After obtaining an immense opportunity, Yun Chen quietly returned to Myriad Spirits. As he approached his palace, he happened to run into Gao Cheng, who had come looking for him.
"Brother Yun Chen, what are you...?"
Gao Cheng looked at him in puzzlement. Why did it seem as though Yun Chen had just returned from outside?
"Nothing. I went to take a look at those Fuli Immortal Seeds." Yun Chen's expression did not change. "Although Fellow Daoist Mu Xian's words were outrageously treasonous, there was some truth to them. The Fuli Immortal Seeds cannot be taken lightly."
Understanding dawned on Gao Cheng, and he turned to the reason for his visit. "That is precisely why I came looking for you. Not long ago, that Golden Road Beyond the Realm grew much wider again. Those Immortal Seeds have probably brought in more reinforcements. We must be especially careful."
Yun Chen sighed at this. "What a calamity."
The two chatted for a long while before Gao Cheng took his leave. As he walked away, countless thoughts swirled through his mind:
That Sword-Seed Beast Taming fellow keeps watching me relentlessly, and the Fuli Immortal Seeds seem to be making moves as well. Could Mu Xian really be right? Is submitting to Fuli and stealing a Heavenly Seat the proper path?
No. How could we lose to a pack of tamed beasts? We of Myriad Spirits are the Heavenly Venerable's legacy. How could we bow and scrape?
His resolve gradually hardened, and he decided to take extra care against those Immortal Seeds. Yet just then, a faint feeling quietly arose in his heart.
*They are merely a pack of tamed beasts. With the Myriad Spirits Diagram here, why should I worry? As tamed beasts, could they possibly stand shoulder to shoulder with Beastmaster Lords
