89: Chapter 89 The Reactions of Major Powers in the Immortal Realm

While Cao Yang was happily enjoying his new residence with a beauty by his side and making a Breakthrough in his cultivation base, the powerful beings of the Immortal Realm were plunged into panic.

In the central region of the Immortal Realm, there was a major power called the Xingyun Sect. Within the Xingyun Sect were two Old Ancestors at the Immortal Saint Realm: Immortal Saint Xing Yao and Immortal Saint Xing Yu. They were the founding Ancestral Masters of the Xingyun Sect, a pair of biological siblings.

These siblings had already lived for over ten million years. Their Aptitude was not considered good from the start, only average, not even reaching the level of a Prodigy.

That they were able to reach the pinnacle of power in the Immortal Realm was entirely due to a secret and the spirit of the 'Dao of Lying Low'!

Because of them, the guiding principle of the Xingyun Sect was summed up in two words: 'Keep a low profile'.

Back when the siblings had Cultivated to the Golden Immortal Realm, they knew further advancement was hopeless. Xing Yao began establishing the Xingyun Sect, while Xing Yu wandered and played, traveling throughout the Immortal Realm. By chance, she obtained a secret treasure: the starfire bottle.

After discovering the power of the starfire bottle, they disbanded the Xingyun Sect and 'lay low' inside the bottle. They endured the agony of being burned by starfire for forty-nine years, remolding their innate talents into the Starfire Divine Body.

After that, it took them a mere three million years in real time to advance from the Peak of the Golden Immortal Realm to the Early Stage of the Immortal Emperor Realm.

During this period, the younger sister Xing Yu nearly couldn't bear it several times and wanted to leave seclusion, but was stopped by Xing Yao.

It wasn't until both of them Broke Through to the Immortal Emperor Realm that they emerged from seclusion and re-established the Xingyun Sect.

After that, it took four million years of development to form the Xingyun Sect as it is today.

Because Xing Yao frequently went into seclusion inside the starfire bottle, his Realm had already reached the Quasi-Immortal Emperor level. However, he only displayed the Peak Immortal Saint Realm to the outside world. Xing Yu, who also went into seclusion occasionally, had reached the Peak Immortal Saint Realm, but only displayed the Late Stage Immortal Saint Realm externally.

"Brother, what should we do? Do we have to go back and hide in that bottle again for a while?"

"But we've already endured over three million years of lonely Cultivation inside it. We finally made it to the top of the Immortal Realm. How could a divine-level powerhouse suddenly appear in the Immortal Realm?" Xing Yu said, her willow-leaf eyebrows furrowed.

Although Xing Yu was an old crone over ten million years old, her appearance was that of a fifteen-year-old girl. She wore a yellow short skirt, with two small bells tied to her ankles with red thread.

Right now, anxious, she was pacing back and forth in the room, the bells on her feet jingling with each step. Her personality was lively and carefree. If not for her brother forcing her into seclusion, she could never have endured it for so long.

"Little sister, stop chattering here. You're not a child anymore."

"Even with our mediocre Aptitude, we obtained an Opportunity and can hide within the Immortal Realm. It's not surprising if other powerhouses are hidden too. What's important now is that the hidden deity doesn't start a fight with the deity from that other world. Otherwise, the living beings of the Immortal Realm will suffer," Xing Yao said calmly.

"I don't care. I'm definitely not going back into the bottle first. If you want to go back, you go," the younger sister Xing Yu said, then vanished from the room.

"Sigh. I'll go back into the bottle to hide for a while first. Little sister, if you're in danger, don't call for me," Xing Yao sent a message to his sister Xing Yu, then transformed into a streak of light and vanished into an inconspicuous bottle within the Forbidden Ground behind the Xingyun Sect's mountain.

"Hmph, coward," Xing Yu stamped her foot and disappeared into the sky above the Xingyun Sect.

In the Immortal Realm, there were other powers similar to the Xingyun Sect, such as the Shenlin Pavilion and the Falling Flower Valley. However, they were not as low-key as the Xingyun Sect because they had backing in the Heavenly Domains.

At this moment, in the main hall of the Shenlin Pavilion's master, three Immortal Saint powerhouses were seated: an old man at the Late Stage Immortal Saint Realm, a middle-aged man at the Early Stage Immortal Saint Realm, and an old woman at the Late Stage Immortal Saint Realm.

They were all dressed in magnificent attire, radiating powerful auras.

"I heard the deity that appeared this time is also extremely powerful. Even our main sect doesn't dare to provoke them," the middle-aged man said.

"Indeed, we must be cautious," the old womango alonged.

Just then, a figure suddenly appeared in the hall.

It was a young woman wearing a yellow dress, beautiful and captivating like the moon.

She was Xing Yu, the representative of the Xingyun Sect.

"Fellow Daoist Xing Yu has arrived. Please, have a seat," the old man seated in the host's position spoke in a rough, heavy voice.

Xing Yu nodded and walked over to sit beside the old woman.

"Now that everyone is here, let me first relay the information our Xingyun Sect received from our main sect in the Heavenly Domains," the old man said slowly. "The message states that the deity who appeared in the Yuansheng Immortal Domain is at least a Mid-Rank deity. It can be confirmed she easily withstood an attack from a Mid-Rank deity. Therefore, our main sect's opinion is to not provoke the other party."

Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions turned grave.

A deity above the Mid-Rank was an extremely powerful existence they simply could not contend with.

"Fellow Daoist Ruyan, what about your Falling Flower Valley? What do you say?" The old man looked at the old woman. His voice was low and hoarse, as if from a demon in the abyss, carrying a heavy pressure that made one involuntarily feel fear.

"Sigh, our Falling Flower Valley received the same message. We are told not to provoke the other party. If their demands are not excessive, we should try our best to satisfy them," the old woman let out a deep sigh, her tone filled with helplessness and worry. She knew well the limited strength of the Falling Flower Valley. Facing such a powerful opponent, they could only choose to retreat and compromise.

It must be known, their main sect in the Heavenly Domains only had one High-Rank deity. Moreover, this High-Rank deity could not take action against the Immortal Realm.

Although those below the High-Rank could occasionally act a few times, each time required paying a huge price. More importantly, powerhouses at the Immortal Emperor Realm and aboveIt is simply impossible enter the Immortal Realm. This meant that if war broke out with the other party, the Falling Flower Valley branch in the Immortal Realm would be the first to perish.

High-Rank deities and above could not launch large-scale attacks against the beings of the Immortal Realm. Otherwise, they would not only suffer backlash from the Immortal Realm's Heavenly Dao, but the Heavenly Dao itself would also retaliate.

Under these circumstances, the Falling Flower Valley dared not act rashly even more, fearing it might bring greater trouble.

After the meeting concluded, Xing Yu left the hall.

She secretly feltFortunately in her heart. Fortunately, the main sects of both the Xingyun Sect and the Falling Flower Valley had not ordered them to provoke that deity. Otherwise, the consequences would be unthinkable.

Not only these major powers reacted strongly to the appearance of a deity in the Immortal Realm. Many other forces across various Immortal Domains were also abuzz with discussions because Prince Jin's Mansion of the Mingyue Dynasty had been annihilated by a mysterious powerhouse. Many forces began keeping a low profile, afraid of offending this mysterious powerhouse and bringing upon themselves the disaster of sect or dynasty annihilation.

At this moment, in the imperial palace of the Mingyue Dynasty, Empress Mingyue sat somewhat worriedly on her throne. She was deeply concerned that one day thatSuspected Immortal Emperor-level powerhouse might appear, fearing the Mingyue Dynasty would also be implicated along with Prince Jin's Mansion.

"Your Majesty, you need not worry excessively," an old eunuch at her sideGentle comforted. "Since that mysterious powerhouse has not acted against us, it suggests he may not be targeting the entire Mingyue Dynasty. Moreover, I have already sent people to investigate this matter. I believe we will have results soon."

Empress Mingyue nodded slightly, but the worry in her heart did not diminish. She knew the strength of that mysterious powerhouse was unfathomable. Once he decided to move against the Mingyue Dynasty, the entire Imperial Dynasty would likely be plunged into crisis.

Just then, a guard hurried in to report: "Your Majesty, a powerful aura has been detected approaching outside the city walls."
