Chapter 757: Chapter 398: Meeting the Seductive Witch_2

“`

Xu Yan evaluated his current strength. The combination of Physiognomy and the Yin Yang Undying Sword formed a powerful defense, making it so that ordinary Immortal Heavenly Venerables could not harm him.

“However, if I encounter a strong Immortal Heavenly Venerable like Emperor Da Yue, I would still be crushed with one strike, but against weaker Immortal Heavenly Venerables like Sui Hongwu or Feng Yan, there’s nothing to fear.”

Xu Yan suddenly felt full of confidence.

Under the Immortal Heavenly Venerable, he was invincible.

This was just the entry level of the Physiognomy Realm.

Even in the Nine Mountain Realm, there were only a few strong Immortal Heavenly Venerables like Emperor Da Yue.

Of course, those Immortal Heavenly Venerables who were weaker than Emperor Da Yue but stronger than Feng Yan were still very dangerous for Xu Yan.

But as his realm reached this step, even if he was not a match, he truly had the confidence to escape.

“When I reach the Perfection of the Physiognomy Realm, even an Immortal Heavenly Venerable like Emperor Da Yue won’t be able to harm me.”

Emperor Da Yue, although a strong figure among Immortal Heavenly Venerables, was certainly not the top-notch; even Emperor Da Yue himself understood this.

“Once I enter the Void-breaking Realm, Immortal Heavenly Venerables truly won’t be able to threaten me.”

Only by breaking through to the Void-breaking Realm could he truly ignore the threats of Immortal Heavenly Venerables.

The Power of Void-breaking in the Void-breaking Realm pierced through the spaces of heaven and earth, meaning it could precisely break the power of Immortal Heavenly Venerables integrated with the Domain Power.

It was like restraining the Immortal Heavenly Venerables, wielding a power of their own domain.

“The Seductive Witch is at the Thousand Layered Mountain. Should I go take a look? With my current strength, I should be able to handle it.”

Xu Yan pondered for a moment and decided to go check out the situation at the Thousand Layered Mountain.

However, before heading to the Thousand Layered Mountain, Xu Yan sent a message to Wan Tianlin, inquiring about the progress of the investigation into the mastermind.

To Xu Yan’s surprise, even the Wan Family hadn’t found out who was behind the scenes.

“Hiding quite deeply, huh? Now that I’ve shown myself, let’s see if you’ll continue to target me.”

Xu Yan chuckled inwardly.

As long as they came targeting him, it would be easy to deal with. He would use the Destiny of the Heavenly Intent to control the opponent’s Divine Soul Consciousness, naturally discovering the forces behind them.

“However, to control Martial Artists in the later stages and at the peak of the True King Heavenly Venerable, one needs to weaken them first.”

Xu Yan pondered.

Even though he had broken through to the Physiognomy Realm and greatly increased the power of the Destiny of the Heavenly Intent, it was still challenging to hold Martial Artists at the later and peak stages of True King Heavenly Venerable, as they could easily break free from its control.

“Though the Divine Skill of Destiny of the Heavenly Intent isn’t ordinary, my cultivation in it isn’t deep enough. I still need to spend some time enhancing this Divine Skill.”

Controlling the Divine Soul and Consciousness involved Divine Skills that were inherently difficult to cross realms to control.

“If Fifth Junior Brother mastered the Extreme Soul Martial Arts, with his Extreme Soul Power, using such Divine Skills would be much more formidable!”

Xu Yan thought of Jiang Buping, who cultivated Extreme Soul Martial Arts, the ultimate path concerning the Divine Soul. Naturally, he was stronger in aspects related to Divine Skills and Dharma concerning the Divine Soul.

“Extreme Soul Martial Arts…”

Xu Yan mused, pondering whether he could also reference the Extreme Soul Martial Arts Method to transform his Primordial Spirit, making it more pure.

If the Primordial Spirit truly achieved purity and flawlessness, impervious to a thousand evils, it would undoubtedly be yet another transformation.

Xu Yan had some epiphanies in his heart.

“Have you not found the person yet?”

At the border between Dahai Mountain and Thousand Layered Mountain, two True Kings met.

“No, haven’t found him!”

The respondent looked worried.

That scoundrel Xu Yan, he truly knew how to hide. Once he disappeared, he couldn’t be found at all.

If they couldn’t find him, how could they complete their mission?

How could they lure him into the Heavenly Grotto?

To lure Xu Yan to the Heavenly Grotto, they purposely prepared a Seven Wonders Divine Flower.

That was a genuine treasure of heaven and earth; not to mention the True King Heavenly Venerable, even the Immortal Heavenly Venerable would be envious and make a move to snatch it.

If they couldn’t lure Xu Yan to the Heavenly Grotto, they would be deemed useless in their mission execution. It wasn’t just a matter of reward—they might die without a proper burial!

“Should we release the news of the treasure’s whereabouts? If Xu Yan finds out, he will definitely enter the Heavenly Grotto.”

“What a miraculous treasure it is! Once the news is out, even Immortal Heavenly Venerables will enter; how will the plan proceed?”

The two True Kings were worried.

Suddenly, one of the True Kings’s eyes brightened, “Is that Xu Yan?”

“Indeed, it is. It seems he’s heading towards the Thousand Layered Mountain. Hurry, let’s not let him see any clues; since he’s appeared, it’ll be easier!”

The two True Kings were overjoyed.

Appearing nonchalant, as if they were merely passing by, the True King Heavenly Venerables continued their low conversation while subtly moving forward.

“In the Witch Demon Heavenly Grotto, there appears to be a heavenly treasure. I wonder if it’s true?”

“It’s indeed the case, it’s rumored to be a Seven Wonders Divine Flower. It’s a kind of Domain Divine Object that enhances the Divine Soul, purifies the root of Martial Arts, calms the mind, and helps one comprehend the mysteries of Martial Arts. Even the Immortal Heavenly Venerable would be envious.”

“Such a divine object could be our opportunity to break through to the Immortal Heavenly Venerable.”

“Exactly, this matter is secretive and cannot be leaked. This Heavenly Grotto is a small Heavenly Grotto, and not many people pay attention…”

The two True King Heavenly Venerables pretended not to notice Xu Yan’s presence and continued silently forward while speaking in hushed tones.

Unintentionally, they leaked the news of the treasure, the Seven Wonders Divine Flower, in the Witch Demon Heavenly Grotto.

“This Witch Demon Heavenly Grotto at the Thousand Layered Mountain? The Seductive Witch is here?”

Xu Yan moved silently, having already discovered the two True King Heavenly Venerables. He deliberately showed himself slightly, allowing the pair to notice him, wanting to see their reaction.

Unexpectedly, the pair leaked the information of the treasure, trying to lure him to the Heavenly Grotto.

“Seven Wonders Divine Flower…”

Xu Yan was somewhat tempted. This Seven Wonders Divine Flower was obviously something good. Enhancing the Divine Soul was secondary, his real interest was in the flower’s ability to aid the Martial Artist’s comprehension of the mystery of Martial Arts.

Even the Immortal Heavenly Venerable would be tempted, so the grade of the Seven Wonders Divine Flower evidently wasn’t low, and for him at this stage, it was quite beneficial.

The Blood Heart Fruit could, in a short period, make it easier for one to comprehend Cultivation Techniques, and the grade of the Seven Wonders Divine Flower was higher than the Blood Heart Fruit. Perhaps it could truly assist him in comprehending the Domain Martial Arts Law.

“Even if it couldn’t help comprehend the Domain Cultivation Method, it could help straighten out one’s own Martial Arts, perceive one’s own Martial Arts, and even cultivate more powerful Divine Skills…”

Xu Yan was tempted. He followed silently not far from the two True Kings.

The two True Kings, still exchanging whispers, exchanging glances, were unsure if Xu Yan had heard their “secret.”

After all, Xu Yan’s trace was elusive. If not for the coincidence of glimpsing him, they could not have detected his presence.

The two exploited this fact to make Xu Yan believe he hadn’t been noticed and inadvertently hear such secrets.

“Be cautious, don’t let anyone eavesdrop.”

At the end of their conversation, the pair seemed suddenly alert, starting to look around as if guarding against being overheard.

“Don’t worry, unless it’s an Immortal Heavenly Venerable, who could escape our scrutiny?”

“Quite right!”

Secretly, though, they communicated through telepathy, “What about Xu Yan?”

“Didn’t discover him, huh? Could he not have heard our conversation?”

“Impossible. We didn’t notice him, but with Xu Yan’s strength, he definitely must have noticed us.”

The two felt a bit uneasy. What if Xu Yan didn’t hear their secret?

Or, worse, was he not tempted by it?

The two True King Heavenly Venerables were worried but dared not stop, only continuing forward to avoid Xu Yan discovering any flaw.

“Hey, why do I feel something’s off?”

Suddenly, one of the True King Heavenly Venerables spoke, startled.

Unexplainedly, he felt as if he had stepped into a new world.

“Oh no!”

Abruptly, his expression changed.

But it was too late. As ripples surged, a Heaven and Earth Law surrounded him, with Golden Dragons coiling, the mountains and rivers obscured him.

And at that very moment, a hand pressed down on his head.

Buzz!

In a daze, his Divine Soul wavered, and the will of destiny was irresistible.

Xu Yan finally decided to take action. Though the Seductive Witch was quite a threat, the Seven Wonders Divine Flower was too rare, and most likely, it was a divine object from beyond the world.

Since the Seductive Witch intended to give it to him, how could he not take it?

He must go face the Seductive Witch!

However, prior to that, he needed to make some preparations, like controlling the two True King Heavenly Venerables.

The strength of a late-stage True King Heavenly Venerable was not weak. To control them required some methods.

Xu Yan merged the Mountain and River Sword Intent into the surroundings, and at the moment the two True King Heavenly Venerables stepped in, he suddenly made his move, catching them by surprise.

In an instant, Xu Yan used the Destiny of the Heavenly Intent to control one of the True King Heavenly Venerables, while the other, sensing something wrong, roared angrily, his momentum surging as he attempted to break free from the confines of the Mountain and River Sword Intent.
