“Thunderstorm, you are quite impressive, and I like you very much! Once we reach the Upper Realm, follow me directly and be my assistant. Your experience in the Soul World will surely help me. After all, I am not good at strategy, and when the war begins, it will be a great opportunity for us to achieve our goals!” The Thunder God said with a smile.
“Thank you, my lord. I am grateful for your guidance,” Thunderstorm replied joyfully.
“It’s nothing,” the Thunder God paused before continuing, “Thunderstorm, how many people do you plan to bring to the Upper Realm?”
“I’m not sure, so I would appreciate your guidance, my lord,” Thunderstorm replied respectfully.
The Thunder God explained, “As long as they are from the Soul Realm or above, they are qualified to go to the Upper Realm. It doesn’t matter what race they belong to. The previous restrictions were merely meant to intimidate; in reality, anyone who has reached the Soul Realm from any of the thousands of lower realms governed by the Soul World can go to the Upper Realm if they have melted their Martial Soul with their Three Souls and Seven Spirits.”
“My lord, then how many do you think would be appropriate for me to take with me?”
“That depends on the situation. If you draw too many people away and lose control of this Spatial Plane for the Thunder Clan, it would be disastrous for you. We need to deal with the Soul Palace first. If we can eliminate them, then you can bring more people to the Upper Realm and join my team.”
“Understood. I will follow your instructions closely.”
……
Meanwhile, Ji Pokong and four high-level experts from the Soul Realm soared across the ocean and arrived in the Central Domain.
“Sea Demon Emperor, Divine Beast Blood is incredibly rare. I assume that both the Soul Clan and Thunder Clan have already summoned their Upper Realm envoys? If a battle breaks out, we won’t have the advantage,” one elder said to Ji Pokong.
Ji Pokong nodded and replied, “I am well aware of that. However, this world is under the jurisdiction of the Thunder Clan. If we summon anyone from the Upper Realm, it would be a violation of rules. If we get caught by the Thunder Clan, it would be difficult to explain ourselves to those in the Upper Realm.”
“Are we just going to watch as the Soul Clan and Thunder Clan seize those resources? Without an envoy from the Upper Realm, we don’t even have the right to intervene.”
“Who says we don’t? Although an envoy from the Upper Realm hasn’t come personally, they sent me a Heart of the Sea Soul. When battle commences, I can use this Heart of the Sea Soul to ensure that within three hours, my strength won’t be any weaker than those envoys from the Upper Realm. Once we seize what we need, we’ll leave immediately without delay. In the vast ocean, it will be our territory.”
Ji Pokong wore a cold smile on his face. The Soul Clan, Thunder Clan, Sea Tribe—only the Fire Tribe and Dark Tribe were missing. Once the five major races of the Upper Realm gathered in the Soul World, it would be a sight to behold.
"As long as I perform well, my status in the Upper Realm will not be low. Thunderstorm, Soul Palace, are you ready?" Ji Pokong thought to himself.
In truth, both Ji Pokong and Thunderstorm were already well aware of everything regarding the Upper Realm. The core high-ranking members of the Fire Sect, who were from the Thunder Clan, as well as the upper echelons of the Sea Tribe, all knew about the happenings in the Upper Realm. Their previous displays of anxiety and reluctance were merely for show.
One thing was certain: Ji Pokong and Thunderstorm did not dare to leave the Soul World for the Upper Realm easily because of the Soul Palace!
The Soul Palace was too powerful. As long as the Soul Palace remained unbroken or had not been significantly weakened, they would not dare to take that step.
While Ji Pokong and his companions were still on their way, Peach Blossom Sect had already become lively. Dozens of Formation Masters who lived near Peach Blossom Sect had arrived early. Many spectators who came to watch also set up camp around Peach Blossom Sect and Cang Mountain, waiting for the final auction.
Dragon Blood, Xuan Gui Blood, and Fire Phoenix blood were extremely rare—practically treasures that appeared only once in a millennium, existing only in legends. If it weren't for Bai Xiaosheng spreading the news and vouching for their existence, people from Central Domain would certainly not believe it; after all, it sounded too fantastical.
Even with Bai Xiaosheng's endorsement, many people expressed skepticism and arrived at Cang Mountain with doubts.
The number of people stationed around Cang Mountain continued to grow, with some firmly believing while many others remained doubtful.
"Hey, what exactly is this Cloud Spirit Sect of Peach Blossom Sect? Their recent performance has been incredibly fierce; they've surpassed all Ninth-Rank Powers in Central Domain."
"I heard that the main force of Peach Blossom Sect came from the Eastern Region. I never expected such an extraordinary Cloud Spirit Sect could emerge from such a backward place."
"Exactly! The reputation of Peach Blossom Sect is too great. That Wei Chen wiped out Jiaoleimen with a few disciples in Maguan City; his strength is astonishing."
"The strongest must be that formidable individual who split a mountain with a single sword strike at Daxing Gate, right?"
"Almost the same. According to Bai Xiaosheng, during the time of Maguan City, a powerful figure emerged, comparable to the strength of the Thunder Sovereign."
"If that's the case, even though the Peach Blossom Sect may not have strong overall power and has few members, with the presence of those two powerful figures, their status in the Central Domain is likely only second to the Fire Sect."
"That's for sure. In today's Ninth-Rank Powers, who would dare challenge the Peach Blossom Sect? The previous Daxing Gate has now become a joke. The other four Eighth-Rank Forces in the Chaos Realm are even more ridiculous; haven't you seen how they don't dare to show their faces lately?"
"They deserve it. Who told them to be so rampant? The atmosphere in the Central Domain is bad, and the Chaos Realm is the worst place. This chaotic place has no order at all. I actually hope the Peach Blossom Sect can unify the Chaos Realm and manage this disorderly area properly; it's simply unbearable for the common people."
"Those matters are irrelevant to us; we are just here to see the world. Dragon Blood, Xuan Gui Blood, Phoenix Blood—aren't they all treasures? Just thinking about them makes my mouth water."
"Whether they really exist is still uncertain."
"Can someone of Bai Xiaosheng's status lie? With Wei Chen from the Peach Blossom Sect having a relationship with the Thunder Sovereign, do you think Wei Chen would dare to fabricate something? The first to cut ties with him would probably be the Thunder Sovereign himself."
"That's true. The Thunder Sovereign has always been righteous; he definitely wouldn't allow his friends to engage in deceptive practices."
"Sigh, no matter what, the rise of the Peach Blossom Sect has been too rapid. Their various actions are nothing short of legendary."
"I wonder how Wei Chen got to know the Thunder Sovereign. For someone of the Thunder Sovereign's stature to leave Fire City and personally attend a Cloud Spirit Sect celebration is simply unbelievable."
"I've received some news; it's rumored that the Thunder Sovereign and Wei Chen met on Penglai Island in the Sea Tribe."
"Ah? That's quite mysterious! Penglai Island?"
"Could it be that Wei Chen is from the Sea Tribe? That seems impossible."
"Absolutely impossible. Wei Chen must be human; there's no way he could be a lackey of the Sea Tribe."
In the Central Domain, the human race was not openly hostile towards the Sea Tribe, but there was no friendliness either.
Around Cang Mountain, tents were pitched everywhere, and even in the air, numerous Warships were docked. Many people rested on the Warships, waiting for the final auction.
The situation was tense; those who arrived first had the advantage, while later arrivals found no space.
The ground and air were crowded with layers of people.
As a result, newcomers could only go higher up or find places farther away from Cang Mountain.
However, one rule set by the Peach Blossom Sect was strictly observed by everyone.
That was the prohibition against anyone setting up camp within ten miles of Cang Mountain.
No one dared to break that rule. Even in the area extending from ten to twenty miles away, there was no space left, and no faction or foolish individual took the lead in violating it.
The rules of Cang Mountain and those of the Peach Blossom Sect were not to be trifled with, especially when the Peach Blossom Sect was at its peak; defying them would be an incredibly foolish act.
Musa had been very busy lately. He was responsible for many tasks: coordinating the work of Formation Masters, arranging for craftsmen to work overtime, and managing accommodations and meals for everyone at the top of Cang Mountain—all of it fell on his shoulders.
Originally, Mu Yang and Ginger Tooth planned to help him, but a single remark from Wei Chen made them abandon that idea entirely.
Wei Chen said, "Musa is about to become the leader of the Peach Blossom Sect. This is merely a preliminary training for him; no one can assist."
Wei Chen's words gradually spread throughout the Peach Blossom Sect, reaching even those gathered nearby.
Wei Chen himself did not want to take on the role of leader but instead intended for someone lacking strength, prestige, and connections to assume it? What kind of game was this?
No one could quite figure out what Wei Chen was really planning, but the people of the Peach Blossom Sect had a good idea. The Three Elders certainly knew that Wei Chen would leave and could not become the sect leader. Ginger Tooth, along with Jiang Langying, Mu Qingyan, and Mu Yang, believed that Wei Chen was deeply loyal and had destroyed the Ancient Spirit Academy to strengthen the Peach Blossom Sect for the Mu Family.
Due to the fact that Wei Chen had many women, Jiang Langying, who had some grievances against him, set aside her dissatisfaction because of this matter. It was simply because Wei Chen had shown boundless kindness to the Mu Family.
As the saying goes, a mother-in-law either grows fonder of her son-in-law or becomes increasingly displeased. There was no doubt that Jiang Langying was growing fonder of Wei Chen. In the Soul World, it was quite normal for men to have multiple wives and concubines.
Jiang Langying's only concern was who Wei Chen would choose as his main wife and who would be relegated to a secondary position.
She felt that her daughter Mu Qingyan could not compare to Weirou, as Weirou had grown up alongside Wei Chen. Compared to Snow Cicada, she also fell short because Snow Cicada had gained significant favor from Han Mang and had made substantial contributions in the crucial formation positions within the Peach Blossom Sect. In the future, she could inherit Han Mang's position as the formation elder. Even against Ji Mei, she felt inadequate; Ji Mei was the Sea Princess, after all. Ji Mei's father was the Sea Demon Emperor of the Sea Tribe, commanding billions of Sea Tribe members.
When compared to Ni Junlin, it seemed even more unfavorable; Ni Junlin was Wei Chen's personal bodyguard and possessed formidable strength.
So where would Mu Qingyan stand when it came time for marriage?
Moreover, considering Wei Chen's compensation to the Mu Family by making Musa the sect leader, there might also be an intention to compensate Mu Qingyan.
After weighing all these calculations, Jiang Langying felt troubled. She sensed that her daughter was not receiving enough attention from Wei Chen.
It wasn't that Jiang Langying was being mercenary; rather, circumstances forced her hand. As Mu Qingyan's mother, she had to consider these matters.
After much worry and deliberation, Jiang Langying resolved that she could not let things continue like this; she needed to encourage Mu Qingyan to take initiative!
