"Even so, you cannot underestimate him. He has been collecting many top artifacts throughout the years. Unless you can overwhelm him with your strength, I don't recommend you to fight head-on with him." Qing Xiaoting said further.
"However, I personally don't think he would show up by himself. With his cautious personality, he must first grasp all of your trump cards before taking action. So, you are likely to face an endless pursuit from him and Xing Tengfei from now on."
Yun Lintian nodded gently. "I understand."
She looked at Yun Lintian and said. "In fact, you have an advantage… Those who stepped into the Divine Foundation Realm cannot display their full strength here. Otherwise, they will be crushed by the world's boundary."
She paused briefly and continued with a solemn expression. "Unless someone has successfully broken the boundary."
Yun Lintian frowned slightly. "I remember that the Azure Palace seems to hold a secret about the tunnel to the Abyssal World. Is it true, Senior?"
Qing Xiaoting replied. "Yes. Back then, Xing Tengfei, Weilan Jian, Senior Tianqi, Senior Skymist Emperor, Senior Nantian, Senior Lei, Senior Yun, and I had jointly sealed the tunnel leading to the Abyssal World. Because Weilan Jian's Azure Dragon God's bloodline was effective against the Abyssal Beasts, he used this chance to propose that he would guard the seal."
She raised her hand, and a rounded black token appeared in her hand. "Naturally, the rest didn't agree with him. In the end, we ended up using our power to create this token. If Weilan Jian wanted to open the seal, he needed to gather all the eight tokens."
Yun Lintian looked at the black token and sensed a familiar aura from it. He then took the Skymist Seal out and said. "Perhaps this is Senior Skymist's token?"
Qing Xiaoting was surprised to see the seal. "Indeed." She took a deep look at him and said. "I recently heard the news about the disappearance of the Skymist Ancient City."
Yun Lintian didn't hide it. "It was me."
"As expected from a fate-destroying person like you." Qing Xiaoting said calmly.
"Fate-destroying?" Yun Lintian shook his head. "It would be good if I could do it."
Since he came into contact with the Beyond Heaven King's legacy, he had already discovered that his fate was basically arranged by someone. It could be his father or the Beyond Heaven King himself.
Sometimes, he felt it would be good if he didn't obtain the legacy so he could live a peaceful life. But he also understood that he needed enough strength to achieve the life he wanted. It was just that he didn't like the feeling of being controlled by someone.
Nevertheless, he didn't hate it entirely. After all, the path someone opened for him allowed him to gain enormous strength to protect the people around him. He was genuinely grateful for it.
However, if possible, he hoped to forge his path and write his destiny by himself. Perhaps he could do it once he possessed enough strength to control his fate.
"Senior, how many people like you out there?" Shen Liqiu asked curiously. In fact, her great-grandfather had told her something about this, but she didn't think it was possible before.
Qing Xiaoting shook her head. "Each one of them is not ordinary. If they wanted to hide from the world, no one would be able to find them. My estimation is that there should be more than twenty of such."
"What about the Divine Thunder Palace and the Myriad Pill Palace?" Shen Liqiu asked further.
"Their ancestors are still around. The ancestor of the Myriad Pill Palace, Du Shoushan, was regarded as the Alchemy Emperor back then. He had saved countless lives during the invasion." A trace of disgust appeared in Qing Xiaoting's eyes as she said further.
"However, he is not what people think he is. He is, in fact, the most sinister person among them. In order to pursue a higher realm of alchemy, he had done countless inhumane experiments on people. Even a newborn baby was no exception."
Shen Liqiu immediately got angry. "What a disgusting person!"
Yun Lintian frowned deeply. As a doctor himself, what he hated the most was the kind of person who practiced medicine for his own benefit and disregarded living beings' lives. He had met several people like this back on Earth.
He couldn't imagine how many people had died in Du Shoushan's hand throughout the years. A million? Or perhaps a billion?"
"His last seen was two thousand years ago. I don't know what he is doing right now." Qing Xiaoting said.
"As for Senior Lei Yun, he suffered a severe injury and is still recovering today."
"No wonder the Divine Thunder Palace is in a mess right now." Shen Liqiu said. She didn't forget about the news of the disappearance of Lei Zhenxiang.
"Does Senior know about this?" Yun Lintian asked. Although he had no deep relationship with Lei Zhenxiang, they were, after all, acquaintances. He wouldn't hesitate to help him when there was a chance.
Qing Xiaoting thought for a moment and replied. "I heard about it. It should be Lei Yubai's conspiracy. However, he won't dare to kill Lei Zhenxiang. Once Senior Lei knew about it, he would have no way to retreat."
Yun Lintian nodded slowly. It was understandable that Lei Yubai wanted to keep a life-saving card in his hand. If that was the case, Lei Zhenxiang was pretty safe.
Qing Xiaoting was about to say something she suddenly heard Jian Wuming's report. "Ancestor, it is as your prediction. There are movements from the Star Gazing Palace and the Azure Palace. Their spies have become active now, and their goal is Divine Master Yun. How should we deal with them?"
Qing Xiaoting thought for a moment and said. "Let them dance for a while."
"Understood." Jian Wuming responded and went away.
"It's faster than I thought." Shen Liqiu frowned.
"Fast? I don't think so. It's more like they know that Jian Xu has been dealt with. This is the right timing for them." Yun Lintian curled his lips.
