  Even though the Incongruence Divine Mother was present, they still had to be wary of others.

  Without mentioning the Immeasurable Heavenly Lord and the Future Buddha, the Demon Race and the orthodox Buddhism had resurfaced within the world. According to the news, it was confirmed that both sides had experts of the Grand Heavenly Immortal Realm present during the war.

  The Buddhas of the Pure Lands and the Great Sages of the Demon Race were utterly different from the heretic Heaven Immortals.

  Although the two were fighting against each other, they weren’t as brutal as the Blessed Lands of the White Lotus and the Immortal Court. No matter if it was the Pure Lands or the Astro Mountain Starry Seas, they reserved enough strength to counter any unexpected changes. While they were keeping track of the Nine Underworlds, they were also wary of Suo Mingzhang, the Incongruence Divine Mother, and the others.

  The Pure Lands and the Astro Mountain Starry Seas, who had always been hiding for the past years, had finally reemerged in the world. They assisted the Immortal Court and the Blessed Lands of the White Lotus, respectively. Yan Zhaoge couldn’t stop himself from thinking of the worst possible outcome.

  That was why he had the thoughts of bringing the Roving Jade Heavens along with him.

  Theoretically, as long as the Profound Sovereign and the Dragon Spring Emperor’s lineage left the Roving Jade Heavens, Yan Zhaoge’s opponents wouldn’t be targeting the Roving Jade Heavens solely for Yan Zhaoge and his Pill Hall.

  However, since he would bring them along, why not bring those abundances of resources and the citizens along?

  The Profound Sovereign’s lineage had firm control over the Roving Jade Heavens. With their cooperation, things went smoothly.

  Even the Cloud Conquest Emperor and the others wouldn’t object.

  The main reason why they were hostile towards the World beyond Worlds was that they were against the ideology of the World beyond Worlds under the control of the Earthly Sovereign.

  If there were an issue, that would be the grudge between Yue Zhenbei and the Roving Jade Heavens.

  However, just like how the Roving Jade Heavens and the World beyond Worlds were separated in the Dao universe, it would be the same within the Pill Hall’s cosmos.

  Although the Prime Clear successor held a grudge against the Sword Sovereign, when given a chance to escape from the heretics’ threats in a completely new environment, they definitely wouldn’t hesitate to accept the offer.

  For Yan Zhaoge, this was an opportunity to settle down the conflict between the two sides and prevent the Profound Sovereign and the Dragon Spring Emperor’s lineage from being in an awkward position.

  “Although the pill qi within the Pill Hall cosmos has yet to dissipate completely, and the boundaries between worlds still have yet to stabilize, the general infrastructure is already set,” said Yan Zhaoge to everyone. “Now, we have enough space to fit in the Roving Jade Heavens, and the lower realms under their control.”

  Previously, when the Pill Hall’s cosmos wasn’t stable yet, the various territories of the World beyond Worlds and the lower realms like the Eight Extremity World could barely fit inside.

  However, through the development during the past twenty years, and under Yan Zhaoge’s continuous refinement, the Pill Hall’s cosmos was already far different from the past.

  In truth, Yan Zhaoge had combined his refinement of the Pill Hall with his cultivation during the past few years.

  As the Pill Hall’s cosmos stabilized further, not only was his control over the Pill Hall getting more assertive, he could even feel that he was about to take the final step of his current cultivation realm.

  The time to bring the Roving Jade Heavens away was also finally ripe.

  “If that’s the case, my main body shall preside by the Pill Hall, while my clone shall go to the Roving Jade Heavens,” said Yan Zhaoge slowly to everyone present.

  History's Strongest Senior Brother Chapter 1332 - Return to the Roving Jade Heavens Again

  “Others might be fine, but Practitioner Ziteng…” The Astro Sovereign – Chen Xuanzong frowned sightly.

  Practitioner Ziteng was the Roving Jade Heaven’s old Grand Master – the Vine Sovereign. Based on seniority alone, she was the one with the highest seniority within the Roving Jade Heavens.

  The Roving Jade Seven that established the Roving Jade Heavens in the past were all people born after the Great Calamity and were the rising experts of Daoism.

  Only the Vine Sovereign was a senior expert that lived even before the Great Calamity, just like the Earthly Sovereign – Jiang Shen, the Exalted Solar Luminary – Gao Han, and the others.

  Only, she was wounded during the establishment of the Roving Jade Heavens, which resulted in her not joining the establishment.

  Jiang Shen gave pointers to Shao Junhuang and the others, which made Jiang Shen their half-master, and they became his half-disciple. On the contrary, more than half of the Roving Jade Seven was the Vine Sovereign’s actual disciples.

  Although the Vine Sovereign would always be in seclusion to tend to her wounds, her influence towards the Roving Jade Heavens was still significant.

  Regarding matters related to the World beyond Worlds, primarily if it were related to the Exalted Gold Luminary – Yan Xintang’s lineage, the Profound Sovereign would mostly object to her master’s ideologies.

  On the contrary, the Profound Sovereign would mostly obey the Vine Sovereign’s opinions on other matters.

  Only, other than making Daoism return to its prime, and the grudges against the heretics, the other thing that the Vine Sovereign brood of was the World beyond Worlds’ Kunlun Mountain’s Jade Capital Crag, which she held a hostile attitude against.

  Upon hearing Yan Zhaoge’s world, the Sword Sovereign – Yue Zhenbei’s expression became serious. He turned his head and looked at Yan Zhaoge.

  “Senior apprentice-uncle Yue, Senior Chen, don’t worry.” Yan Zhaoge smiled, “No matter what the outcome is, the Vine Sovereign wouldn’t make things difficult for me.”

  “Currently, the intensity of the battle between the heretics is in full swing. According to past experiences, since they’re currently holding each other back, it’s much simpler for the Senior Suo, the Incongruence Divine Mother, the Southern Extremity Longevity Emperor, and the North Star Emperor to do what they want.”

  “With that, even though the Pure Lands and the Demon Race might notice us, it’s much more beneficial for us to make a move. We might even receive the protection of the Incongruence Divine Mother and the others.”

  After the war between the two heretic factions had ended, their attention might be shifted towards Yan Zhaoge’s side.

  They might even dispatch large numbers of troops to search for Yan Zhaoge’s Pill Hall cosmos within the void’s outskirts.

  Which was why this was an opportune moment.

  “We can’t let down our guard as well, especially during such a situation. The more beneficial the situation is, the more likely someone that intends to find us would be waiting for us to appear automatically,” said Yan Di.

  Yan Zhaoge nodded, “Exactly.”

  He looked at the Brocade Emperor – Fu Yunchi, “Various people are residing by the Roving Jade Heavens and the World beyond Worlds, waiting for us. They’re waiting for us to come in contact with someone, and would then follow us to find the whereabouts of the Pill Hall.”

  “If it wasn’t for our comprehensive plan and the Roving Jade Heaven’s Profound Sovereign’s appropriate arrangements, we might have been found out long ago,” said Fu Yunchi in agreement.

  One person continually taking action would be attention-grabbing. As such, other than Fu Yunchi, others went out to come in contact with the outside world.

  The more Yan Zhaoge refined the Pill Hall, the better his control over it. Naturally, he would be more stealthy when receiving people of his factions over.

  However, his opponents had never lost their patients. More than a group of people were s
ecretly looking out for them.

  “This Pill Hall gave us a temporary safe environment. However, there are always two sides to everything.” Yan Zhaoge looked at the Purple Divine Pavilion he was currently in, “The people here might get involved in troubles. Too many people are holding malicious intentions towards us solely because of the Pill Hall.”

  “When we truly return to the Dao universe and bring the Roving Jade Heavens away, the commotion caused would be huge.”

  Yan Zhaoge touched his chin as he said, “I think making a diversion, and executing the plan in secret would be a better plan.”

  They would first cause some commotion and attempt to divert the enemy’s attention away. Then, they would quickly bring the Roving Jade Heavens out, leave the Dao universe once more, and camouflage themselves by the void’s boundless outskirts.

  Even if they couldn’t divert all of their enemy’s attention away, even a small portion of them leaving would increase the possibility of Yan Zhaoge’s plan from coming to fruition.

  Yue Zhenbei said slowly, “Let me do it.”

  To prevent the feeling of awkwardness when meeting those from the Roving Jade Heavens, when the Pill Hall absorbed them inside.

  “Zhenbei, you going makes things too obvious. You have the possibility of exposing our plans and arousing suspicions within the hearts of our enemies,” said Chen Xuanzong as he shook his head. “Let me go.”

  During the past few years, Chen Xuanzong had gone out by himself and searched for Jie Mingkong and Chu Lili.

  “Old Man Chen, your situation is the same as Yunsheng. It might be much worse than her,” said Yue Zhenbei. “The Nine Underworlds are searching for you as well.”

  Chen Xuanzong shook his head, “It’s fine. I know the limits.”

  Yue Zhenbei remained silent.

  “I would have to burden you with this task, Senior Chen.” Yan Zhaoge cupped his hands towards Chen Xuanzong, and said to everyone else, “I’ll enter the Roving Jade Heavens with my North Ocean Clone. Even if everything went successfully, I still need some time for preparations.”

  “There might even be a battle. Let us calm down and cultivate with a peaceful mind. When the opportunity arrives, we would be able to prevent any accidents from happening, as long as we have sufficient preparations.”

  Feng Yunsheng, Yan Di, and Nie Jingshen both nodded peacefully, without any flutter in emotions.

  Something vibrated beside Yan Zhaoge, and a tall silhouette appeared. It was the North Ocean Clone.

  The North Ocean Clone bowed towards the Brocade Emperor – Fu Yunchi, “Brocade Emperor, I’d have to burden you for bringing me along with you to the Roving Jade Heavens once more.”

  “No need to be so polite. If you’re ready, then let us depart,” said Fu Yunchi.

  Then, Yan Zhaoge’s North Ocean Clone left the Purple Divine Pavilion along with the Brocade Emperor. They walked outwards and left the Pill Hall’s cosmos.

  The two of them did not immediately return to the Dao universe. Instead, they resided by the void’s boundless outskirts.

  Through the previous agreement, someone would come and lead them to the Dao universe.

  Yan Zhaoge and Chen Xuanzong entered stealth mode and waited patiently.

  After an unknown amount of time had passed, a ray of sword-light shot from afar.

  Upon seeing the sword-light, the two of them sent out a secret signal.

  The sword-light did not slow down at all. Instead, it brought Yan Zhaoge and Chen Xuanzong along with it and continued flying away with lightning speed.

  Within the void’s outskirts, space itself was convoluted, and it was hard to differentiate directions within. The sword-light didn’t even turn around and circularly traversed through the void.

  It stopped for a short period to collect some rare treasures and minerals only available by the void’s outskirts and returned to the Dao universe with a satisfied look.

  Upon entering the Dao universe, the sword-light did not halt its movements. Instead, it continued forward and entered the Roving Jade Heavens.

  The dancing sword-light descended upon a cave manor by a mountain.

  y

  Then, the sword-light finally stopped. When the radiance dissipated, the appearance of an old Daoist who let his hair down loosely without tying his hair appeared.

  This was someone Yan Zhaoge had met once – the Cloud Conquest Emperor.

  The area they were in wasn’t the Cloud Emperor’s cave manor – the Ashen Spirit Valley.

  There were others within the cave manor.

  Other than Gao Xuebo and Long Xueji, who Yan Zhaoge was already familiar with, there was another man present who had the appearance of a thirty to forty years old. The man was handsome, and he had a leisure appearance.

  Although it was the first time meeting each other, Yan Zhaoge had seen his portrait way too many times.

  The Jade Clear lineage’s successor, who was also the Exalted Gold Luminary – Yan Xintang’s junior apprentice-brother, originated from the same sect. That person was the Dragon Spring Emperor who had always resided by the Roving Jade Heavens – Long Xingquan.

  “Senior apprentice-uncle Long, we’ve never gotten the chance to meet each other. Now, we’re finally able to do so. Unfortunately, I’m only able to meet you with my clone. Please forgive me for my rudeness.”

  Yan Zhaoge looked at Long Xingquan and smiled at him.

  Upon seeing Yan Zhaoge’s appearance, Long Xingquan retracted his leisure expression. He smiled as well, and said, “It’s fine. One day, I’ll finally meet both you and your father.”

  He looked at Yan Zhaoge and said emotionally, “You father and son duo are truly outstanding talents. If senior apprentice-brother and junior apprentice-sister Di knew about this, they would be pleased as well.”

  He sighed softly, and hints of sadness appeared in his eyes.

  Gao Xuebo and Long Xueji, who were standing beside him, remained silent as well.

  An intricate expression appeared in the Cloud Conquest Emperor’s eyes as well.

  Naturally, his view towards the Sword God – Yan Xintang, who had oppressed the entire Roving Jade Heavens in the past, was too complex.

  As for the Sword Emperor – Di Qinglian, although they weren’t of the same sect, the Sword Emperor still felt a sense of pity for her.

  Yan Zhaoge looked at the Dragon Spring Emperor, who was standing in front of him.

  This was the first time he had seen the Dragon Spring Emperor in person.

  The Dragon Spring Emperor can also be considered as a mythical figure.

  Some people in the World beyond Worlds held criticisms against the Dragon Spring Emperor and detested him.

  As a Jade Clear successor, he joined the Roving Jade Heavens’ Prime Clear lineage. Others secretly insulted him by calling him a reverse in-law.

  The saying that the yin of the Profound Sovereign was more potent than the yang of the Spring Emperor, and how the female was the one in dominance was everywhere.

  However, those that truly understood the situation were scornful towards such statements.

  Indeed, the Dragon Spring Emperor had lost under the sword of the Profound Sovereign.

  However, how many people were as strong as the Profound Sovereign?

  The newer generation only remembered that the Dragon Spring Emperor had lost under the Profound Sovereign’s sword. Not many recognized the fact that Long Xingquan had dominated the sword cultivators of the Roving Jade Heavens. When fighting based on sword arts alone, he won every battle until he fought against the Profound Sovereign.

  The Cloud Conquest Emperor beside Yan Zhaoge, and the Lofty Emperor – Zhang Buxu, who had yet left the Roving Jade Heavens during that time, were all defeated by the Dragon Spring Emperor’s sword.

  Among those of the same realm as the Dragon Spring Emperor, even including the New Kunlun Nine Luminaries, only a few had the confidence to wi
n against the Dragon Spring Emperor.

  “Senior apprentice-granduncle Long, may I meet the Profound Sovereign now?”

  Yan Zhaoge asked after greeting Long Xingquan, the Cloud Conquest Emperor, Long Xueji, and Gao Xuebo.

  “Qingxuan is currently inside the Vine Sovereign’s cave manor,” said the Dragon Spring Emperor.

  The Cloud Conquest Emperor remained silent, while Gao Xuebo frowned slightly.

  Long Xueji did not hide anything, and said blatantly, “The old Grand Master is objecting against the plan. My mother is trying to convince her.”

  “Zhaoge and Daoist Fu follow me.” The Dragon Spring Emperor walked out of the cave manor and waved his hand while walking, “Qingxuan and Vine Sovereign are already aware of your arrival. They mentioned that you should go to where they are upon reaching the Roving Jade Heavens.”

  Yan Zhaoge and Fu Yunchi nodded, “As guests, we shall follow the host’s wish.”

  They traversed through the Green Duckweed Mountain and finally reached the bottom of the main peak.

  This was the location of the Vine Sovereign – Li Ying’s cave manor.

  A male servant was guarding by the door and was obviously given some orders beforehand. Upon seeing the arrival of Yan Zhaoge’s group, he opened the door and welcomed them.

  Layers of peerlessly sharp spirit qi were flowing around within the Green Duckweed Mountain. The shapeless spirit qi was just like invisible blades, continuously slicing apart everything in the air.

  The spirit qi became much denser at the main peak.

  Upon entering the cave manor, two ladies turned their heads simultaneously and looked towards Yan Zhaoge’s group.

  There was an old woman that looked to be around sixty years old sitting by the main seat. Despite her old age, she seemed to have retained her beautiful and delicate appearance during her youth. Her silver hair was combed meticulously, and dim silver lights seemed to be flickering within.

  Every time a light flickered by her hair, lightning seemed to have struck down from the sky, and a treasured sword seemed to have been unsheathed.

  Her gaze was exceptionally sharp, as if wherever her gaze passed through, space itself would be sliced apart.
