Terran Guardian - Chapter 3342

Chapter 3323: The Heavenly Demon Fairy City where powerful people gather

a Place Where Powerful Beings Gather. Within a certain immortal palace within the immortal city,

Chi Wuwang, as if sensing something, gazed through the void, taking in the scene within the city. Their

eyes met.

Sword energy hummed.

For a moment,

Chi Wuwang withdrew his gaze, his expression serious.

“Is this the Lord of the Heavenly Demon Sacred Land?”

Although this was his first encounter with the Heavenly Demon Saint Lord, he had heard of his fame countless times since entering the Heavenly Star Region. He

had even seen the footage of their battle at the Nine Mountains Immortal Court.

It was undeniable.

In Chi Wuwang’s eyes,

the Heavenly Demon Saint Lord was indeed formidable, rivaling the mighty ones listed on the Immortal Emperor Monument, perhaps even ranking near the top.

At least,

if it were him,

Chi Wuwang wouldn’t be so sure he could slay the two Emperors of the Nine Mountains Immortal Court so easily.

The glance they exchanged across the air only made him realize the sheer power of this supremely powerful being, renowned throughout the Heavenly Star Region.

Even without a true exchange, Chi Wuwang could sense a vague sense of threat.

However,

with so many powerful individuals within Tianyao Immortal City,

one more Heavenly Demon Saint Lord wouldn’t make much difference, and one less wouldn’t make much either. Chi Wuwang saw no such thing as a bad thing.

On the contrary ,

the news of the Immortal Elixir was currently resonating widely.

The more powerful individuals there were, the more muddied the waters, and thus, his chances of obtaining the elixir would only increase.

Elsewhere,

within the immortal abode belonging to the ancient Xiang family,

a young man also gazed towards Tianyao Immortal City, his lips curled up, a fleeting cold glint in his stark black and white eyes.

“The Heavenly Demon Saint Lord… this person is no ordinary person. Although he hasn’t reached the Immortal Emperor Monument, his strength is remarkable!”

“Rumors spread throughout the world that this Heavenly Demon Saint Lord’s strength rivals those at the top of the Immortal Emperor Monument. Originally, I thought this child had already reached the pinnacle of the Immortal Emperor.

But now, it seems, that’s not the case!”

A strange glint flickered in Xiang Nian’s eyes.

Hearing this,

the young man looked slightly startled.

“Are you saying, Old Ancestor, that this child hasn’t yet reached the pinnacle of the Immortal Emperor?”

“Indeed, his aura embodies the essence of heaven and earth, and exudes a burning intensity of extreme yang. As expected, it’s based on the universe. Now, simply opening up a slice of the Extreme Yang Universe, he’s entered the latter stages of the Immortal Emperor.”

Xiang Nian nodded.

With his Semi-Saint cultivation, seeing through the true intentions of an Immortal Emperor was naturally a simple task.

Hearing this,

the young man’s expression faded a bit, becoming more solemn.

“It seems the world has underestimated this Heavenly Demon Saint!”

“Rumors spread that this child is the reincarnation of an ancient sage or even more powerful than a sage. Now it seems to be true.

Young Master, don’t worry. How can a cultivator who has reached this point thanks to the legacy of his past lives compare to you?

Among those of the same realm, the Overlord Immortal Body is unmatched!”

“Back then, our ancient Xiang family’s ancestor used the Overlord Immortal Body to conquer all and ultimately reach the supreme realm.

Young Master, you will surely emulate our ancestor’s style

one day!” Xiang Nian smiled as he looked at the young man.

The person before him was the Xiang family’s Qilin child, born a million years ago. His birth caused a strange phenomenon in heaven and earth. He possessed the purest Overlord bloodline and the Overlord Immortal Body.

His very attack alarmed the entire Xiang family, and even the long-unseen sage ancestor appeared and bestowed upon him the name “King.

” The name Xiang Wang!

It carried the honor of the entire ancient Xiang family.

Indeed, it was so.

King Xiang lived up to the prestige of his Overlord bloodline and innate Overlord Immortal Body. In just a million years, he had already reached the late stage of the Immortal Emperor realm.

His strength rivaled those etched on the Immortal Emperor Monument.

If he ever reached the pinnacle of the Immortal Emperor realm, claiming the top spot on the Immortal Emperor Monument would be no problem.

This time, with

the emergence of the Immortal Elixir ,

King Xiang had insisted on coming.

Xiang Nian, the Xiang family’s semi-saint ancestor, had no choice but to step forward to protect him.

“Heavenly Demon Saint Lord Shen Hong, this reincarnated cultivator is merely a failure. This young master will not take

it seriously.” King Xiang averted his gaze, a hint of arrogance on his face.

As the young master of the ancient Xiang family, a peerless genius, he possessed a certain arrogance.

…

With the appearance of Shen Changqing, many powerful figures within Heavenly Demon Immortal City sensed his presence, further darkening the already solemn atmosphere within.

At this moment,

within the City Lord’s Immortal Palace,

Shen Changqing appeared.

Yan Huan, Luohou, and other demon gods all came to pay their respects.

Shen Changqing waved his hand, dismissing the numerous cultivators, leaving only Luohou.

“Holy Lord!”

“How many forces have arrived at Heavenly Demon Immortal City now?”

“There are many, both large and small, but the most representative are the supreme powers of Shenfeng Province, such as the Shenyang Immortal Court and the Taiyi Holy Land. They

also come from other immortal states, such as the Chiyun Sword Sect of Canglan Province’s Canglan Immortal Realm and the Taigu Xiang Family of Yunjin Province’s Yunxiao Region.

I suspect Changsheng may be behind this!”

Luohou, with a serious expression, faithfully recounted the intelligence he had gathered.

He had endured immense pressure in defending Heavenly Demon Immortal City for decades.

There was no other way.

More and more forces were arriving,

and the powerful were countless.

A mere Immortal Emperor like himself, if it weren’t for the support of the Heavenly Demon Holy Land, wouldn’t even dare to breathe loudly.

Even so, Luohou proceeded with caution.

Shen Changqing’s arrival undoubtedly relieved his pressure.

“So, the Immortal Elixir has attracted quite a few forces!”

Shen Changqing nodded.

He had sensed numerous powerful auras the moment he entered the Celestial Demon City.

He had only been surprised by the sheer number of forces arriving. As for what

the Demon God Rāhu had said about the possibility of immortals behind the scenes, that wasn’t surprising.

After all, with so many forces arriving, it was perfectly normal for some immortals to arrive upon hearing the news.   While Shen Changqing was slightly surprised by

this situation , that was all.   With the backup provided by Jiuye, he had the confidence to deal with any Semi-Saint.   Although Shen Changqing wasn’t sure of the true limit of Jiuye’s sword energy, the instantaneous   destruction of the Xuanwu Venerable, who had reached the Eight Tribulations level, at first sight proved that the sword’s power was undoubtedly no less than that of a Saint.   Even a full-strength attack from a Nine Tribulations Semi-Saint wouldn’t be enough to instantly kill an Eight Tribulations Semi-Saint.   The sword energy emanating from Shen Changqing was personally inflicted by Jiuye, and it had even drawn divine punishment, so its power was undoubtedly considerable.   With such a trump card, Shen Changqing was confident in facing Changsheng.   ”The Immortal Elixir auction will begin in three years. From now on, more and more powerful experts will arrive. As long as they don’t disrupt the order of the Immortal City, there’s no need to worry too much about other things,”   Shen Changqing said calmly.   The Demon God Luohou naturally had no objection   to this .   …   In the following period,   Shen Changqing was stationed in Tianyao Immortal City.   As he had predicted, as the auction approached, more and more powerful experts arrived.   During this period,   Shen Changqing also visited the Zhutian Chamber of Commerce.   After nearly a hundred years of development, the Zhutian Chamber of Commerce has become a well-known figure in Tianyao Immortal City.   After all, the resources poured in by tens of millions of high-grade immortal stones are no joke. With   so many resources,   even if an ordinary Immortal Emperor force exhausted its resources, it would be difficult to find a million high-grade immortal stones.   The arrival of such a large number of immortal stones in the hands of these forces is enough to greatly increase their strength and foundation.   Even a sect is in such a state, let alone a chamber of commerce.   Therefore.   The Zhutian Chamber of Commerce has naturally grown in prominence over the years.   However,   compared to the top chambers of commerce, there’s still no comparison.   After all, the difference in foundation between the two is profound.   Not to mention chambers of commerce like Tongtian Pavilion, which span the entire state, even other chambers of commerce lag far behind.   ”Thanks to the numerous immortal stone resources bestowed upon us by the Venerable, the Chamber of Commerce is now on the right track. We’ve held over a dozen auctions, and the response has been positive.   However, most cultivators still prioritize the larger chambers of commerce.   Furthermore, as the Zhutian Chamber of Commerce’s reputation has grown, other chambers of commerce have been putting some form of pressure on us. This pressure on product prices has slowed the Chamber of Commerce’s growth!”   Inside the Zhutian Chamber of Commerce, Futian reported the recent events truthfully and produced all the account books from the past few years.   A quick glance revealed that the Zhutian Chamber of Commerce had amassed thousands of high-grade immortal stones in less than a hundred years.   However,   Shen Changqing quickly felt relieved.   If a newly established chamber of commerce could generate this much revenue in less than a century, it would naturally be cause for celebration.   However   , the Zhutian Chamber of Commerce was different.   While it may appear to be a new chamber of commerce, it actually had the backing of the entire Heavenly Demon Holy Land. With tens of millions of immortal stones and resources invested, this meager income was nothing to write home about.   After all, even with the current rate of return, it would take quite some time to recoup the investment of five million high-grade immortal stones.   Not to mention the store costs and city taxes that must be factored in.   If the cost of goods and other costs and taxes were deducted, the Zhutian Chamber of Commerce’s net profit over the years would be around a hundred high-grade immortal stones at best.   This result is merely average, nothing to fault, but equally little to praise.   ”It’s normal for the Chamber of Commerce to suppress you, but as for normal competition, they can leave it to them. You have the support of the Heavenly Demon Holy Land behind you, and the other big chambers of commerce in the Heavenly Demon Fairy City are at most just branches, and it is difficult for them to invest too many resources.   As for those small chambers of commerce, there is no need to worry about them.   What you have to do now is to spread the reputation of the Zhutian Chamber of Commerce, accumulate some foundation, and then slowly expand to other fairy realms.   These things cannot be rushed, so just take it step by step.   In addition, many powerful forces have arrived for the matter of the Immortal Medicine. If the Chamber of Commerce can seize this opportunity, it can also avoid some detours!”   Shen Changqing said.
