Each made their own plans

Liu Ruiyuan was furious. The Supreme Yang Blazing Crystal was one of his goals in entering the Qian Yuan Realm. If he hadn't found it, it would have been one thing, but it was right in front of him, yet someone else had taken it away. The feeling was indescribable. He said coldly, "Such treasures are born of Heaven and Earth and earth, and are meant to be possessed by those with the right destiny. I, Liu, spent many years finding this treasure. Is your action intended to provoke my Sanyang Sect?"

Gu Yuanqing said indifferently, "What a joke. Things in the Qian Yuan Realm are not ownerless. You come to my Boundary Domain to search for treasures, and you come to ask me?"

Liu Ruiyuan sneered and asked, "Does everything in the Qian Yuan Realm belong to you? Such domineering behavior is something even my Sanyang Sect would be ashamed of."

Gu Yuanqing said, "I am merely telling you this, not trying to debate with you. If you find it inappropriate or unacceptable, then simply leave my Qian Yuan Realm."

"You...!" Liu Ruiyuan was furious, but finally laughed in extreme anger, "Fine, fine, I've seen it all."

Gu Yuanqing said calmly, "It's enough that you've seen it. I'll stop here for today. If you still dare to steal the heavenly materials and earthly treasures of my Qian Yuan Realm, don't blame me for confiscating your Cosmic Bag in the end."

Liu Ruiyuan snorted coldly, recalled the Pill Furnace, and turned to leave. He couldn't find Gu Yuanqing's whereabouts, so even if he wanted to fight, he had no way to start. Moreover, he was in someone else's Boundary Domain, and he didn't have the advantage of timing, location, or people. Even though he was confident in his cultivation and wasn't afraid, he was unwilling to fight Gu Yuanqing under these circumstances.

Moreover, Cen Pingshan, the Sanyang Sect Sword Son, was still in the process of enlightenment. He did not want to cause any trouble at this time, so he could only suppress his anger, endure his grievances, and remember this debt to settle later.

Inside the North Spring Grotto-Heaven, Gu Yuanqing smiled calmly. The Sanyang Sect acted domineeringly, and he was merely retaliating in kind.

"This treasure must be quite important to the Sanyang Sect; they might not let this go so easily."

In fact, he did not deliberately hide his identity. The Sanyang Sect would eventually find out that he was the same person who was the Divine Fishing Guest Elder of the Illusionary Spirit Sect. He only hoped that the Sanyang Sect would still have the courage to fight him when that time came.

As for today, the other party also paid a price to enter the Qian Yuan Realm. Since Liu Ruiyuan neither took action nor chose to swallow his anger, he had no reason to do so.

After all, they settled their score with ten Heaven-Tier Divine Soul Great Medicine back then; they can't go back on their word, can they?

Liu Ruiyuan returned to the treasure pearl.

Seeing that his expression was off, Cen Pingshan asked, "Martial Aunt Liu, has something happened?"

Liu Ruiyuan said, "It's nothing, just focus on your cultivation."

Cen Pingshan nodded slightly and did not ask any further questions.

Liu Ruiyuan separated a Divine Soul and sent it into the Ancient Realm.

Gu Yuanqing could sense that Liu Ruiyuan's aura had weakened slightly, and he understood what had happened. He then focused his mind back on cultivation. As long as he was strong enough, no matter how the Sanyang Sect plotted, it would be in vain.

The Qian Yuan Realm remained peaceful as usual, but the Sanyang Sect was thrown into turmoil.

Within the Ancient Realm, at the Residence the Sanyang Sect, in the Pure Yang Hall.

Liu Ruiyuan recounted what had just happened.

Baili Jinghong was furious, and the Elder in the hall also showed their anger.

"Outrageous! A mere Celestial Person from the Qian Yuan Realm is utterly audacious! Exchanging Divine Soul Great Medicine for entry into the realm is one thing, but daring to steal my Supreme Yang Blazing Crystal? Does he really think my Sanyang Sect is easy to bully?"

"This is outrageous! They clearly don't take us seriously."

"If we don't teach this ignorant brat a lesson, word will get out and I'm afraid no one will dare to piss and shit on our heads in the future."

"Indeed, such reckless behavior must be taught that the consequences of provoking my Sanyang Sect are something they cannot afford!"

The people of the Sanyang Sect cultivate the most Yang Cultivation Method and are known for their fiery tempers. They are Sanyang Sect ones who always steal others' treasures, but today, the treasure they sought was snatched away right before their eyes. How could these powerful Great Cultivator of the Sanyang Sect Heavenly Human possibly tolerate this?

Moreover, this is Supreme Yang Blazing Crystal!

What might be a treasure for other Sect to comprehend Yin-Yang is, for the Sanyang Sect, a treasure that is the Opportunity to stepping into the Yin-Yang Realm.

Back then, Pei Yutang was willing to enter the realm with all his Divine Soul in order to find Opportunity to break through to the Yin-Yang Realm, intending to fight Gu Yuanqing to the Life and Death. Even Baili Jinghong was moved at this moment. Looking at the group of Elder filled with righteous indignation, a sharp light flashed in his eyes.

As one of the top three Sect in the within the Exquisite World, the Sanyang Sect possesses an entire realm and controls the Misty Forest. With the Divine Soul Great Medicine, it has no shortage of Spirit Stone stones, spiritual Spiritual Qi, or Cultivation Method. Almost every lineage has Great Cultivator have reached the Three Tribulations of Heavenly Change, and there are even several who have entered the Peak of Three Tribulations of Heavenly Change.

What's lacking is a supreme treasure Supreme Yang Blazing Crystal, which arises from the expansion of Heaven and Earth and the changes of the Great Dao. If such a treasure were available, even some Peak Master who had no hope of breaking through to the Yin-Yang realm would dare to attempt a breakthrough.

"Sect Master, with just one order from you, our Sanyang Sect will crush his Qian Yuan Realm. So what if he possesses the Realm Token? He only faces the Third Tribulation of the Sanyang Sect Three Tribulations of Heavenly Change. With so many experts and Ancient Artifact artifacts and magical Law Treasure, how could we possibly fear him?"

"Indeed, since we've found one piece of the Supreme Yang Blazing Crystal, there might be more on the Boundary Domain Edge. If we can find a few more, perhaps our Sanyang Sect will produce several Yin-Yang Great Cultivator in this generation!"

Upon hearing this, several people's eyes gleamed.

Liu Ruiyuan entered the realm merely as a casual exploration, since treasures like the Supreme Yang Blazing Crystal cannot be created without the right timing and location. Now that it has been confirmed that the Qian Yuan Realm possesses such a treasure, the significance of the Qian Yuan Realm has become entirely different.

"Sect Master, make a decision! This is an opportunity that cannot be missed! We can't wait any longer. Such a divine object Supreme Yang Blazing Crystal, if it turns to Yin when Yang reaches its extreme, will become just an ordinary treasure. If we miss this chance, we will regret it immensely!"

Baili Jinghong remained silent for a moment before slowly asking, "Fighting Boundary Domain is no small matter. Junior Brother Liu, you've also had contact with Gu Yuanqing. What do you think of his strength?"

Liu Ruiyuan frowned and said in a deep voice, "I can't be sure, but his Dao Arts are extremely strange. I've encountered him twice, yet I still can't pinpoint his exact location."

"The Path of Incense and Fire is High Antiquity Divine Path. Although there are related scriptures within the Sect, they are at most at the level of rural monsters, equivalent to the Divine Platform Realm. This person was able to achieve the status of Celestial Person through this, so his lineage must be quite strong," Baili Jinghong said.

"It's truly bizarre. Bai Hong of the Crimson Cloud Bai Family was killed by this Gu's 'Interdimensional' technique. Even Yin-Yang Mighty Figure would find it difficult to accomplish such a feat."

"It might not be as powerful as we suspect. If we use Ancient Artifact to worship the Nether God, it wouldn't be difficult to achieve something like this," an Elder said.

Baili Jinghong stood up. "Regardless, knowing yourself and your enemy is the key to victory. Although Yan Jin and Zhao Qianye of the Shadow Cult are somewhat weak, they are still at the Three Tribulations of Heavenly Change. If they truly die silently in the Qian Yuan Realm, then Gu Yuanqing's strength should not be underestimated. I will consider this matter further before making a decision. Junior Brother Liu, your Divine Soul will remain in the Ancient Realm for now. Once things are settled, you can return to your body."

"Yes!"

Baili Jinghong withdrew from the Ancient Realm and then arrived at Return-to-Truth Mountain.

This is the place where Zhuang Hanhai Supreme Elder the Sanyang Sect, cultivated.

Baili Jinghong lingered there for half a day before finally leaving.

Three days later.

The Sanyang Sect sent Jade Slip through the Heavenly Treasure Merchant Guild, intending to purchase the Supreme Yang Blazing Crystal. Li Guanrong had no idea what kind of treasure this was, so he quickly reported it to Gu Yuanqing of North Spring Grotto-Heaven.

Gu Yuanqing read the Jade Slip and smiled calmly, "Then I'll exchange it for ten Heaven-Tier Divine Soul Great Medicine."

When Liao Xu of the Heavenly Treasure Merchant Guild heard about this from Li Guanrong, he almost thought he had misheard and confirmed it several times.

Heaven-Tier Divine Soul Great Medicine is on a completely different level from Earth Tier; a single one is priceless, let alone ten.

Upon receiving the reply, Baili Jinghong's face darkened. Gu Yuanqing was truly audacious in his demands. Even with the immense power and influence of the Sanyang Sect, they dared not agree to this deal.

Supreme Yang Blazing Crystal is precious, it's not worth this price. After all, within the within the Exquisite World, the Supreme Yin-Yang Blazing Crystal isn't the only one containing the Dao Resonance Yin Supreme Yang Blazing Crystal. Others, such as the Taiji Spiritual Marrow Jade, the Cosmic Origin-Returning Fruit, and the Two Forms Spirit Infusion Pearl, are of comparable value. It just so happens that this item is the most suitable for the Sanyang Sect.

Gu Yuanqing is clearly taking advantage of this situation to raise the price. Does he think my Sanyang Sect is a sucker?

Moreover, ten Heaven-Tier Divine Soul Great Medicine —why does that condition sound so familiar?

Gu Yuanqing naturally knew that the Sanyang Sect would not accept these conditions. However, business is business, and it's all about negotiation. You can't ask for an exorbitant price; you have to give the other party room to bargain, right?

Two days later, Heavenly Treasure Merchant Guild sent word that the Sanyang Sect planned to invite Gu Yuanqing to the Purple Nether Realm in three days to discuss a transaction. If Gu Yuanqing came, the transaction would be completed in person if an agreement was reached. They wondered if Gu Yuanqing would dare to come.

Gu Yuanqing smiled, "A face-to-face transaction in three days? That's interesting. It's acceptable. Speaking of which, I haven't yet visited the other Exquisite World."

Li Guanrong said worriedly, "Grandfather, the Sanyang Sect probably has ill intentions. If they want to negotiate, they can do so in the Ancient Realm, or even in my Qian Yuan Realm. The Sanyang Sect also has Celestial Person in this realm, so why do they need to negotiate Outer Realm?"

Gu Yuanqing smiled and said, "It's alright."

Li Guanrong remained worried. "Grandfather, please think it over carefully. I have a feeling there's something fishy about this trip. Even if Split Soul, there's still a risk. Why don't you let me go in your place?"

Gu Yuanqing waved his hand and said, "Your father is not here, and you are the Crown Prince. How can you easily abandon your post? Besides, the Sanyang Sect is a major sect in the Exquisite World. Most of the people who come to discuss this are also Celestial Person. With your strength, you are still somewhat lacking."

Before Li Guanrong could speak further, Gu Yuanqing said, "Don't worry, since I plan to go, I'm confident in my abilities. You don't need to worry."

"Alright, then Grandfather, please be careful." Li Guanrong said helplessly.

Three days later, at dawn.

Gu Yuanqing flicked his finger, and a drop of Essence Blood flew out, merging with his Split Soul to instantly transform into Avatar.

With one step, one is already in front of the Teleportation Array.

Li Guanrong, Gu Siyuan, Ji Dai, Qin Wuya, Xu Wuxing from the Heavenly Policy Mansion, several Cultivator at the Divine Platform Ninth Layer Void Form, and Liao Xu and others from the Heavenly Treasure Merchant Guild were already waiting at the front of the formation.

"Greetings, Grandfather!"

"Greetings, Young Master Gu!"

"Greetings Immortal Gu! Senior Gu!"

Everyone present bowed in respect.

Gu Yuanqing nodded slightly and chuckled, "Let's go."

As he spoke, he strode toward the Teleportation Array.

Gu Siyuan, Qin Wuya, Void Form, and three other Cultivator at the Divine Platform Ninth Layer followed behind, with Liao Xu of the Heavenly Treasure Merchant Guild close behind.

Li Guanrong said in a deep voice, "Grandfather, be careful."

Gu Yuanqing didn't turn around, but waved his hand.

Li Guanrong called out loudly again, "Second brother, you must take good care of Grandfather."

Gu Siyuan turned around and nodded emphatically.

Gu Yuanqing smiled and walked away with his hands behind his back. Although he didn't need anyone to take care of him, it didn't stop him from feeling happy because of his grandson's concern for him.

Liao Xu secretly observed Gu Yuanqing. He was very curious about this celestial Celestial Person from the Qian Yuan Realm. Although he had seen Gu Yuanqing's portrait before, this was the first time he had seen him in True Person.

He was excessively young, and his aura was not particularly imposing. He showed no signs of being Great Cultivator at the Three Tribulations of Heavenly Change Realm. His presence was elusive and difficult to discern.

As everyone stepped into the Formation, Gu Yuanqing activated the Realm Token, connecting with the Earth Vein. The Formation was activated, and a flash of light appeared, and they had already arrived in an unfamiliar Boundary Domain.

"Is this the Purple Nether Realm?" Gu Yuanqing looked around with his hands behind his back. He could vaguely feel the world's intent to imprison him. It was a kind of malice, as if the World Force would arrive instantly and press down on him as soon as his true cultivation was exposed.

"Do ordinary Cultivator experience the same thing when they enter my North Spring Grotto-Heaven?"

This was the first time Gu Yuanqing had felt the power of the will of Heaven and Earth so clearly.

"No wonder high-level Cultivator are unwilling to enter low-level within the Exquisite World; it certainly doesn't feel good!"

Gu Yuanqing extended his Divine Sense and discovered that this place was on the top of a high mountain.

He stepped forward, and the others followed.

"Haha, Senior Gu's arrival in my Purple Nether Realm Purple Nether Realm is truly an honor!" With a loud laugh, Feng Yunting, the Purple Extreme Pavilion Master, who had been waiting in front of the Teleportation Array, greeted him with clasped hands.

In the distance, welcoming music could be heard.

"Senior Gu, this is Feng Yunting, the Purple Extreme Pavilion Master!" Liao Xu stepped forward and introduced.

Gu Yuanqing cupped his hands and said, "Sect Leader Feng, you're too kind. It's a pleasure to meet you. I'm sorry to have troubled you this time."

"Not at all. The fact that the Qian Yuan Realm and the Sanyang Sect are willing to discuss and trade with my Purple Nether Realm Purple Nether Realm is a testament to their trust in me. I am deeply honored," Feng Yunting said with a smile.

After exchanging pleasantries, Gu Yuanqing asked, "Where are the people from the Sanyang Sect?"

"It's in Skycloud Mountain not far away. I, Feng, will lead the way for you, senior," Feng Yunting, raising his hand.

"Thank you for your trouble!" Gu Yuanqing said.

Five hundred miles away, Three Heavenly Humans from the Sanyang Sect stood atop a mountain peak.

The leader was none other than Zhu Qingyu, the peak master of Chaoyang Peak of the Sanyang Sect.

He also exuded an aura of Void Heaven Peak, and his eyes gleamed with a faint light.

"He actually dared to come here?" Zhu Qingyu stood with his hands behind his back, a slight surprise on his face.

"I wonder if it's the real person, or just a Puppet of a Split Soul?" asked Duan Qifeng, another Elder had reached the Two Tribulations of Heavenly Change Duan Qifeng.

"The Path of Incense and Fire is particularly adept at Split Soul. We'll find out soon enough by testing it. However, it's most likely Puppet Split Soul. He's the only Celestial Person in the Qian Yuan Realm. If he leaves, there will be no one to guard it. How could he dare to take such a great risk?" Zhu Qingyu said.

"What the Peak Master says is true. Once he arrived in the Purple Nether Realm, he lost his geographical advantage. Without the Realm Token Empowerment, he is the only one above the Void Heaven Peak in the Qian Yuan Realm. How could he dare to come with me!"

Zhu Qingyu smiled calmly, "If you really dare to come here in person, that would be great. Perhaps the Boundary Domain controlled by my Sanyang Sect will have one more."

Inside the North Spring Grotto-Heaven, Gu Yuanqing looked in the direction of the Teleportation Array and muttered to himself, "Will the Sanyang Sect take this opportunity to do something? If they do, that would be good; otherwise, I really can't make a move. After all, the grudges are settled. Cheng Yi, Guanrong, Siyuan... and a whole bunch of little brats—this amount of Divine Soul Great Medicine is far from enough!"

Moreover, in Gu Yuanqing's view, it would be best to obtain the Divine Soul Great Medicine from the within the Exquisite World, rather than the great medicine from the Ancient Realm.

Although the two kinds of Divine Soul Great Medicine have similar effects, the Ancient Realm medicines can only be consumed within the Ancient Realm, and it is difficult for those who are not at least at the Middle Stage the Void Heaven realm to enter the realm.

However, the great medicines from the Exquisite World can be brought back to the North Spring Grotto-Heaven. By using the Object Control Power and combining them with some Spirit Materials to make pills, the effect is even better than using them alone. This can also quickly enhance the strength of the Qian Yuan Realm.

The Qian Yuan Realm is currently far too weak. If it continues at its current pace, it's uncertain when it will truly grow stronger!
