Chapter 807: Chapter 266: “Seems like we’ve played too big this time!”_2

“Could it be that Father did this to find the ‘Luck of Yin Soul’ for me?”

“Forcibly opening the entrance between the underworld and the Mortal World of Pingxi Continent, then sending people in to obtain the ‘Luck of Yin Soul’?”

“No.”

The elder shook his head with a hint of helplessness, “Miss, you’re slightly overestimating our Bai Family. Although our family is indeed a top power on the Qi Tian Continent, we currently do not possess the ability to forcibly open the passage between the underworld and the Mortal World.”

“This is not something that the Bai Family can do, nor is it something the patriarch can do.”

“Furthermore… we simply have no need to do so.”

“The twelve lower Continents of the Vast Continent are almost in ruins. Essentially, all twelve of these lower Continents have experienced collapses and sinkholes. There’s simply no need for us to take action, and among the twelve subordinate second-grade Continents of the Vast Continent, the Vast Continent is the one suffering the most severe destruction.”

“However, the patriarch indeed sent people to try, but to no avail. The difficulty of obtaining ‘Luck of Yin Soul’ in the underworld is akin to the difficulty of obtaining ‘Heavenly Pride Fortune’ in the Mortal World. Once you enter the underworld, you have to start cultivating from scratch. It’s even less likely to acquire any ‘Luck of Yin Soul’. Hence, the patriarch’s current approach is to send people to the underworld to find those who have previously obtained ‘Luck of Yin Soul’, and then trade it back from them.”

“But finding these people is quite challenging. In an unfamiliar place where revealing one’s identity could bring fatal disasters, the underworld doesn’t use Spirit Stones, so what to trade with is a problem. The ‘Luck of Yin Soul’ itself cannot be traded, how to trade it also poses a problem, and then there’s…”

The elder, who had been chatting excitedly to himself, suddenly noticed the light fading from the young lady’s eyes. He quickly realized, and hastily added, “Although there are some difficulties at present, the patriarch said that the solutions are almost ready, and we believe it won’t be long before we can gather nine strands of ‘Luck of Yin Soul’.”

“Once we have them, Miss, you can return home and reunite with Father.”

The young lady’s eyelids drooped, and she sat silently on the spot. She knew all too well that hope was slim, but upon learning that no innocent lives were harmed, she still breathed a sigh of relief. Otherwise, if it cost the lives of millions of living creatures to save her own life.

She would rather die herself.

It’s not that she was very kind, but it would make her life unbearable in the future, and she’d be plagued by nightmares…

…

Vast Continent.

At this moment, nearly every person above the Void Refining Cultivation unconsciously looked towards Xuantian State, wondering what was happening there. But after reaching Void Refining Cultivation, they could generally sense the flow of the power between heaven and earth.

And at this time, they all clearly sensed the power of the entire Vast Continent converging towards Xuantian State.

Although they didn’t know what had happened, they were certain that something big was taking place.

And in Xuantian State… the person who has been creating the biggest buzz recently is naturally Chen Qiu!

Despite the state boundaries, Chen Qiu’s name resonated throughout the entire Vast Continent. Almost a year has passed since the Throne struggle, and the Thrones of the twelve states have mostly been stabilized, with most rulers sitting for a full year, with just a few exceptions.

Once all the rulers have been in place for a full year, the battle for the ‘Unique King’ would officially begin.

Almost every ‘King’ considers Chen Qiu their biggest competitor, although his Cultivation has just broken through to Unification. But his recent fame is too great, and with the Heavenly Dao Top Grade Unification Killing Move, he’s even more daunting.

Those few who are privy to Chen Qiu’s situation now await hopelessly.

They clearly understand that when the competition for the Unique Throne begins, it will mark their time of death, but… they have no other options.

Perhaps they might seize the moment when the state boundaries are lifted to rush in and kidnap Chen Qiu’s family to force him to commit suicide on the spot, yet Chen Qiu has no family, only subordinates.

But… no one is foolish enough to kidnap someone else’s subordinates and threaten someone else. Anyone with a brain would know how to choose between the lives of their subordinates and their own life.

“Sigh…”

In Pingxi State, the white-haired elder in the ‘Taiping Prefecture’, currently lay relaxed and smiling cheerfully in a rocking chair, also feeling the power of the world flowing towards Xuantian State.

What happened.

He didn’t know, didn’t understand, but he didn’t care either.

All he knew was how right his decision to fake his death had been.

Just then—

A servant suddenly announced that someone asked to see him, and the visitor was the current King of Pingxi. As soon as they met, without any preamble, the newly appointed King of Pingxi spoke anxiously.

“Something doesn’t seem quite right. Chen Qiu has been stirring up too much lately, and now even the heavenly and earthly powers are surging toward Xuantian State. Chen Qiu must have stumbled upon another great opportunity; what should we do about it?”

“What’s there to fear?”

The ancestor of Taiping Prefecture spoke with a chuckle, “Didn’t you say it yourself at the beginning? As a Cultivator, why fear death? Now it’s good, you can face your ‘Heavenly tribulation’.”

“I warned you not to vie for the Pingxi Throne. Didn’t you think about why I went to such lengths to throw away this Pingxi Throne? What for?”

“Poor child, pitiful.”

The current King of Pingxi, at the peak of Middle-stage Unification, only having the Mid-stage Unification Cultivation himself, could speak in a teasing tone clearly because he had his confidence. Having once again gone through the opportunity of the ‘Sleeping Immortal,’ his current state was brimming with good fortune.
