"Interesting!"
Jiang Yuan looked at the scenery on the map, thinking that if there was a Secret Realm, it was likely to be accessed using Merit Tokens.
Considering the setup that could deceive everyone, allowing even Evil Cultivators to successfully undergo Thunder Tribulation, it could not possibly be the work of ordinary Array Masters; furthermore, the materials used must be special. Even the rapidly growing Leisure Sect couldn’t have many places like the Immortal Peak, dedicated to tribulation crossing.
By cutting off their retreat, the Evil Cultivators obsessed with successfully crossing tribulations and advancing could be shattered by lightning, acting as a strong deterrent to other cultivators tempted to fall into the evil path!
After listening to the little fox spirit gossip for half a day, Jiang Yuan sipped tea and nodded, "Thanks to Miss Hu Jiu for providing so much information, I will verify it one by one. If the situation at Immortal Peak is true, I will need Miss Hu Jiu to help spread some secret intelligence."
Destroy the place of tribulation crossing, then let the popular little fox spread the "rumors" about the Leisure Sect’s Evil Cultivators dying in the Thunder Tribulation.
In a bustling place like Trapped Snake Island, news spreads quickly, and maybe something else can be gained. For example, the Leisure Sect’s other tribulation crossing "Holy Lands" above the Wilderness.
He instructed the little fox spirit;
Miss Hu Jiu nodded repeatedly, her knack for gossip instantly sparked ideas on what speech to use to turn the "rumors" into a viral gossip, spreading the news from Trapped Snake Island to the ends of the earth in a day!
Meanwhile, focus on searching for places the Leisure Sect members might frequent, and then send messages to Young Mr. Jiang. With you saying one thing and me another, won’t the relationship gradually get closer?
The brief meeting concluded, Hu Zhile bid farewell to his younger sister, then teleported together with Yun Mo to Carefree City.
While hunting Demon Beasts for training, they kept an ear out for news related to the Leisure Sect.
Active in Carefree City were mercenaries who slayed Demon Beasts, all seasoned fighters brave in combat, with various channels for gathering information. Gossip circulated among them was rare; most were credible trade information.
Hu Zhile, relying on his fox spirit qualities, traveled far and wide, and during his half-year training in Carefree City, had already forged close relations with heroes from all walks of life, quietly gathering intelligence on the Leisure Sect to ease Mr. Jiang’s worries was not difficult.
The Sect Leader of Cloud Concealment Sect, learning of Mr. Jiang’s needs, immediately ordered the outside disciples of the sect to pay attention and inquire. He also personally consulted the divination, and the augury indicated the Leisure Sect was like clouds gathering, threatening to unleash a great chaos to shake Wilderness World!
"It seems, for both public and private reasons, I must hurry to eradicate the Leisure Sect, else if they gain momentum, it’ll be a huge trouble," Jiang Yuan thought, best to nip this chaos in the bud.
If not, then it’s necessary to weaken the Leisure Sect’s strength as much as possible, so they can’t cause too much destruction.
As long as they can wait for Yan Xuan and Huo Jun to ascend as Divine Beasts, Wilderness World won’t be endangered, and as the master just obtained a new island courtyard in the Wilderness World, he must spare no effort.
The Spirit Medicine needed to restore the Divine Soul of the Vermilion Bird hasn’t been refined yet;
Almost all side quests are stuck;
Friends of Lord Sang, eagerly awaited for him to take the Ghost Realm under control, and fortunately, the intelligence provided by the little fox spirit indicated that Immortal Peak was within the jurisdiction of Wuhai Zizhou’s lordship.
He immediately contacted Lord Sang to first meet the Lord of Wuhai Zizhou to establish rapport before conducting actions on their territory.
The Wilderness was shrouded in the night.
The season entered winter’s first day, but Lord Sang Lishan of Yunmeng Mountain had been enjoying good fortune lately.
The main reason was shedding the unpredictable time bombs in his hands, no longer needing to strain himself to suppress and seal the extremely dangerous Ghost Realm, allowing him to focus his full energy on governing his jurisdiction.
Especially those Mountain Masters with malicious intentions, a slight deterrent made them realize they are far from the end of the road, whether they like it or not!
With the Mountain Masters pacified, his ears were much quieter, and he could finally relax after being tense for so long.
Receiving Mr. Jiang’s message, Sang Lishan became even happier!
Besides other advantages, just introducing the mysterious ally to take control of the Ghost Realm was a major favor, beneficial in numerous ways.
Among the seven lords of Wilderness World, apart from a solitary one, an obsessive cultivation fanatic, one always either training or in seclusion, and one who has been silent since injury years ago, the other three have good relations with him.
But no matter how good the relationship is, it’s ultimately interest-driven.
As a lord, naturally, the priority is the interests of the Demon Cultivators and Demon Beasts within the jurisdiction, personal grudges and friendships take a back seat. Gaining this favor, Sang Lishan will find it much easier to exchange resources and seek assistance in the future.
Thus, he was much more enthusiastic than Jiang Yuan imagined, not only getting up immediately to head for the agreed location but also bringing a generous gift to thank Mr. Jiang for his righteous act in eliminating hazards from Wilderness World.
After casual greetings, Sang Lishan led Jiang Yuan directly to teleport to the entrance of the Lord of Wuhai Zizhou’s residence.
"Long time no see, how have you been, Brother Sang?" The Lord of Wuhai Zizhou was a Female Demon Cultivator, dressed in a black and purple outfit, sharp and simple, with an imposing demeanor, accompanied by only two disciples on each side, five Demon Cultivators received the message and waited at the door.
Upon seeing that the accompanying was a human youth, the lord Jiang Bai slightly astonished, "Is this the Mr. Jiang Brother Sang mentioned?"
