The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 2184: Chapter 2184: Sudden Mutation [Second Update]

Money moves the heart!

For the Xin Family and these great forces, the entry quota for the Yellow Spring Cave is akin to priceless wealth.

“Enough,” the Clan Chief Xin Si said in a low voice.

He turned his gaze, scanning the people present.

“The entry quota for the Yellow Spring Cave is precious, but our Xin Family must not be shameless. Besides, you all know the state of our family; if not for young friend Jing Yan, our Xin Family probably would have just a basic quota,” Clan Chief Xin Si said coldly.

Although Clan Chief Xin Si spoke with righteousness, he was indeed somewhat hesitant in his heart; otherwise, he wouldn’t have been pondering moments ago. However, after some deliberation, he still felt he shouldn’t go back on his word.

Upon hearing the clan chief speak this way, everyone understood the meaning of Clan Chief Xin Si.

“Clan Leader, Mr. Jing Yan has arrived,” Chief Manager Xin Li said as he walked in from outside.

“Please, hurry,” said Clan Chief Xin Si, a smile appearing on his face.

The Xin Family had already come to a conclusion internally, so before Jing Yan raised the issue of the quota, Clan Chief Xin Si brought it up first. The Xin Family had a total of three entry quotas for the Yellow Spring Cave; internally, they would send two Immortal Rhythm Level cultivators into the Yellow Spring Cave, and the remaining quota was given to Jing Yan.

Of course, Jing Yan expressed gratitude, a sigh of relief escaping his heart. Indeed, before coming, Jing Yan was slightly worried that the Xin Family might renege. The quota was counted under the Xin Family’s name, and if they reneged, Jing Yan truly would have no recourse. If the Xin Family repented, even Yuantong Immortal Venerable couldn’t say anything, as the agreement between Jing Yan and the Xin Family was a gift agreement, not a regular employment fee. If it was considered an employment fee, Jing Yan would have to hand it over to Yuantong Immortal Venerable; how can one hand over such a quota?

Several days later!

“Buzz!”

An unbelievable wave of energy descended, with the Yellow Spring Cave at its center, spreading outward at high speed.

All cultivators near the Yellow Spring Cave clearly sensed the presence of this power. Everyone’s pupils contracted, almost simultaneously turning to look at the same location.

Jing Yan was no exception.

Jing Yan gazed intently at the sky, in that expanse of void, two doors emitting yellow light gradually appeared. One door was relatively large, and the other slightly smaller. The horrifying power was rippling from the position of these two doors.

The Yellow Spring Cave has opened!

Once every hundred million years.

In a very short time, the cultivators gathered near the Yellow Spring Cave surged towards the position of the two doors. Yuantong Immortal Venerable floated in the air, overlooking below. The leaders and high-level figures of the Four Great Forces appeared at the forefront. Following them were dozens of Shen Zhou Heavenly Monarchs and the Wanwu Realm practitioners they brought.

“Such terrifying power,” Jing Yan stood among the crowd, his heart shaking.

The power emanating from the two doors, sensed roughly, doesn’t seem overwhelmingly strong. Even a casual attack from an Immortal Rhythmic Strong Person might not be weaker than the power released by the doors. However, the power of these two doors made Jing Yan feel frightened.

This is a higher-level force. Jing Yan is not sensing this level of power for the first time. In the Purple Thunder Forbidden Zone of the Chaos World, Jing Yan had such contact. Therefore, Jing Yan knew that it was the power of the Immortal Emperor Level, a power high above, overlooking all beings.

It’s a fearsome power that does not tolerate desecration.

Beneath the Immortal Emperor, all are ants!

Even the Immortal Venerable closest to the Immortal Emperor Level must gaze upward at the Immortal Emperor. The Immortal Emperor is a being of another level.

“The Yellow Spring Cave has opened, please Taoist Xin Si, Taoist Gong Zhi, Taoist Li Feng, and Taoist Ao Hong arrange for cultivators to enter the Advanced Entrance. Shen Zhou Heavenly Monarchs, please arrange for cultivators below the Nether Sky Realm to enter the Low-level Entrance based on your respective quotas,” came the majestic voice of Yuantong Immortal Venerable.

The two doors with yellow light halos flashing, the larger flash is the Advanced Entrance, the smaller one is the Low-level Entrance.

Xin Si and the others were all somewhat excited. As for who from each force would enter the Advanced Entrance, they had of course already decided.

“Young friend Jing Yan, would you like to enter the Yellow Spring Cave together with the two elders of my Xin Family later?” Clan Chief Xin Si said with a smile to Jing Yan not far away.

“Alright,” Jing Yan nodded lightly with a smile.

The cultivators entering the Yellow Spring Cave would not appear in the same location inside; once inside, the cultivators are randomly placed in a certain area. Therefore, entering simultaneously doesn’t have much significance.

“So Jing Yan is really going to enter the Yellow Spring Cave?”

“It seems so! Clan Chief Xin Si gave one of the Xin Family’s quotas to Jing Yan.”

“Before, I was even guessing whether the Xin Family would go back on their word. That’s an Advanced Entrance quota after all!”

“The Xin Family is quite honorable, though they probably feel some pain about this, right? But no choice, they promised.”

“You all talk about the Xin Family. In my opinion, the Xin Family doesn’t need to feel pain at all. If not for Jing Yan, how could the Xin Family ever get three quotas for the Advanced Entrance?”

“…”

Many watched as Jing Yan stepped forward, joining the two Immortal Rhythm level elders of the Xin Family, naturally guessing Jing Yan would also enter the Yellow Spring Cave, and they secretly discussed among themselves.

Inspector Ao Hong and others from the Mystic Moon Trading House cast fierce glances at Jing Yan.

“Lu Chun, if you encounter Jing Yan inside, don’t hesitate to take action,” Inspector Ao Hong transmitted to an elder beside him.

“Rest assured, Inspector General, I know what to do. Huh, that kid’s strength is strong, but he’s ultimately just in the Nether Sky Realm. If he falls into my hands, he can forget about surviving,” the elder named Lu Chun responded via transmission.

This Lu Chun is no ordinary Immortal Rhythm Cultivator; he is among the strongest Immortal Rhythm Cultivators in the region’s Mystic Moon Trading House. His strength is not far behind Inspector Ao Hong. Initially, Lu Chun was stationed at the regional headquarters of the Mystic Moon Trading House, but was transferred by Inspector Ao Hong after the Netherworld Points contention.

Inspector Ao Hong had intended to personally enter the Yellow Spring Cave to find an opportunity to kill Jing Yan, but after some discussions, it was deemed inappropriate. As one of the leaders of the Four Great Forces, personally entering the Yellow Spring Cave was indeed somewhat improper. Moreover, entering the Yellow Spring Cave is not without risk; although the dangers within are mostly non-lethal, no one to date dares to claim full understanding of the Yellow Spring Cave. No one can fully explore the Yellow Spring Cave.

“Everyone may enter,” Yuantong Immortal Venerable spoke again.

“Boom!” Just as Jing Yan and others prepared to enter the Advanced Entrance, a black crack descended from the sky above the two doors with yellow light halos.
