103: I was almost fooled

Transcendents cannot peer into the past of other Transcendents.

This is because every Transcendent is a unique existence, and the traces of their own destiny are well hidden.

Even Wang Qing can currently only deduce a small portion of a Transcendent's actions.

To deduce their past, he must return to the Land of the Far Shore; otherwise, it's impossible.

Only the Land of the Far Shore completely transcends the scope of the Hongmeng Sea and the Multiverse, reaching an unimaginable degree.

Only there can one deduce the past and future of beings on the path to Transcension.

There might be other methods, such as the Dao Completion Realm, but there are only a five-digit number of such Big Boss in the Hongmeng Sea.

However, no Dao Completion Big Boss would be so bored as to deduce Transcendents.

Thinking of this,

Wang Qing transformed into a black mist and drilled into the bottom of the broken cliff, wanting to see what secrets lay beneath.

Shen Shiyao blinked, but did not follow him down, instead tearing space and going elsewhere.

After Wang Qing achieved Transcension, he had given her freedom; she could go anywhere.

She had other things to do, and could return to Wang Qing's side at any time, not worrying at all about Wang Qing having enemies he couldn't handle.

Moreover, she always felt that the creator of the Transcendents Alliance should have also arrived in the Immortal Realm.

She had to monitor the movements of the Transcendents Alliance leader to prevent him/her from causing trouble behind the scenes.

Southern Han Imperial Capital.

Above the city wall, a black-robed ethereal figure, with eyes like torches, stared as Wang Qing descended into the Southern Han Broken Cliff.

A strange light flashed in her eyes, and the corners of her mouth curved upwards.

"Lord of the Other Shore, the secrets hidden within you are very tempting!"

"You managed to escape even during the Nine Burials of the Far Shore; you truly are an unkillable cockroach."

"This time, you've even stepped into Transcension. Prepare to be killed again!"

The goddess, concealed by her large black robe, gave a sinister smile, as if she already saw Wang Qing kneeling before her, submitting, and then being crushed to death.

She was precisely the existence that even Shen Shiyao greatly feared: the leader of the Transcendents Alliance, "Zhuge Yuanxi," whose origins were mysterious.

She and Wang Qing could be considered old acquaintances and mortal enemies.

As soon as Wang Qing started to do well, she would act to destroy everything he possessed, preventing him from having an easy time.

She had no interest in scheming against others; it was only Wang Qing, this stubborn and difficult bone, that gave her a sense of purpose when dealing with him.

"Alliance Leader, what are your plans next?"

Yun Fu appeared out of thin air, asking suspiciously.

Zhuge Yuanxi's figure flickered between real and ethereal, and she said lightly, "You go restore Gu Junan's memories first and have him unify the Immortal Realm!"

"He can complete the task of cultivating the Land of Immortal Realm Luck. I will keep an eye on Wang Qing."

After speaking, her figure dissolved into specks of light, as if she had never existed in the world.

Yun Fu's expression was complex, actually worrying about what would happen if Wang Qing was not the Alliance Leader's opponent.

"Bah, how can this empress worry about the safety of that beast?"

As soon as this absurd thought appeared, she immediately shook her head, opened a spatial passage, and descended towards the Primordial Beginning Immortal Domain.

Primordial Beginning Immortal Domain.

As soon as Gu Junan met Wuji Zi, he hastily asked, "Senior, can you calculate the ill-fated romance between Shi Yi and Miss Lin?"

Upon hearing the words "ill-fated romance," Shi Yi's mouth twitched, but he still looked expectantly at Wuji Zi, who was dozing in his rocking chair.

Thus, a comical scene unfolded before the Ancient Heavenly Palace.

Two young men guarded the sleeping, tattered-robed old Daoist. Even though they were gritting their teeth in frustration, they still tried hard to maintain a smile.

After a long while... Wuji Zi yawned, opened his half-closed eyes, and said, "Lin Qingyuan is the Dao Daughter of the Heavenly Fortune God Clan. Shi Yi has no marriage fate with her!"

"She will be caught by Wang Qing. I don't need to say what the consequences will be, do I?"

"What did you say? Did Wang Qing not die in the Tribulation?" Shi Yi cried out in panic, completely rattled.

Gu Junan wasn't much better. If Wang Qing hadn't died, and he had occupied Penglai Immortal Island...

When Wang Qing returned, wouldn't he be subjected to soul extraction, soul refining, and dismemberment?

His body trembled violently, and he stammered, "Senior Wuji Zi, don't joke around!"

"When the Tribulation arrived, the first Lightning Tribulation struck the place where Wang Qing was in seclusion in the Primordial Beginning Immortal Domain."

"He hadn't even stepped onto the path of Transcension, so how could he have escaped the Tribulation's judgment? Aren't you kidding?"

Wuji Zi sneered, "I won't lie to you. Wang Qing is currently in the Southern Cold Immortal Domain, and he will return to the Primordial Beginning Immortal Domain within half a month!"

"When he appears, I can only stand aside and watch.

"The Ancient Heavenly Court was also created by yourselves; I am merely working for you."

"If you don't want to be tortured and killed by Wang Qing, Emperor Gu and General Shi, you two had best find a place with good feng shui."

"Then, when Wang Qing returns, commit suicide by feigning death. I will conceal your Qi, and only then can you escape with your lives."

"Hmph, hmph, otherwise the consequences..."

At this point, Wuji Zi stopped speaking.

Gu Junan and Shi Yi exchanged glances, feeling utterly absurd.

One was an Immortal Emperor, the other an Immortal King, yet they had to rely on feigning death to escape?

"Senior, is there really no other way?" Shi Yi couldn't accept feigning death.

Wang Qing should have also been severely injured during the Tribulation.

If feigning death was for self-preservation, it would be better to fight with all their might. Perhaps they could even kill Wang Qing.

"There is another way, which is to invite the Immeasurable Buddha, but whether they will help you, I do not know."

"In my opinion, feigning death to escape is the best choice. I will personally protect your beloved women!"

"This... this!" Shi Yi and Gu Junan stammered, falling silent.

Now that it had come to this, inviting the Immeasurable Buddha might offer a one-tenth chance of survival and a nine-tenths chance of death.

It seemed that, just as Wuji Zi said, feigning death was indeed the best option.

However, both of them had very strong self-esteem, and they vaguely felt that even if Wang Qing survived the Tribulation, he must have suffered considerable injuries.

Now that a new era had arrived, there were only a five-digit number of Immortal Emperors in the Immortal Realm, and no more than ten Immortal Kings, all of whom were in the Ancient Heavenly Court.

If they united with other Immortal Emperors and Immortal Kings, killing Wang Qing might not be impossible.

"What are your thoughts, you two?"

"Feigning death to save yourselves, or going to invite the Immeasurable Buddha?"

A flicker of mockery flashed in the deepest part of Wuji Zi's eyes as he spoke insincerely, trying his best to mislead them.

Gu Junan sorted out his thoughts and said grimly, "We won't choose either method. We will unite with the existing experts of the Immortal Realm to besiege and kill Wang Qing."

Immediately after, Shi Yi echoed, "Right, Wang Qing should have been severely injured during the Tribulation. It's not certain who will win!"

"Heh heh, I have already calculated that Wang Qing was not severely injured, and his strength has advanced by leaps and bounds."

"For you to try and unite with others to attack Wang Qing is undoubtedly like throwing an egg against a rock; you will only die a more tragic death."

"It's still those two methods: go find the Immeasurable Buddha, or feign death to escape. I will protect your beloved women."

As soon as Wuji Zi's words fell,

"La la..."

Space shattered in response.

A woman dressed in a gauze gown appeared, and said coldly:

"Don't listen to his nonsense. If you feign death or go invite the Immeasurable Buddha, you two will die an even more tragic death!"

"He is not Wuji Zi; he is clearly Tianji Zi!"
