Immortal Fairies Always Have Designs on Me-Chapter 900 - 379: Zhiyu Crossing Tribulation—Entangling Master!

Eastern Realm, Qingfeng Domain, in a small city far from the passes of the Shenmiao Dynasty.

Disguised as 'Senior Brother Zhang', Lu Jin'an halted his steps, and the group from Lingguang Immortal Academy following him also stopped instinctively.

"Senior Brother Zhang?"

"My apologies." Lu Jin'an turned to face the others from Lingguang Immortal Academy, surrounded by a blue hue of spiritual power, and the next moment, he struck: "Blame it on knowing too much, you lowly beings of the Lower Realm!"

"Senior Brother Zhang, you are from the Upper Realm..."

The voice abruptly cut off. With 'Senior Brother Zhang's' strength, it was impossible to kill everyone instantly, but Lu Jin'an's goal wasn't to kill.

He only slew the three who attempted to flee immediately.

As for the others, either they were severely injured or allowed to escape.

By the time the cultivators in the city reacted and came rushing, Lu Jin'an had already left the scene with Zhiyu.

From atop the city gate tower, Lu Jin'an watched the chaos on the main road below expressionlessly. This way, Lingguang Immortal Academy wouldn't be concerned with external affairs for a while.

The presence of a possessor was enough to destabilize the internal structure of Lingguang Immortal Academy temporarily.

Moreover…

Lu Jin'an took out the Communication Compass, not trusting the Wandao Sect office in the Qingfeng Domain, so he needed to pass the message through other Wandao Sect offices elsewhere.

There were many Wandao Sect offices in the Eastern Realm; by transmitting messages one after another, one of them would eventually get out, especially with the Lin Yuan Sword Sect in consideration.

After finishing all this, Lu Jin'an glanced back at the pass location of the Shenmiao Dynasty, frowning slightly.

Though the prestige of Wandao Sect was high, being a major sect at the frontier of the Two Realms Pass, its actual influence in more distant regions remained too weak.

And though the small world of the Lu Family was also in the Eastern Realm, it was not in this location, moreover... he did not wish to rely on the Lu Family's power.

Retracting his gaze, Lu Jin'an left the small city with Zhiyu, planning to make a breakthrough within a month before returning to the Eastern Dynasty.

Once the Eastern Dynasty was secured, the influence Wandao Sect lacked in the Eastern Realm could be compensated.

"Master, Master, where are we going?"

Seeing Lu Jin'an's original appearance restored and wearing a new outfit, Zhiyu curiously asked.

"Find a place to break through." Lu Jin'an, wearing a mask, pinched Zhiyu's cheeks: "You must also study the rules of space seriously during this time, understood?"

"Understood~" Zhiyu loudly responded, then tilted her head and curiously asked: "Master, Zhiyu feels so powerful now~"

Saying this, she waved her tiny fist, surrounded by a dark-demon energy.

"Because we've left the Eastern Dynasty."

"Why did we leave?"

"Because we need to break through."

"Oh~" Zhiyu seemed half understanding: "Why didn't we leave earlier?"

"Because some things can't be known by Dongfang Xinglan."

"Is, is that so?"

"Yes."

Lu Jin'an smiled at her. Although he could have left through the West Jing Pass already controlled by Dongfang Xinglan while in Jiangde City, it would be time-consuming and provoke Dongfang Xinglan's vigilance.

As far as he understands, Dongfang Xinglan, though having control over the West Jing Pass, maintained strict defense both inside and outside the pass, not allowing anyone to go in or out.

The reason she did so was not hard to guess: until unification was complete, she wouldn't let those within her domain leave, resulting in insufficient manpower.

However, since leaving Jiangde City, Lu Jin'an had been pondering one question.

The reason Dongfang Xinglan insisted on strict defense even though aware of the true situation outside couldn't solely be because the unification wasn't completed.

Because she knew that the walls surrounding the Three Great Dynasties would collapse sooner or later, when that happens, what would she do?

Not difficult to speculate, since Lu Jin'an knew the fundamental reason she utilized him, as the Wandao Sect Saint Heir, lay in the future.

Yet, Lu Jin'an didn't believe she had only this backup plan.

Just like how Nanzhi now knew it was impossible to refine him as a sword spirit, Dongfang Xinglan also knew it was impossible, with her means, to fully control him as the Saint Heir.

Thus, she must have other plans.

Though Lu Jin'an was not clear on Dongfang Xinglan's real scheme, it didn't hinder him from coming outside and making a further breakthrough.

In the end, personal strength was the real confidence ensuring any goal could be achieved.

"Master." After watching the swiftly moving clouds around them for a while, Zhiyu asked again: "Where are we going now?"

"Secret realm."

Lu Jin'an had long prepared; within the Grotto Heaven, where nature's spiritual energy was isolated, wouldn't be an ideal place for a breakthrough. Given the amount of nature's spiritual energy required for his breakthrough, coupled with needing a sparsely populated place, the secret realm was the best place for breakthrough.

And such a place, Lu Jin'an had just learned of from 'Senior Brother Zhang's' memory.

A recently discovered Immortal-level secret realm by Lingguang Immortal Academy, under exploration.

The Grotto Heaven is a gift from Yunding Continent, whereas a secret realm is an inheritance from an Immortal seated in meditation, but distinct from Immortal inheritances.

Because a secret realm is a small world, not only powerful lords had seated in meditation but also their affiliated forces.

For example, treasures left behind by sects destroyed or disappeared are often within sealed secret realms.

When the Human Clan was on the rise, facing several major crises, some sects and forces sealed away precious treasures, awaiting future generations to aid in the Human Clan's ascent.
