Chapter 925 Saving the Heavenly Lord of Penglai

"Besides...we're not the most important thing right now."

Yun Xuance continued, "Li Huaiyou only sent two Cave Heaven cultivators, which shows that he still doesn't take us seriously enough... If I were Li Huaiyou, I would use all my strength even when hunting a rabbit. Today, the people who came would not be Cave Heaven cultivators, but Mahayana cultivators, or even Celestial Immortals, to ensure that there are absolutely no mistakes."

"Of course, Li Huaiyou is probably still a nobody in the Divine Cauldron Immortal Dynasty, just a mere staff member of a royal palace. He probably can't afford to invite an immortal to descend to earth... But at least he should send a Mahayana cultivator to be worthy of us two strategists of the Immortal Continent."

Jing Yu smiled upon hearing this: "You all know how to pat yourselves on the back... A Mahayana cultivator fighting against a Nascent Soul cultivator two major realms apart? No Mahayana cultivator can afford to lose face like that. Even if Li Huaiyou could really get a Mahayana cultivator to come, if this got out, it would be a huge loss of face for that Mahayana cultivator."

"When it comes to our future survival, what's the value of face?"

Yun Xuance shook his head: "If I were a Celestial Immortal of the Divine Cauldron Immortal Dynasty, let alone two Nascent Soul cultivators, even two Qi Refining cultivators, as long as the other party is the chosen one destined to overthrow the Divine Cauldron, I would personally come here and completely annihilate their physical body and soul."

“If you were a Celestial Immortal of the Divine Cauldron Immortal Dynasty, you would have to do everything yourself, and you would be exhausted.” Jing Yu shook his head.

Yang Dingfeng pondered for a moment and said, "Wait, can Li Huaiyou really not command the Celestial Immortals of the Divine Cauldron Immortal Dynasty?"

"What do you mean?"

Yang Dingfeng frowned and said, "It is true that he is of low status, but his master, Prince Xian [Ying Qianwen], is second only to the Crown Prince [Ying Qianjue] among all the princes. If Prince Xian could reach the ears of the Emperor..."

"To put it bluntly, although Third Sister and I are the strategists, our wisdom is no match for absolute strength. In the end, the winner will have to be determined by our cultivation level and supernatural abilities."

"The key to victory on our side has always been Xiao Buyi, the Heavenly Lord of Penglai, who has already achieved the Great Perfection of Mahayana!"

"If I were the Prince of Xian, I would persuade several Celestial Immortal Ancestors of the Divine Cauldron Imperial Clan to mobilize their entire forces and vow to kill Xiao Buyi..."

"The question is, does Li Huaiyou truly have information about Senior Xiao's whereabouts?"

Jing Yu said uncertainly, "Who knows? In Li Huaiyou's so-called memories of his 'previous life,' he probably didn't have the same status as he does now. How could he know all the secrets of a Mahayana cultivator? Unless it's some extremely significant event."

"Besides, Fatty Ye has always been by Senior Xiao's side. He is incredibly lucky. If there are any calamities or crises, they will have to avoid him. There shouldn't be any major trouble."

Upon hearing this, Yun Xuance's expression suddenly changed to one of alarm: "Oh no..."

Before she finished speaking, the void above her head trembled, and several cultivators of varying levels of cultivation stepped out and descended into the mortal world.

The one with the highest cultivation level was a middle-aged Confucian scholar in the early stage of Mahayana Buddhism, wearing a square scarf. On either side of this scholar were Chang Jingsi and Ye Xingyun.

Ye Xingyun first bowed to the middle-aged scholar and said, "Thank you, Senior Qi, for giving me this favor..."

He then turned to look at Yun Xuance and the others, his smile widening:

"Third Sister! Old Yang! It's been thousands of years since we last met. How have you been? I spent quite a while sensing that magical treasure to find your place. Oh... Mysterious Mirror, what are you doing here?"

"Come, come, let me introduce you... This senior Mahayana practitioner is Qi Songfeng, the founder of the Songfeng Pavilion in our Immortal Continent, who calls himself Songfeng Jushi."

"I recognize this Xuanjing too, he's Chang Jingsi from the Sword Pavilion."

Yun Xuance, however, didn't have time to greet him. He suddenly stood up and shouted, "Fatty Ye, where is Senior Xiao, the Heavenly Lord of Penglai? Is he still hiding his identity in the Mohe Sect?"

"Senior Xiao?"

Ye Xingyun asked in confusion, "He left the Mohe Sect a few days ago, supposedly to find a place with auspicious feng shui and seek to become a celestial immortal."

"That place is extremely hidden, and can even conceal most of the phenomena of becoming an immortal. It is said that it was a place that Senior Xiao found with great difficulty."

Yang Dingfeng, realizing the seriousness of the situation, said gravely:

Do you know where this treasure land is?

"Of course I don't know."

Unexpectedly, Ye Xingyun shook his head: "In order to prevent the news from leaking out, Senior Xiao did not tell anyone the location of this treasure land. He went there alone."

"So stealthy that even if all the Celestial Immortals of the Divine Cauldron Immortal Dynasty were to mobilize, they would still be unable to find Senior Xiao."

Ye Xingyun then smiled and said, "However, if Senior Xiao can truly transform from mortal to immortal in this hidden place, then this place will surely become famous throughout the world in the future, and everyone will know that this is where Xiao Buyi became an immortal."

"But that's a matter for the future."

Jing Yu sensed something was wrong and quickly said, "Senior Xiao may be in mortal danger..."

Ye Xingyun was taken aback: "Transforming from mortal to immortal is a matter of life and death. Even with Senior Xiao's talent, he wouldn't dare say he's 100% sure. Calling it a life-or-death crisis wouldn't be an exaggeration... If things go wrong, he might even become a rogue immortal. But Senior Xiao is about to become an immortal. Xuanjing, you don't need to curse him to fail like this."

"Sigh, that's not what I meant!" Jing Yu stamped her foot: "The Divine Cauldron Immortal Dynasty is very likely to have a [Reborn Person]... and one whose future memories are deduced with extreme precision!"

"If he knew the location of Senior Xiao's secret place of ascension to immortality, then..."

Yun Xuance murmured, "That precious land is not a place to become an immortal, but rather the burial place of the Heavenly Lord of Penglai..."

"what?!"

Ye Xingyun was taken aback: "Then... what should we do?"

Jing Yu closed his eyes and pondered. He fiddled with the dense causal threads between his navel and finally picked out the one that connected him to Xiao Buyi, and carefully sensed it.

Following the direction of this causal line, he vaguely sensed Xiao Buyi's approximate location and couldn't help but take a deep breath:

"Senior Qi Songfeng? This junior now needs you to take me and Fatty Ye through the void to find Senior Xiao..."

"Do you know where Fellow Daoist Xiao is?" Qi Songfeng asked in surprise.

"This junior has a secret technique that allows me to sense Senior Xiao's approximate location through a little causal sense... but it's not accurate. Senior may need to cooperate by traversing the void multiple times to gradually narrow down the area."

"But...but..."

Qi Songfeng hesitated at this moment: "I am just a cultivator in the early stage of Mahayana. My combat strength is worlds apart from that of Fellow Daoist Xiao, a cultivator at the peak of Mahayana. Not to mention the difference between immortals and mortals... If I really encounter an opponent at the level of an immortal, I will be nothing but a piece of cake."

"If the Celestial Immortals of the Divine Cauldron really come out in full force, what use would I, a Mahayana cultivator in the early stage, be with you two Nascent Soul cultivators?"

Jing Yu narrowed his eyes and said confidently, "There's no need to confront them directly... As long as we get near Senior Xiao, I... will have a way to protect Senior Xiao's life."

"However, if I were to go alone, I might only have a 50% chance of success."

"Fifty percent? And that's assuming we don't directly clash with the Divine Cauldron Celestial Immortal?" Qi Songfeng's eyes lit up. "Then what's the point of bringing along young friend Ye?"

Jing Yu said seriously, "If we bring Fatty Ye along, the 50% chance of success might become 99%."
