and Blood.

Amidst the pervasive flow of Qi and Blood, a surging energy flows, Qi and Blood like pillars supporting the heavens and the earth, profoundly mysterious.

In particular, this person's physical body, under Chen Lingxi's Qi Observation Method, was like a blazing sun, and even through the surging sea, Chen Lingxi could feel its intense heat.

"These must be the Twelve Profound Realm Warriors."

Chen Ling couldn't help but marvel at the overwhelming power of the imperial court.

He originally thought that figures like the Purple-Robed Marquis and Yuan Yuan were among the most powerful people in the court.

Unexpectedly, Marquis Fengshan and General Qi Lian were far stronger than the other two.

"But it is unknown who is stronger among Marquis Fengshan, Qi Lian, and Xiao Changlü."

Chen Lingxi felt a surge of emotion, but showed no fear whatsoever.

He then activated the Six-Qi True Method, and Spiritual Qi quietly circulated within his Qi Sea.

Within his Qi Sea, the spiritual light bestowed upon him by the mysterious middle-aged man was now faintly visible, much weaker than Battle of Seizing the Cauldron.

"My strength has diminished considerably. If I were to face the Purple-Robed Marquis or Yuan Yuan now, I would have no chance of defeating them."

Not to mention fighting two against one.

"Only..."

Chen Lingxi's eyes were clear and bright. "These two are guarding the Dao Foundation Divine Ability Inscription. I only need to absorb a wisp of their aura to defeat them!"
