Cultivation: I Signed in with the Talent of an Immortal at the Start

Chapter 273: Star Palace Mighty the Power Behind the Scenes

“Not revealing his name, is he a powerful expert hidden in the Underworld Sea?”

Immortal Venerable Yuheng personally healed Su Ming, then questioned him in detail.

Su Ming, following Senior Brother Han Xuanji’s instructions, lowered his head and answered in a weak but clear voice:

“Reporting to Master, this Disciple’s consciousness was blurry at the time. I only vaguely saw starlight dispel the darkness, and a hazy figure descend. With a flick of his finger, that Devil Head was executed. That Senior did not leave his name. After healing part of this Disciple’s injuries, he sent this Disciple away from the Underworld Sea.”

“Such a demeanor, it seems he is a powerful expert of the Immortal Dao.”

“Cultivating the Dao of Stars, and also traveling in the Underworld Sea, could it be a certain Great Power of the Star Palace?”

The Immortal Venerables quickly had their guesses.

Especially Immortal Venerable Chang Geng, who himself also cultivated the Dao of Stars, sighed:

“This powerful expert’s cultivation on the Great Dao of Stars should be at the Grand Unity level. Even in the Star Palace, such individuals are rare. Su Ming, this child, truly has very good Luck.”

The several Chief Seats of Lingxu Heavenly Palace were both angry and joyful.

One was angry that the Demon Race was indeed insidious and cunning, and the other was pleasantly surprised that Su Ming could return alive.

Although they had speculated that a person with such great Luck should not fall so easily, they were still quite happy to hear the details of this incident.

Being willing to rescue Su Ming indicates that this mysterious Senior can be recruited.

To be able to so easily slay a Taiyi Golden Immortal, it is very likely an existence above Taiyi.

“However, this Demon Race has indeed become clever. Unlike before, when they always came openly, now they use all sorts of schemes and tricks.”

Jade Profound Immortal Revered was a bit displeased.

He cultivated the Sword Dao, and head-on clashes were naturally not a problem for him.

As long as a Grand Unity did not appear, he feared no one in the same Realm.

But now, powerful experts of the Demon Race have begun to use various methods to recruit powerful experts and ambush Immortal Dao Prodigies.

In fact, it’s not just Lingxu Heavenly Palace; Prodigies from many Immortal Dao great Sects have also fallen.

In recent years, Prodigies on the immortal dao prodigy ranking list have all begun to live in seclusion.

It’s not like they’re on the Prodigy Ranking, but rather on an assassination list.

“It must be related to that Demonic Master. Under his leadership, the Demon Race has become much more troublesome.”

Immortal Reverence Tianji spoke of a powerful expert who had only risen in the last ten thousand years.

The other party was originally an Immortal Dao Prodigy, but defected to the Demon Race, offering strategies and schemes to the Demon Race.

Now, he has even achieved the Demonic Path Grand Unity, with three hundred Disciples, most of whom are peerless Prodigies of the Demon Race, including many Demon Race members at the Taiyi Golden Immortal level…

At the same time, in Lingxu Heavenly Palace, Medicine King Hall.

In a quiet room filled with Spiritual Qi, Jiang Hao sat cross-legged on a jade couch, enveloped in a faint blue aura.

His face was still somewhat pale, and his aura was much weaker than before, but compared to when his Immortal Bone was stolen and he was on the verge of Dao destruction, he was much better.

Perhaps having the experience of his Immortal Bone being dug out, although his Foundation was damaged again this time, it was not as dangerous as before, and he quickly stabilized his Realm.

Jiang Hao slowly opened his eyes, feeling the Immortal Power within his body, which, though sluggish in circulation, had finally stabilized.

A trace of complexity flashed in his eyes.

His Immortal Bone being stolen again was still a great loss.

If not for his Sect and Family sparing no expense, using countless Heaven And Earth Treasures to continue his Dao path, he would already be a cripple.

“Brother Su…”

He murmured softly, his eyes filled with guilt and worry.

If not for protecting him that day, Su Ming would not have been severely injured and abducted by that mysterious powerful expert, his whereabouts still unknown, his life or death uncertain.

Compared to his own Dao path, this worry was so heavy that it almost made him gasp for breath.

“Creak—”

The door to the quiet room was gently pushed open, and a figure walked in.

It was Li Changsheng.

He held a jade pot in his hand, which contained a medicinal meal for nourishing Origin Qi that he had specially fetched from the Spiritual Cuisine Workshop.

“Brother Jiang, how do you feel?”

Li Changsheng placed the jade pot on a nearby jade table and asked with concern.

“Thank you for your concern, Brother Li, I am fine now, it’s just…”

Jiang Hao gave a bitter smile and shook his head,

“My cultivation has plummeted. I fear it will be difficult to recover.”

Although he said that, Li Changsheng saw more of an upward mentality in his eyes, rather than despair.

Li Changsheng sat beside him, silent for a moment, then said:

“As long as you’re alive, there’s hope. You were dug out once before, didn’t you also endure it?”

“Haha, that’s true.”

Jiang Hao said with a bitter smile:

“However, I wonder how Brother Su is doing?”

Hearing this, Li Changsheng replied:

“I was just about to tell you this good news. Senior Brother Su has returned safely and is unharmed.”

“Excellent, excellent.”

Jiang Hao also couldn’t help but smile.

“A good man is blessed by heaven. At the brink of death, he was rescued by a Senior.”

Li Changsheng said with emotion.

Speaking of this, he couldn’t help but think of something.

After he informed Han Xuanji about this matter, Su Ming was rescued not long after.

Was it too much of a coincidence?

Then he spoke of this matter, and Jiang Hao was also a little surprised:

“It’s not impossible.”

“Could Senior Brother Han’s background be even more powerful than we imagined?”

He did not treat Li Changsheng’s words as a fantasy but seriously considered them.

“In that case, the power behind Senior Brother Han should be stronger than the Jiang Family, stronger than the Heavenly Palace.”

“It’s possible Senior Brother Han acted personally.”

Li Changsheng said with conviction.

Then the two looked at each other and smiled, clearly finding this bold guess too unrealistic themselves…

Myriad Phenomena Garden.

Li Taiqing was still reporting the intelligence he had gathered to Han Xuanji.

“Master, it is said that a Great Power from the Star Palace saved Junior Martial Uncle Su Ming, just as you predicted.”

“Mm, it’s good that he’s fine.”

Han Xuanji didn’t even move an eyelid, studying the newly acquired “True Dragon Egg.”

The Dragon egg was about the size of a millstone, its shell a warm, jade-white, covered with a layer of fine, naturally formed golden patterns, faintly emitting a majestic aura of life.

The System’s reward was a living egg, not a dead one.

Li Taiqing didn’t think much of it, only assuming Han Xuanji had learned the news through other means, and continued:

“The Heavenly Palace has identified the mastermind. It should be the Demonic Master, and the other party seems to have also allied with another force.”

“Oh?”

Han Xuanji was thoughtful.

The initial group of people who attacked Jiang Hao and Su Ming did not seem to be from the Demon Race.

This was the answer Jiang Hao obtained by using his Heavenly Eye.

Although it might be misleading, it did not rule out the suspicion of Immortal Dao forces.

The Nirvana Immortal Bone possesses many profound abilities.

While the Demon Race would benefit from it, the benefits would undoubtedly be even greater if an Immortal Dao Prodigy obtained it.

“Unfortunately, a powerful expert who has deep cultivation in the Great Dao of Destiny erased his traces.”

Han Xuanji shook his head.

Even at his current level, he could only see a few clues.

A powerful expert from a non-Human Race force had made a move.

“Is it the Golden Crow Race?”

Han Xuanji immediately thought of this ambitious race.

However, he didn’t think too much about it.

The Golden Crow God Clan, as the current Lord of the Demon Court, allied with many ancient races, its momentum was vast.

Even if they were the ones who did it, Lingxu Heavenly Palace and the Jiang Family could only suffer in silence.
