Chapter 883: Return to Floodgate Realm, Level 9 Talisman
Hearing this, Leng Yuehua and the others were momentarily stunned before understanding dawned on them.
Indeed.
If those Mahayana Daolords really went all out, causing this world to collapse, the backlash of karma they would face would be immense.
Not to mention anything else, ascending to the immortal realms would become an unreachable dream for them.
Additionally, the fortunes of their sects would likely suffer, and they might face dangers such as deviating during cultivation due to adverse karmic reactions, which would just be the tip of the iceberg considering the potential collective fate and karmic retribution their sects could endure.
So.
Unless absolutely necessary, they would certainly keep the battle confined to a certain extent.
Indeed.
After several more days of conflict, a ceasefire seemed imminent as both sides had exhausted their strategies without being able to overcome the other.
Eventually, the area surrounding the herb garden became a temporary demarcation line, dividing this world between them.
However, everyone was aware that this truce was only temporary.
The balance of power, once disturbed, would likely end the adherence to this initial agreement.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
At this moment, golden tokens suddenly flew from the hands of the Mahayana Daolords, landing in the hands of leaders from various sects and families present.
These tokens represented the highest decree from the Floodgate Realm, a Daolord command.
The issuance of a Daolord command indicated that significant events were unfolding in the Floodgate Realm, requiring every sect and family to send representatives to the designated meeting point.
This time, the directive was clearly focused on this new world rather than matters within the Floodgate Realm itself.
Both Haoran Sect and Thunderclap Valley, where Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan resided, had received such a command.
The directive was straightforward, asking them to gather at a place called Mount Dragoncrest, the Pantheon Sect’s base in this world, in three years.
Both Qin Shenwu and Yun Yizhen understood that much of their efforts would now need to be devoted to this new world.
Given the presence of Abyssal Demons, it was unthinkable for them, the cultivators from Floodgate Realm, to allow these beings to grow unchecked.
They must find all possible means to curb their presence, likely the primary objective behind the Daolord command.
A month later.
Jiang Chengxuan and the group, following Qin Shenwu, had temporarily returned to the Floodgate Realm.
Upon their arrival, Qin Shenwu promptly summoned a talisman emitting a shimmering purple glow from his body.
The aura it exuded was vast, instilling an almost irresistible force in Jiang Chengxuan and the others.
“This is? A Level 9 Talisman!”
Everyone was astounded, wondering why their Shifu would suddenly bring out such a powerful talisman.
It wasn’t until they returned to the Haoran Sect’s gate that Qin Shenwu stored the talisman away.
“Shifu, what was that talisman just now?”
Xie Xiangyao couldn’t contain her curiosity and asked.
Qin Shenwu smiled and nodded.
Indeed, that talisman is one of the cornerstones of our sect, a Level 9 Talisman.
As for why I brought it out…”
His expression turned serious as he mentioned,
“You haven’t forgotten about the other Mahayana Daolord in the Qiankun Hall, have you?”
With that reminder, Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, and Xie Xiangyao immediately understood the implication.
Indeed.
With so many casualties inflicted by them in the new world, if Qin Shenwu didn’t take any precautions, the other party might very well strike at them upon their return.
The power of a Mahayana Daolord wasn’t something that anyone present could casually withstand.
Thank goodness.
Qin Shenwu, along with Yun Yizhen from Thunderclap Valley, had foreseen this issue and prepared accordingly.
“Now that we are back in the sect, there’s no need to worry.
Although Daolord Southbright from Qiankun Hall is in Mahayana Realm, his breakthrough was not perfect, far from flawless.
Unless you provoke him without absolute certainty, he’s unlikely to act rashly.” After discussing some matters, Qin Shenwu was about to take his leave when Jiang Chengxuan stopped him.
“What’s the matter, Chengxuan? Is there something else?”
Jiang Chengxuan nodded, taking out a jade bottle from his possession and handing it to Qin Shenwu,
“Shifu, these are some items I discovered while exploring the new world. They might be helpful for your breakthrough to the Mahayana Realm.”
“Huh?”
Hearing Jiang Chengxuan’s words, Qin Shenwu was visibly surprised.
Given his current level of cultivation and realm, there were not many things that could aid him.
Curiously, he accepted the jade bottle from Jiang Chengxuan and gently opened
Upon seeing the swirling purple qi inside the bottle, his calm demeanor immediately shifted to one of shock.
“This is…?”
“Hiss!”
Involuntarily, Qin Shenwu drew in a sharp breath.
At this moment, he had recognized the contents of the jade bottle.
It was the Primordial Purple Qi from that new world.
This was a treasure that could only appear at the dawn of a world’s birth, containing vast amounts of creation and foundational rules.
A coveted treasure for any cultivator aspiring to the path of immortality.
It was beyond belief that his own disciple had managed to find such a treasure.
Truly a stroke of destiny.
After a while.
Qin Shenwu managed to calm the shock in his heart.
He turned to Jiang Chengxuan, and a smile of satisfaction finally appeared on his face.
“Chengxuan, this gift you’ve given me is indeed very important to me.
With it, whether a hundred years or merely ten, I’m confident I can attempt to break through to the legendary Mahayan Realm.
Thus, I will not stand on ceremony with you.
Thank you.”
Saying this, he carefully stored away the jade bottle..
