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

The forest where Lu Chen and his group were located blocked out the strange phenomena in the sky, but they determined their location by sound and quickly left the dense forest.

After they left the forest, they saw the winding ladder to heaven in the sky.

The heavenly ladder emitted a seven-colored light, leading straight to the clouds. The halo of the ladder made people feel very comfortable. Chu Zhengyu stopped and looked at his body in surprise.

Under the light of the Heavenly Ladder, his body was rapidly recovering, and his injuries were gradually disappearing.

Chu Zhengyu felt a surge of excitement. There might really be some treasures or strange phenomena below the Heavenly Ladder, and perhaps there was an opportunity there that could help him break through to the Immortal Venerable realm.

Thinking of this, Chu Zhengyu turned to look at Lu Chen. To be honest, he didn't want to take Lu Chen to the area below where the strange phenomenon was located.

His body has recovered a lot, and his cultivation has also recovered considerably. His speed is definitely faster than that of the mortal immortal beside him. If he were to bring this mortal immortal along, his speed would be greatly reduced.

To seize an opportunity, you have to be quick, otherwise by the time he gets there, there will be nothing left.

However, he always felt that this person was not simple. The Beast Alliance brought this person in, it was impossible that they only valued his healing skills. This person might have some secrets.

After thinking about it for a while, Chu Zhengyu finally decided to bring Lu Chen along.

Regardless of whether this person has other secrets, his healing techniques will still be of great use to me until I find the other Immortal Kings of the Nine Heavens Academy.

Below the celestial ladder phenomenon lies a valley, outside which various forces have gathered.

When Immortal Venerable Xiyue arrived at this valley, she encountered more than a dozen members of the Beast Alliance, which relieved her slightly. These members of the Beast Alliance were mostly at the level of Immortal Lord or above, and there were also some Immortal Kings.

Once they reunite, they will be better able to handle any dangers they encounter.

At this moment, people looked at the ladder to heaven in front of them and started discussing it amongst themselves.

"There must be some kind of heritage in this valley, right?"

"Should we go down and take a look?"

"Who knows if there's any danger inside? Let's wait and see."

"This small world is too difficult to explore. We can't use our divine sense to investigate, so how can we know what's inside?"

"I don't know why, but I always have a feeling of unease inside me."

……

Listening to the people's discussions, Xi Yue, the Immortal Venerable outside the valley, also fell into deep thought. She also felt that this valley was somewhat strange.

The power within the valley doesn't seem to be divine power.
Just then, a voice came from behind them, "Gentlemen, the opportunity is right in front of you, why don't you go in and take a look?"

Upon hearing this voice, everyone present turned to look behind them, only to see a person exuding a green, ethereal aura slowly walking into the crowd. Wherever he passed, people retreated in fear.

The green aura emanating from that person seemed to be some kind of poisonous gas, giving off a very dangerous feeling.

At this moment, a Celestial King in the crowd spoke up: "If you want to go in, you go in first."

The Azure Nether Immortal King sneered and took out a token representing his status in the Nine Heavens Academy, saying, "I am an outer court steward of the Nine Heavens Academy. From now on, everyone present must obey my orders."

People were stunned when they saw the token on the man's body, but they quickly realized that if this place attracted them, it would naturally attract people from the Nine Heavens Academy as well.

But then trouble struck. When they entered this small world, the Immortal Venerable of the Nine Heavens Academy had said that if they encountered anyone from the Nine Heavens Academy after entering the small world, they would have to obey the orders of the Nine Heavens Academy.

Next, the Immortal King of the Nine Heavens Academy will definitely order them to enter this valley to explore. Should they obey or not? A place that seems to hold great opportunities cannot be without any danger. Who knows what kind of danger is hidden here?

Entering rashly will surely lead to certain death.

The Azure Nether Immortal King glanced at the crowd present. He was very satisfied with the worried expressions on their faces. As a demonic cultivator, the fear these people instilled in him greatly increased his strength.

The Azure Netherworld Immortal King then said, "All of you, enter this valley immediately."

Upon hearing the Azure Nether Immortal King's command, the immortals present looked at each other in bewilderment.

At this moment, the Immortal King beside Immortal Venerable Xiyue transmitted his voice to her and asked, "Alliance Leader, what should we do now?"

Just as Immortal Venerable Xiyue was about to respond to him, she suddenly sensed a familiar aura rapidly approaching.

Her gaze immediately turned to the back of the crowd, and sure enough, she saw Lu Chen's figure.

Beside Lu Chen was another Celestial King. The moment that Celestial King appeared, the previously imposing Azure Nether Celestial King immediately changed his demeanor, fawningly greeting Chu Zhengyu, "Greetings, Elder Chu!"

Upon hearing the words of the Azure Nether Immortal King, everyone present was stunned for a moment.

Elder?
How can a Celestial King become an elder of the Nine Heavens Academy?
Lu Chen wasn't too surprised by this. Chu Zhengyu led a group of people from the Nine Heavens Academy into the Chaos Sea to search for Xuan Qingyun. They eventually found Xuan Qingyun and returned to the Heavenly Evolution Immortal Domain with her. Based on this alone, Chu Zhengyu's status in the Nine Heavens Academy wouldn't be too low.

Chu Zhengyu breathed a slight sigh of relief when he saw that the strange phenomenon of the Heavenly Ladder was spreading out from the valley in front of him. Fortunately, the phenomenon was not far from the forest where they had been before, and they had not encountered any ferocious beasts.

Chu Zhengyu then said to the Azure Netherworld Immortal King, "I have suffered some injuries."

As soon as Chu Zhengyu finished speaking, the Azure Nether Immortal King immediately took out a bottle of healing pills from his spatial ring.

After receiving the healing pill, Chu Zhengyu poured out one and put it in his mouth. Then he said to the Azure Nether Immortal King, "Do what you need to do. I'll recover first."

The Azure Nether Immortal King quickly replied, "Yes, Elder."

At this moment, the Azure Nether Immortal King glanced at Lu Chen next to Chu Zhengyu, which made him curious. How could a mortal immortal be following such an important figure as Chu Zhengyu?

Just then, Lu Chen headed directly towards the direction where Immortal Venerable Xiyue was.

Upon seeing Lu Chen, Immortal Venerable Xiyue immediately asked via telepathy, "Why are you with the elders of the Nine Heavens Academy?"

Lu Chen replied, "I ran into him as soon as I came in. Seeing that he was seriously injured, I gave him some treatment."

Immortal Venerable Xiyue replied with a blank expression, "You are indeed kind."

Most people would feel some resistance when they see someone from the Nine Heavens Academy, but Lu Chen actually took the initiative to treat someone from the Nine Heavens Academy, and that person was an elder of the Nine Heavens Academy.

If it were anyone else, they would probably have run far away from the heavily injured immortal of the Nine Heavens Academy.

When the Azure Nether Immortal King saw Lu Chen enter the Beast Alliance's ranks, he became even more puzzled. What was the Beast Alliance doing sending in a mortal immortal?
The Azure Nether Immortal King didn't think much of it. He glanced at the crowd outside the valley again, then his gaze fell on the few Golden Immortals. "You lot, go in immediately!"

The Golden Immortals turned deathly pale. "M-Master...we..."

Just as one of them was about to say something, the Azure Nether Immortal King raised his hand, and the next moment, a giant green hand emitting poisonous gas grabbed the Golden Immortal. Immediately afterwards, the Azure Nether Immortal King's body suddenly grew larger, and the giant hand stuffed the Golden Immortal into his mouth.

The Azure Nether Immortal King chewed twice, and blood splattered everywhere.

Upon witnessing this scene, the immortals present were immediately stunned. (End of Chapter)
