Having many children brings many blessings; the struggle for power begins with marriage.

Northern Region, Nine Heavens Academy.

Tianji Palace.

Xuan Qingyun, dressed in a long purple brocade dress, sat on the phoenix throne made of countless purple immortal crystals on the high platform of the palace.

She coldly swept her gaze across the immortals in the hall. As soon as her gaze swept over them, the immortals in the hall broke out in a cold sweat, and their bodies trembled slightly.

The atmosphere in the main hall was incredibly heavy and oppressive. No one dared to breathe, and everyone was waiting for Xuan Qingyun to speak.

After an unknown amount of time, Xuan Qingyun spoke in a cold and emotionless voice: "You immortal sects really have bad memories. You just formed an alliance to attack the Nine Heavens Academy, and now, not long after, you're already coming to me to form an alliance."

"What, in your eyes, am I the kind of person who is easy to talk to?"

Upon hearing Xuan Qingyun's words, the immortals present were immediately drenched in sweat, beads of sweat dripping from their foreheads. The oppressive aura emanating from Xuan Qingyun made it difficult for them to breathe, and they seriously suspected that Xuan Qingyun had recovered his cultivation as an immortal emperor.

Now they are afraid that Xuan Qingyun will suddenly attack them. If Xuan Qingyun attacks them at this time, they will probably be powerless to fight back.

This is the headquarters of the Nine Heavens Academy. Putting aside whether Xuan Qingyun has recovered her Immortal Emperor cultivation, even if she hasn't, the sheer number of Immortal Venerable-level Heavenly Demons combined would be enough to annihilate them.

At this moment, the Immortal Venerable of Qingyun Academy stepped forward with a stiff upper lip and said, "Senior, the strange creature is immortal. Once it breaks through the seal, the entire Tianyan Immortal Domain will suffer annihilation."

"Your power originates from the people of the Heavenly Evolution Immortal Realm. If the strange creatures were to devour all the people of the Heavenly Evolution Immortal Realm, your strength would decline drastically. Moreover, these strange creatures are extraterrestrial beings whose goal is to conquer the entire Heavenly Evolution Immortal Realm. Even if you do not wish to be their enemy, they will still attack the Nine Heavens Academy..."

The more the immortal from Qingyun Academy spoke, the more sweat poured down his body. In no time, his clothes were soaked, but even in this situation, he dared not use his immortal power to clean the sweat off his body.

Just then, the Heavenly Demon Power within Xuan Qingyun suddenly erupted, and a huge, twisted skull appeared behind Xuan Qingyun. The terrifying pressure instantly forced the Immortal Venerable who had just spoken to the ground.

The immortal venerable one hurriedly said, "Senior...please forgive me..."

Xuan Qingyun said expressionlessly, "Don't mistake me for one of your rabble. Just because you can't handle an enemy doesn't mean I can't handle one either."

Just when the immortals present thought their alliance was about to fail, the pressure emanating from Xuan Qingyun suddenly dissipated. As the pressure disappeared, the immortals present immediately felt incredibly relaxed.

Xuan Qingyun continued, "Although I disdain to form an alliance with you, the strange creatures are indeed enemies to me. Go back and tell your respective forces that if the strange creatures really invade the Tianyan Immortal Realm, I will not stand idly by."

"After all, the Heavenly Evolution Immortal Realm belongs to me."

This……

The immortals looked at each other, then bowed in unison and said, "Thank you, senior!"

Xuan Qingyun raised her jade-like hand and waved it, then said, "Get lost!"

As soon as Xuan Qingyun finished speaking, the envoys sent by various forces to form an alliance were expelled from the hall by a terrifying force. By the time everyone came to their senses, they had already been driven out of the Northern Region.

The group looked at each other, all drenched in sweat. They quickly used their immortal power to evaporate the sweat, then transformed into streaks of light and flew off towards their respective immortal sects without looking back.

Although they had not completed their mission of forming an alliance with the Nine Heavens Academy, Xuan Qingyun's words were still good news for them. As long as Xuan Qingyun remained on the side of the Heavenly Evolution Immortal Realm, they still had some hope when the strange army arrived.

Although once Xuan Qingyun recovers his strength, the Heavenly Evolution Immortal Realm will likely be under his rule again, even that is better than being killed by some strange creature. ...

Qingyun Academy.

Wan Jie Peak.

The Immortal Venerable of Myriad Tribulations sat in the pavilion on the mountain peak, quietly sipping tea. Just then, a streak of light flew from afar and quickly landed outside the pavilion.

Upon seeing that it was Immortal Venerable Lingxu who had returned, Immortal Venerable Wanjie immediately asked, "How did things go?"

Immortal Venerable Lingxu immediately said, "Dean, Immortal Venerable Wuya has been sealed, but the strange creature that transformed Immortal Venerable Wuya into the strange creature has not yet been found; it has not appeared."

Upon hearing this, Immortal Venerable Wan Jie thought for a moment, and then asked, "Was it because Immortal Venerable Wuya that he was attracted out by something special about Lu Chen?"

The Immortal Venerable of Myriad Tribulations was very curious about what could possibly be so important to a strange creature.

Upon hearing the question from the Myriad Tribulations Immortal Venerable, the Lingxu Immortal Venerable was overjoyed. He had been worried about how to persuade the Myriad Tribulations Immortal Venerable, but since the Immortal Venerable had asked, things would be much easier.

Immortal Venerable Lingxu then said, "Lu Chen obtained many opportunities in the Chaos Sea. The reason we were able to seal Immortal Venerable Wuya this time is because of the Saint-level sealing formation that Lu Chen obtained from the Chaos Sea."

"If Lu Chen hadn't used the Saint-level sealing formation at the last moment, we wouldn't have been able to seal Immortal Venerable Wuya at all, and we might even have been severely injured by him."

"The reason why Immortal Venerable Wuya is wary of Lu Chen is likely because he has discovered that Lu Chen brought out many things from the Chaos Sea that can suppress their strange creatures, so he does not want Lu Chen to live."

Upon hearing Lingxu Immortal Venerable's words, Wanjie Immortal Venerable instantly perked up, "What did you say? A Saint-level sealing formation?"

"Are you sure it's a Saint-level sealing formation?"

Knowing that Immortal Venerable Lingxu was interested, Immortal Venerable Wanjie quickly said, "Dean, it's absolutely true. That formation doesn't need anyone else, nor does it need to be set up in advance. The formation patterns were drawn by Lu Chen on the spot. Most importantly, the pressure emanating from the formation made even us Immortal Veners feel palpitations."

Upon hearing Lingxu Immortal Venerable's words, Wanjie Immortal Venerable fell into deep thought, his expression becoming somewhat serious, as if he were pondering something.

Seeing that the Immortal Venerable of Myriad Tribulations did not speak, the Immortal Venerable of Lingxu also did not continue speaking.

After a while, the Immortal Venerable of Myriad Tribulations asked, "Did Lu Chen teach you that formation?"

Lingxu Immortal Venerable said, "No, we originally wanted Lu Chen to hand over the formation, but he directly self-destructed."

"Self-destruct?" The Immortal Venerable of Myriad Tribulations frowned immediately. He was only asked to hand over the sealing formation, and he was going to self-destruct?

Why does he feel like something's not right?
Immortal Venerable Wan Jie quickly realized that Immortal Venerable Ling Xu and the others probably wanted to search Lu Chen's soul, which led Lu Chen to choose to self-destruct. However, this made things more complicated.

They finally found a formation capable of sealing away the strange creatures, but the person who knew the formation's patterns died.

Seeing the worry in the eyes of the Myriad Tribulations Immortal Venerable, Lingxu Immortal Venerable quickly said, "Dean, although Lu Chen self-destructed, that was only his clone. Lu Chen is not dead." (End of Chapter)
