The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 2446: Chapter 2446: Yama Palace

After the two chatted for a while, Jing Yan handed over the Immortal Pills he had recently refined to Wuxia.

Now Jing Yan was also researching another type of High Grade Immortal Pill, its formula purchased from the Golden Toad Commerce earlier. Back then, Jing Yan spent a trillion Black Crystal Stones to buy two formulas: one for a Mid-grade Immortal Pill and one for a High Grade Immortal Pill.

If he could succeed in crafting this High Grade Immortal Pill, the Hongmeng Pill Tower’s sales of High Grade Immortal Pills could increase to two types.

...

”Senior brother, the city ahead is Hongmeng City.”

Several tens of thousands of miles away from Hongmeng City, two figures dashed almost like lightning.

”Yes, it’s Hongmeng City. I’ve heard that the City Lord here is called Jing Yan, and he doesn’t belong to any of those factions, nor does he seem to have connections with them,” the other person looked ahead and nodded as he spoke.

Both were traveling at incredible speeds, clad in light purple long robes.

”Senior brother, we have no choice now but to enter Hongmeng City for refuge.” The relatively younger cultivator looked somewhat excited.

The slightly older cultivator seemed somewhat hesitant.

”Senior brother, we don’t have time to think. If we don’t enter Hongmeng City, we are sure to die.” The younger cultivator spoke rapidly while flying beside his senior brother.

Hongmeng City grew closer and closer.

If they didn’t enter the city, they’d have to skirt around it, and skirting around it meant no chance of returning. They now had just two choices: to be caught and killed by their pursuers, or to enter Hongmeng City and hide temporarily.

Although entering Hongmeng City didn’t guarantee survival, it at least offered them a slim chance to live.

”If we enter Hongmeng City, I’m afraid we’ll cause trouble for City Lord Jing Yan.” The elder cultivator furrowed his brows tightly.

”Senior brother, I’ve heard that City Lord Jing Yan isn’t easy to provoke either. Those chasing us might not be willing to clash with City Lord Jing Yan casually. I think even if they find out we’re in Hongmeng City, at most they might demand Jing Yan hand us over. They likely won’t bring fatal trouble to City Lord Jing Yan.” The younger cultivator’s speech quickened.

”Fine, let’s go in and hide.” The elder cultivator nodded.

By this time, they were very close to Hongmeng City.

They descended from the sky, successfully passing through the city gates into the city. Even after decades, Hongmeng City still had no rule of charging entry fees. Entering the city, the two didn’t relax; they remained on high alert, wary of everything around them.

”Junior brother, let’s find an inn to stay at first.” The elder cultivator scanned the surroundings cautiously, speaking to the younger cultivator.

”Okay.” The younger cultivator responded.

Nowadays in Hongmeng City, there were quite a few inns, most privately run. The two picked a random inn to stay in, instructing the staff not to disturb them, and shut themselves in their room.

”Senior brother, how are your injuries?” The junior brother asked with concern.

”It’s nothing serious, I won’t die.” The elder cultivator chuckled, though his eyes couldn’t hide his weariness.

His injuries weren’t minor. Otherwise, how could someone at the Immortal Venerable Peak Realm show fatigue?

Indeed, these two were extremely powerful cultivators. The elder cultivator had reached the Immortal Venerable Peak Realm. The younger was at Late-stage Venerable Immortal cultivation. For such strong individuals to be hunted to this extent demonstrated the formidable power of their pursuers.

And less than an hour after they entered Hongmeng City, several formidable people arrived outside the city.

In total, there were five cultivators. These five seemed not young, each with a flash of brilliance in their eyes, exuding a strong killing intent.

Strikingly, all five wore identical bright red long robes, making them exceptionally conspicuous.

”They’ve entered this city.” One of the five spoke upon arriving outside Hongmeng City.

”Yes.” Another nodded.

”This is Hongmeng City, and the City Lord is someone named Jing Yan,” the third person said.

”I’ve heard his strength is quite formidable, at least Immortal Venerable Peak battle power.” The fourth person’s gaze swept coldly over the city.

”The city’s formation numbers seem limited, but there might be a somewhat special Big Array,” the fifth person observed the faintly visible formation energy barrier in the sky above the city.

”Those two remnants from the Thunder Domain must die!” One person said in a somber tone.

”Yes, these two are major catch from the Thunder Domain, we absolutely can’t let them slip away again this time. If they escape once more, tracking them down in the future will be even harder.” The others nodded.

”But I’m afraid City Lord Jing Yan won’t be easy to deal with. What if...he hinders us?” One person furrowed their brow, looking at the others.

”Heh, if he obstructs, we’ll flatten his city. Let’s hope he’s perceptive; if he cooperates willingly, there’s no need to stirs trouble, leaving him might be useful down the road.” One person coldly laughed, bearing a grim smile.

”Then let’s go in!”

Five red silhouettes arrived quickly outside the city gate.

There were quite a few adventurers entering and exiting Hongmeng City, and upon seeing those five figures, they all wore frightened expressions. Even those closest to the city gate, about to enter, withdrew aside when they saw the five red-robed individuals.

These adventurers, facing those five red-robed figures, dared not lift their heads, even their breathing was cautious.

And these five red-robed figures walked with heads held high, striding into the city as if the adventurers were mere air, not worthy of their attention.

Only after the five red-robed figures entered Hongmeng City did the adventurers outside the gate breathe a long sigh of relief. Some even had sweat beading on their foreheads, feeling numb.

”Yama Palace!”

”Yama Palace’s Red-Clothed Killing Stars!”

”Why are they coming to Hongmeng City? Are they here to kill City Lord Jing Yan of Hongmeng City?”

”I don’t know. In any case...big trouble is coming! Five of them, five Red-Clothed Killing Stars! My heavens, I really don’t know what kind of major event has happened for Yama Palace to send out five Red-Clothed Killing Stars at once!”

The adventurers whispered among themselves, eyes filled with fear, their voices trembling.

Yama Palace! The most fearsome power inside Kunling Heaven, bar none.

Just the name alone sends countless cultivators fleeing!

Rumor has it, if Yama Palace wants to kill a cultivator, then that cultivator is dead for sure. Even leaders of those superpowers are no exception, unless they never leave their bases.
