122: My master wants to see you.
As for Gu Jixiao, he was completely immersed in breaking through the Lightning Tribulation.
The Lightning Tribulation, which was extremely dangerous for an ordinary Immortal Emperor, was nothing more than that in Gu Jixiao's eyes.
When the Lightning Tribulation fell upon Gu Jixiao, it was entirely absorbed and refined by the Purple Heaven Divine Body, turning into nourishment for Gu Jixiao's growth.
On the other side, Immortal King Qianyuan had already stopped before the Heavenly Saint Continent.
Looking at the unchanged Heavenly Saint Continent before him, Immortal King Qianyuan couldn't help but frown slightly.
“No invasion? Then who exactly broke the Seal I left behind?”
In the next moment, Immortal King Qianyuan took a step and entered the Heavenly Saint Continent.
Everything seemed not much different from when he left five hundred years ago.
However, Immortal King Qianyuan soon sensed something and arrived at the Immortal Thunder Mountain in a flash.
“The tianlei orb has been taken away.”
Looking at the empty Immortal Thunder Mountain, Immortal King Qianyuan's expression was very unsightly.
Five hundred years ago, it was because a space crack appeared in the Immortal Thunder Mountain that the Gui Huan Clan was able to enter the Heavenly Saint Continent directly through the space crack.
He had left the tianlei orb to suppress the space crack, but he never expected the tianlei orb to be taken away.
“Even someone at the Immortal Realm Peak cannot take the tianlei orb away. Who exactly took the tianlei orb without breaking the Seal?”
Immortal King Qianyuan's expression was extremely unsightly.
He did not feel Life Qi because the tianlei orb was taken away, but because the implications were far-reaching.
Since the other party could take the tianlei orb, perhaps his Seal was also broken by them.
Moreover, only this could explain why the Heavenly Saint Continent's Seal was broken but no enemy attack was seen.
Thus, Immortal King Qianyuan closed his eyes and carefully sensed once more.
After a long while, he finally opened his eyes.
“The Ancient Heavenly Dynasty? How interesting.”
During the time he had his eyes closed, Immortal King Qianyuan's Divine Sense had swept across the entire Heavenly Saint Continent and investigated everything he wanted to know clearly.
In the next moment, Immortal King Qianyuan appeared before Great Emperor Tianguang.
Great Emperor Tianguang was currently impacting the Immortal Realm.
Since the Seal had already been broken, it was time for him to take another step forward.
But the moment Immortal King Qianyuan appeared before him, Great Emperor Tianguang abruptly opened his eyes.
Seeing Immortal King Qianyuan, Great Emperor Tianguang's expression was stunned for a moment, but he quickly reacted and hurriedly stood up.
“Junior pays respects to Senior Qianyuan.”
“Rise. What has happened in the Heavenly Saint Continent during these days? And what is the situation with that Ancient Heavenly Dynasty?”
Immortal King Qianyuan waved his hand and said.
While investigating the situation of the Heavenly Saint Continent, although Immortal King Qianyuan had already soul-searched some beings with weaker cultivation bases and knew of the Ancient Heavenly Dynasty's existence.
In his view, it was still better to ask Great Emperor Tianguang.
After all, Great Emperor Tianguang was a Peak Great Emperor and should be the only one who knew the details of the Ancient Heavenly Dynasty.
Although with Immortal King Qianyuan's strength, he could simply go to the Ancient Heavenly Dynasty to ask clearly, to him, the Ancient Heavenly Dynasty was an uncertain factor.
If he were to rashly alert the enemy, he feared it would lead to unnecessary trouble.
Hearing this, Great Emperor Tianguang gave a bitter laugh and then spoke to recount the events of these days.
In Great Emperor Tianguang's view, these things were not some secret; one only needed a bit of investigation to know.
Having heard everything from Great Emperor Tianguang's mouth, Immortal King Qianyuan showed a thoughtful expression and then wiped away Great Emperor Tianguang's memory regarding his return with a wave of his hand.
In the next moment, Immortal King Qianyuan appeared outside the Heavenly Saint Continent.
“This matter must be considered carefully; this Ancient Heavenly Dynasty is definitely not simple.”
According to the memories of the people in the Heavenly Saint Continent, the Ancient Heavenly Dynasty had emerged in just half a year.
Furthermore, in a very short time, this Gu Jixiao had broken through from Peak Quasi-Emperor to Peak Great Emperor, and he had even taken the tianlei orb.
Therefore, he couldn't be sure what Gu Jixiao's intentions were, or if Gu Jixiao was a spy sent by the Gui Huan Clan.
“In any case, I should first notify the Commander of this matter.”
Thinking of this, Immortal King Qianyuan turned around, intending to rush back.
But the moment he turned, he discovered a figure appearing behind him, blocking his way.
Most importantly, the moment Immortal King Qianyuan saw the other party, he actually couldn't sense any aura from them.
A Powerhouse!
Definitely a top Powerhouse!
Immortal King Qianyuan's heart was heavy as he looked at the other party and thought to himself.
“Senior, may I ask what your business is?”
Immortal King Qianyuan took a deep breath to calm himself, then looked at the other party, cupped his hands, and asked in a respectful tone.
Wang Xuan looked at him with a calm expression.
“Come with me, my Master wants to see you.”
As Wang Xuan's words fell, a wave of horror instantly surged within Immortal King Qianyuan's heart.
He didn't expect such a powerful existence to actually have a Master?
It was hard to imagine just how powerful his Master was.
And now he had no choice, for the person before him alone could easily kill him, let alone the mysterious Master behind the other party.
Following the other party was the best choice.
As for contacting the Five Elements Immortal Venerable?
Immortal King Qianyuan indicated that he didn't dare.
The other party was clearly also an existence in the Immortal Venerable Realm; before a Powerhouse of this level, any of his small movements would be seen through.
He feared that the moment after he contacted the Five Elements Immortal Venerable, he would be slapped to death by the other party.
After taking Immortal King Qianyuan, Wang Xuan brought him before Gu Jixiao in an instant.
Looking at Gu Jixiao now, his aura had stabilized at the Immortal Emperor Peak, and he was even only half a step away from breaking through to the Immortal Venerable Realm.
“It seems the power of this Lightning Tribulation isn't strong enough; it actually can't push me to the Immortal Venerable Realm.”
Gu Jixiao thought to himself.
But he didn't feel too much disdain in his heart.
His Points were still skyrocketing at a terrifying speed; with a few more Draws for cultivation base, he should be able to break through to the Immortal Venerable.
After his Breakthrough, Wang Xuan brought Immortal King Qianyuan before him.
Upon seeing Immortal King Qianyuan, Gu Jixiao sized him up for a moment, but soon withdrew his gaze.
Looking at Immortal King Qianyuan again, his heart was also full of shock when he saw Gu Jixiao.
Because he recognized Gu Jixiao's identity as that mysterious existence of the Ancient Heavenly Dynasty.
And what shocked Immortal King Qianyuan the most was Gu Jixiao's cultivation base.
Didn't Great Emperor Tianguang say that Gu Jixiao was only a Peak Great Emperor?
You're telling me I can't see through a Peak Great Emperor?
This must be at least an existence at the Late Stage of the Immortal Emperor.
For a moment, Great Emperor Tianguang's level of importance towards Gu Jixiao reached an inexpressible level.
But most importantly, which side was Gu Jixiao on?
