Yan Yuxing glanced at the man and said softly, "Didn't you go to Nine Tribulations Valley to search for treasure? Why are you back so soon?"
This burly man was named Zhao Dameng, and like him, he was a vanguard general of the Heavenly Derivation Sect.
Furthermore, this person had already stepped into the Half-Step Human Immortal before him.
The two had a good relationship and usually did missions together.
"Hey! That treasure has already been snatched up by someone else!" Zhao Dameng his hands, somewhat angrily saying, "I don't know which damned person deliberately leaked the news, but who knew that we who went in were the ones who became someone else's prey."
At this point, Zhao Dameng's face showed a hint of relief. "Luckily, I had a Space-Breaking Talisman on me, which allowed me to escape in time, otherwise I might have lost my life inside!"
Hearing this, Yan Yuxing somewhat surprised.
The Nine Tribulations Valley is said to be the former cave dwelling of the Nine Tribulations Immortal, who was a powerful Earth Immortal.
Later, for reasons unknown, the Nine Tribulations Immortal was severely injured outside and returned to Nine Tribulations Valley, where he perished.
The Nine Tribulations Cave Abode also disappeared, only reappearing in the last ten years or so.
The cave dwelling of a powerful Earth Immortal is still very attractive to people like them who are only Half-Step Human Immortal.
Even if it doesn't allow me to break through to the Earth Immortal in the future, just shortening the time it takes to reach the Human Immortal realm would be a huge gain.
Did I not expect this to be a trap?
Yan Yuxing comforted her, "It's good that you're alright! It seems we need to be more careful with these kinds of messages in the future!"
These two people seem to have completely different personalities and styles, but they happen to get along very well.
"Pah! I'm not saying anything more! What bad luck!"
Zhao Dameng shouted angrily, then looked at Yan Yuxing and asked, "By the way, judging from your appearance, did something happen? Or were you bullied by those guys from Five Dragons Mountain?"
With that, Zhao Dameng stepped forward and patted Yan Yuxing on the shoulder. "You're such a good talker, brother. I'll take you to get revenge. Perfect timing, I'm burning with anger right now!"
"No, that's not it!" Yan Yuxing shook his head. "I just ran into Yuan Feng, the deputy commander of the Myriad Mirrors Mining Army. Ninth Heaven True Immortal is no match for me!"
But he's dead now!
Yan Yuxing shrugged.
"You killed him?" Zhao Dameng was stunned upon hearing this.
While their Heavenly Derivation Sect was indeed at odds with the people of Five Dragons Mountain, not many of them actually engaged in life-or-death battles.
Those Loose Immortal are one thing, their lives are worthless, but true Immortal Realm experts like them are at least considered strong within the two major sects.
You may have the upper hand today, but he may have the upper hand tomorrow.
It's actually quite rare for a commander or former general to actually die.
Moreover, the main reason for the conflict between their Heavenly Derivation Sect and Five Dragons Mountain is the ascension of those who have ascended from the lower realm.
Ultimately, those people from Five Dragons Mountain wouldn't fight to the death with a few ascended beings, let alone lose their lives.
"No!" Yan Yuxing shook his head. "That's the strangest thing about today!"
Hearing this, Zhao Dameng became curious and immediately asked, "Could there be other people? Besides our Heavenly Derivation Sect, there wouldn't be anyone from other sects around here, would there?"
"Yes! Two unfamiliar faces!" Yan Yuxing truthfully.
There was no need for Zhao Dameng to hide anything from him, and there was no need to hide this matter either.
Even if we don't tell Zhao Dameng now, he'll still have to report it later.
After all, those were two experts suspected to be at the Peak Human Immortal, who would be considered masters even in their Heavenly Derivation Sect.
The Human Immortal has already reached the standard of a sage master's advisor!
Yan Yuxing briefly recounted to Zhao Dameng what had happened at the Jieyin Hall.
As expected, Zhao Dameng was so shocked upon hearing this that his mouth dropped open. "What? Two Peak Human Immortal?"
"Yes!"
Based on Yan Yuxing's own judgment, at least all those at the Source of All Spirits are High-Level Human Immortal.
The cultivation level of High-Level Human Immortal is Seventh Heaven Human Immortal.
Besides, since the Source of All Spirits reveres another young man in blue robes, that young man's cultivation level should be above that of the Source of All Spirits.
The Peak Human Immortal was his lowest assessment of that person; even a powerful Earth Immortal, above the Human Immortal, was not out of the question.
As for Earth Immortal, who are the Holy Masters of their sect, there are only thirteen of them in the Heavenly Derivation Sect.
Zhao Dameng guessed Yan Yuxing's plan and asked, "Are you planning to report to the Holy Master? To see if you can recruit those two?"
"Yes!" Yan Yuxing nodded. "Whether or not to recruit them is not up to me, but at least this matter must be reported. Forget about the Holy Master, that would be going over his head. I wonder if Advisor Bai Zhu is in the sect? I'll go find him!"
Zhao Dameng looked embarrassed, glancing around to see if anyone else had heard. "Yeah, I was in a hurry and said the wrong thing!"
Within the Heavenly Derivation Sect, Human Immortal serve as the standard for advisors to the Sage Masters, while Earth Immortal are the true Sage Masters.
When Yan Yuxing said that those two might be at the Peak Human Immortal, they were only one step away from becoming Earth Immortal.
Therefore, he instinctively elevated those two to the Saint Master level.
For these two former generals, there was still the position of Holy Master Advisor above them.
Zhao Dameng glanced at the five old Daoist priests and said, "Alright! Go find them then. Advisor Bai Zhu should be at his residence! I'll just take them back to register them!"
While the two were talking, the five old Daoist priests naturally dared not interrupt.
"Thank you for your help!"
Hey! We're like brothers, why are you talking about trouble!
Yan Yuxing looked at the five old Daoist priests and instructed them, "This man is also a former general of our Heavenly Derivation Sect. You five should follow him inside; he will arrange accommodations for you!"
After saying that, Yan Yuxing's figure flashed and he left towards the mountain gate.
Come with me!
After Yan Yuxing left, Zhao Dameng's expression turned colder. After speaking to the five old Daoist priests, he also turned and left.
Yan Yuxing and he had been partners for a long time, but these other people were just passersby to him, at least for now.
He will probably leave Heavenly Derivation Sect soon.
He didn't need to deliberately make things difficult for them, nor did he need to give them special treatment.
"Yes, sir!"
North of Five Dragons Mountain lies the Ten Thousand Mirrors Ore Vein.
A mineral vein stretching for hundreds of thousands of miles winds across the flat land like the spine of a dragon lying on the ground.
Camp tents were set up around the mine.
The tent was brightly lit, and the faint sounds of women singing could be heard from inside.
Meanwhile, thousands of meters above the tents, the continuous clanging of chisels echoed through the mine.
These people wore different clothes, but they were all doing the same job.
Holding specialized mining tools, they chisel away at the ore veins, seemingly spending all their time mining except for short breaks during mealtimes.
They were not bound by chains, but small squads of the Myriad Mirrors Mining Army patrolled around them from time to time.
If anyone is found to have fled without authorization.
He may escape the death penalty, but he cannot escape punishment!
