Chapter 886 Unusual Movements in the Kunlun Immortal Realm
“You know them better than me. If they had any weakness, I bet you would know it.”
“Are you asking me to help you? You wish. Although I know their weaknesses, why would I tell you?”
“What if I enhance your Spirit Battle Methods to increase the power by 30 percent?”
“Deal.”
Si Nan nodded immediately.
Then, he couldn’t wait but to urge, “Let me have a look first. If there are no real benefits, I will definitely not provide you any help.”
“What the heck?
“He agreed just like that?”
Zhang Han was stunned by how fast the deal was made.
It took Zhang by surprise that this Si Nan didn’t hesitate to turn against his teammates. All he cared about was to score benefits for himself. To him, nothing else mattered.
It was not until recently that he came to understand how much the Spirit Battle Methods could improve his combat skills. Now that he had learned a little about such methods, he naturally wanted to know more. So, when he found out that Zhang Han visited the city again, Si Nan wondered if he could gain some more benefits this time. Unfortunately, his Dragon Scale City had gone bankrupt, and there was nothing he could afford. But if Zhang Han’s targets were other cities, wouldn’t it be just convenient?
Seeing that Zhang Han was a little stunned, Si Nan thought that Zhang Han still had some doubts.
Therefore, he remarked, “When I was in the King’s Domain, I was a subordinate of Lord Liu. Lord Liu is in the upper echelon even among the Real Kings, which of course means that he is in the Elixir Realm. There are several great forces in the King’s Domain, but magnates are very few. The eldest brother of Lord Liu is one of the 13 magnates. The only patron the City Lord of Lingxi City has is Lord Yan. The one backing up the City Lord of White Lotus City is Lord Lu. Lord Yan and Lord Lu are no match for Lord Liu. Even if I openly robbed them of their city, Lord Liu would still be able to sort it out. So, I certainly can help you rob the two cities, provided that what you offer me is good enough to tempt me.”
Zhang Han didn’t argue with him. With a wave of his right hand, small patterns appeared on the wall one by one, covering the original patterns and making them look more complicated.
However, only half of the old patterns were covered by the new ones.
They both knew the drill. After the deal was fulfilled, Zhang Han would give Si Nan the complete set of battle methods.
Si Nan didn’t say anything. He just focused on examining the patterns. After a few minutes, he closed his eyes and meditated for a while. Then, he started to examine again. Two hours passed quickly while he did that repeatedly.
“It’s enigmatic but brilliant.”
With a baffled look in his eyes, Si Nan inquired, “How did you get to know such a wonderful combat method?”
At this, Zhang Han smiled but said nothing.
This also made Si Nan more convinced that the other party was unfathomable.
“I’ll do some initial arrangements first. To seize Lingxi’s Inner Elixir and the Dark Night White Lotus, the only way is to make them return to the King’s Domain. Although Lingxi’s strength is quite formidable, he is the easiest one to deal with. As for the Dark Night White Lotus, it’s a little tricky since it also involves the Top-grade Crystal Palace. Even if your strength doubled, you wouldn’t have a chance,” Si Nan said in a tone of thinly veiled contempt.
His view was explicit. Zhang Han couldn’t do it himself, and only by resorting to his help could the mission be fulfilled.
“Where is this King’s Domain?” Zhang Han asked.
“On a land surrounded by the Northernmost Sea.”
Si Nan knew that Zhang Han wanted to know more about the Ancient Mine, so he answered, “There are two continents discovered in this world. One is the Beast Land, and the other is the King’s Domain. The Beast Land’s area is more than 10 times larger than that of the King’s Domain. There live many fierce beasts there. Our clan has 108 cities in the Outer Domain. The forest inside is vast, and many Beast Kings live there. Even Lingxi was suppressed by Lord Yan in person. The Boundless Sea in the south is really vast. Many people went to explore it, but none of them ever returned. The Northernmost Sea is even more dangerous. Fortunately, the 13 magnates have placed protective chains in the air so as to enable others to safely enter the King’s Domain.”
Zhang Han nodded slightly.
It seemed that the Dark Shadow Clan hadn’t explored this place much, and Si Nan wouldn’t tell him everything he knew. But the rough idea was that this place consisted of the King’s Domain, Beast Land, Boundless Sea, and Northernmost Sea.
“Have you ever heard about the thunder yang treasures?” Zhang Han continued to pose questions.
So far, on Mount New Moon grew the Thunder Yang Tree, the Thunder Yang Flower, and the Thunder Yang Grass. But the place was still short of the Thunder Yang Crystals and the Thunder Yang Sand. If the five kinds of treasures were gathered together, the place would become the treasured land of Thunder Yang. At that time, the land and the Star Formation of the Five Elements would complement each other with the Five Elements Formation of the Stars. Then, the defense of Mount New Moon would be so strong that even those in the Elixir Realm would have a job to break it.
“Thunder Yang treasures? Are you talking about the Thunder Yang Crystals and the Thunder Yang Grass?” Si Nan raised his eyebrows slightly.
“That’s right.”
Zhang Han’s expression changed slightly. It seemed that at least Si Nan knew something about the Thunder Yang Crystals.
“If you give me more in return, I will tell you the whereabouts of the Thunder Yang Crystals.” Si Nan suddenly put on airs.
“Oh?”
Zhang Han smiled and said, “It seems that you’re not in the position to negotiate.”
“Hahaha, I can even trick my own people, let alone you, an outsider. If you want to know the real whereabouts of that treasure, you need to strengthen my Spirit Battle Method a little more.” Si Nan laughed.
“I’ll increase the power by 40 percent.”
“50 percent.”
Si Nan began to bargain.
It was not until this moment that he realized that the young man in front of him definitely knew much more than he had imagined.
“I’ll offer you 40% tops. You know the actual value of the Thunder Yang Crystals.”
“Deal.”
That was true. In Si Nan’s eyes, the Thunder Yang Crystal was just a rare object. He didn’t have much interest in it.
Or to put it in other words, he didn’t know the real value of the Thunder Yang Crystals at all.
Now that he had gained extra benefits, Si Nan’s heart was overflowing with joy.
He then added, “The Dark Night White Lotus is connected with the Top-grade Crystal Palace by Thunder Yang Crystals. However, it is a little difficult to obtain the Thunder Yang Crystals.”
Si Nan stared unblinkingly at Zhang Han and said slowly, “Once we touched the Dark Night White Lotus, the City Lord of White Lotus City would know it immediately. But because of the distance, even if he cast some restrictions on White Lotus City, I would be able to break them. But the moment we lay hands on the Thunder Yang Crystals, the defense restriction of White Lotus City would be fully activated. I can surely escape, but you may not.”
“How many Thunder Yang Crystals are there?” Zhang Han ignored his words and asked directly.
“Only one piece. It’s about 100 standard crystals in size.”
That would be large enough.
Zhang Han’s face turned calm again.
That sort of bemused Si Nan.
“The Thunder Yang Crystals don’t have much use to human beings. What do you want them for?”
“For collection.”
“No one will buy that!”
Si Nan became serious and asked, “I’ve met several martial artists from the Outer Domains. It seems that only the people from the Kunlun Immortal Realm can communicate with us as smoothly as you do. Oh, by the way, there is another force, which is called the Black White Palace.”
“The Black White Palace?” Zhang Han raised his eyebrows. “Is the Black White Palace in the King’s Domain?”
“Yes, the Black White Palace is an exotic force in the King’s Domain. The Palace Master is a quite ugly woman. But her strength is also very powerful. She is one of the 13 magnates. Six years ago, a disciple of the Black White Palace once passed my city. Hehe.
“And I killed him without effort.”
Si Nan couldn’t help throwing in some scornful remarks. At that time, he was in a bad mood. He happened to see the disciple of the Black White Palace passing by, who was dressed like a martial artist from the Outer Domain. At first, Si Nan mistook him for a normal foreign martial artist and killed him without hesitation. But later, he found the token that the man had carried with him.
Seeing Si Nan’s expression, Zhang Han’s face hardened slightly.
In the secular world, the disciples of the Black White Palace were all legendary masters. Many people felt that they were about to come out and dazzle the world. But unexpectedly, the disciples of this generation could easily be killed by Si Nan.
The Black White Palace was located in King’s Domain in the Ancient Mine, and the Palace Master was one of the 13 magnates. Zhang Han surmised that those magnates might be at the Elixir Last-Stage.
The whole world quickly became much clearer and detailed in Zhang Han’s mind.
There were the Kunlun Immortal Realm, the main secular world, the worldlets, and the Ancient Mine.
Among them, the safest was the worldlets. The worldlets were connected to the secular world. There were the Northernmost Sea and the Boundless Sea in the Ancient Mine. What was inside those places was unknown for the time being. But it could be imagined that the Ancient Mine was the place that displayed part of the accumulated strength of the Saint Warrior Planet.
As for the Kunlun Immortal Realm, it should be a subsidiary space of the Saint Warrior Planet. There might be a way to go to the cosmos.
“Why do I feel that everything on this planet is following the will of a certain person?”
Zhang Han fell silent.
The more he learned about the world, the eerier he found it.
“When are we going to make our move?”
Zhang Han subconsciously looked at his right wrist. He didn’t want to waste time.
“Tomorrow, I’ll send someone to the King’s Domain to make preparations. Our men will summon the two City Lords to King’s Domain the day after tomorrow. We’ll start that night. I think it will take us two days to finish our tasks in the two cities.”
So, it would take four days in total.
That was just as Zhang Han had planned.
Sadly, changes always went beyond plans.
Zhang Han thought that after he went back and took down the Wind Snow School, his life would go back to normal.
But right at this moment…
It was daytime in the secular world. At noon, in the depths of the Kunlun Mountain Range, a mysterious white mist began to spread.
Over a spring…
The space suddenly began to tremble.
“Buzz!”
“Buzz!”
“Buzz!”
One vibration came after another, as though a certain creature was roaring.
“Whiz!”
In the depths of the entire Kunlun Mountain Range, the white mist suddenly expanded at an incredible speed. In an instant, it rose thousands of meters high, followed by a loud bang.
A wave of powerful energy rapidly swept in all directions.
The higher-ups of the National Security Agency first spotted the unusual phenomenon. Ye Tianlang soon rushed over with his men.
At the same time, something peculiar also occurred in North America, England, and their major neighboring countries.
Could this have something to do with the disappearance decades ago of many Wu Dao Grand Masters and martial artists in the God Realm?
Ye Tianlang was under great stress.
When the spread of energy fluctuations lasted for three hours—
“Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!”
Five figures emerged.
One of them was a white-haired old man. Three were middle-aged men. And the last one was a long-haired man in his 30s.
The old man was kind-looking and quiet.
He looked around and said with a sigh, “It’s been more than 50 years since I last came down to the secular world.”
“Daofu, 50 years is not that long for you. Do you really need to sigh?” a middle-aged man said, sort of amused.
“Langfan, you don’t understand.” The old man shook his head slightly, glanced at him, and said, “The Spiritual Qi in the secular world is exhausted and the resources are scarce. It’s not that they are not talented. More than a decade ago, there were powerful figures among those from the secular world, weren’t there?”
“You mean Zhang Mu?”
Another thin-faced, middle-aged man said with a smile, “He is indeed great. Too bad that he holds a grudge against the third prince of the Wind Snow Temple, Nan Feng. He almost died twice at the hands of Nan Feng. Even though he has grown stronger, he is still no match for Nan Feng. Fortunately, he knows his limits and has behaved himself. If he ticked off the master of the Wind Snow Temple and got hunted down, he would surely be killed even if the Deep Valley supported him.”
“Hahaha, how could you say that to my face?”
The long-haired man in his early 30s had a disdainful look on his face. He remarked, “Zhang Mu is no threat to our Wind Snow Temple. He is just a plaything of the third prince. Otherwise, he would have been killed by the third prince long ago. Moreover, the Deep Valley can’t be compared with our Wind Snow School at all.”
