Qi Jue the Demonic Immortal was reborn, overpowering the Heavenly Court, the Southern Border, and the Two Heavens — three great factions. This battle soon swept through the entire Gu Immortal world like a hurricane, leaving everyone under heaven in shock.
"Who would have thought that Qi Jue the Demonic Immortal would actually be reborn?"
"This world is truly going to descend into chaos. Who knows how many more great powers will be reborn?"
"If Qi Jue the Demonic Immortal can be reborn, then the Venerables of past generations should certainly be able to as well. Heavens!"
"No wonder they say Grand Dream Immortal Venerable is the strongest among all past Venerables. In such a terrifying environment, to fight one's way through and become a Venerable — such a person absolutely cannot be weak."
While countless Gu Immortals were speculating and discussing, the three involved parties were actively regrouping.
Dragon Palace.
"Sigh, I originally thought we could obtain Qi Jue's True Inheritance. Who would have thought it was nothing but a trap!"
"Now that Qi Jue the Demonic Immortal has emerged, and we've gone and offended him — what are we supposed to do?"
"It's all Xiao He Jian's fault, dragging our Two Heavens Alliance into such an awkward position."
Many non-human Gu Immortals cast hostile glances toward Xiao He Jian.
Xiao He Jian sneered inwardly. He already knew this was instigated by the Vice Alliance Master, Ice Crystal Immortal King, in an attempt to suppress him.
He had joined the Two Heavens Alliance, and because of his exceptional strength and considerable renown, he already threatened Ice Crystal Immortal King's position — which was precisely why he'd drawn this suppression.
"Are you all done?" From the seat of honor, Wu Shuai let out a cold snort, his expression displeased.
Immediately, the Dragon Palace fell silent, and all the immortals shut their mouths.
Only then did Xiao He Jian put on a look of remorse, bowing deeply to Wu Shuai with a most sincere tone: "Alliance Master, your subordinate is guilty..."
But before he could continue, Wu Shuai cut him off: "Enough, save it. Even if Qi Jue the Demonic Immortal comes again, we have the Sinful Dragon, we have the Dragon Palace — what is there to fear? The most pressing matter right now is the Qi Power Fruits growing in everyone's Cave Heavens."
"Qi Jue the Demonic Immortal was reborn from precisely these Qi Power Fruits. Clearly, the mysteries and secrets of these fruits remain far from fully explored. How exactly should we clear out the Qi Power Fruits from your Cave Heavens? If we don't deal with them promptly, I'm afraid your Cave Heavens will be in danger."
"Indeed, indeed."
"The Alliance Master speaks truly!"
"Qi Power Fruits have already started appearing in my Cave Heaven. They draw upon the Heaven and Earth qi within, and cannot be directly eliminated."
"The same thing has happened in my Cave Heaven."
"Now is not the time for revenge against the Heavenly Court, nor to stand guard against Qi Jue the Demonic Immortal. The most urgent task is dealing with the Qi Power Fruits in our Cave Heavens."
In an instant, the expressions of all the immortals in the palace changed, and the conversation shifted entirely to the Qi Power Fruits.
However, the immortals' discussion yielded absolutely no results, and a sense of panic quickly permeated the great hall.
Xiao He Jian was no exception.
Although his Cave Heaven had not yet begun producing Qi Power Fruits, given the current trend, it was only a matter of time.
Ice Crystal Immortal King, meanwhile, had lost all appetite for suppressing Xiao He Jian.
The Qi Power Fruits in his Ice Crystal Cave Heaven were the most vigorous of all, and the situation was particularly dire.
Night Sky Wolf Lord also wore a grim expression.
His Cave Heaven had not escaped this calamity — Qi Power Fruits had appeared there as well. Though the fruits were still small in scale, the speed at which they grew was truly astonishing.
But the panic in Night Sky Wolf Lord's heart was far less than the others'.
"The Two Heavens Alliance can't resolve this matter, so I can seek a remedy from the Heavenly Court."
At this critical juncture, Night Sky Wolf Lord felt more and more that his earlier secret defection to the Heavenly Court had been an exceedingly wise choice!
