A major problem?

Li Cheng snorted in disdain, thinking the biggest problem was that someone wanted to cause trouble!

Seeing his own dissuasion ineffective and Li Cheng still charging at him with murderous intent, the old man hastily continued, “If we don’t join forces, we’ll both die here!”

As his own attack was about to land, the old man showed no intention of striking, piquing Li Cheng’s curiosity—it seemed the elder had indeed discovered something.

Stopping two zhang away from the elder, without waiting for Li Cheng to speak, the elder pointed at the entrance and said, “Look!”

The entrance was a gorge split between two mountain peaks, and through the gorge, one could clearly see a gigantic palace a thousand meters tall at its center!

The Nine Palace Heaven Guarding Array, formed by nine mountain peaks, was there to protect this palace!

Although quite far, one could immediately see the plaque hanging on that grand palace, inscribed with: “Astonished God!”

“Astonished God Palace? What about it?” Li Cheng looked but didn’t notice anything unusual.

The elder, looking shocked and wearing a strange expression, turned to Li Cheng and said, “Have you never heard of the number one Artifact Refining Master in the Immortal World?”

Li Cheng rolled his eyes, “I’ve never been to the Immortal World, do you think I should have heard of him?”

The elder nodded in realization and said, “Immortals have nine major realms. Like me, I’m merely at the first realm, but this master, by the name of Qi Jingshen, is at the ninth realm, the Immortal Emperor!”

“Known as the Astonished God Immortal Emperor, he is the most famous Artifact Refining Master in the Immortal World!”

Listening to the elder’s introduction, Li Cheng’s eyes lit up—this was a genuine big shot!

Then, that meant the palace must contain countless Immortal Artifacts, right?

However, seeing the palace doors wide open, he assumed someone had already beat him to it.

“You seem very excited, but you should be worried. If even the Astonished God Immortal Emperor perished here, it shows this place is not as calm as it appears on the surface. There’s definitely danger lurking, and with our strength, we’re afraid we won’t make it out,” the elder said with a grave tone.

Li Cheng looked at the elder with disdain, “Since you know the Astonished God Immortal Emperor has already fallen, what’s there to be scared of?”

The elder shook his head, his face still serious, “An existence like an Immortal Emperor, the highest in the Immortal World, could leave behind a mere fraction of his capability, and that would be enough to doom us forever.”

Li Cheng glanced at the elder, not hiding the disdain in his eyes, and stepped toward the entrance.

The elder hesitated to speak, then ultimately clenched his teeth and followed Li Cheng.

Li Cheng clearly sensed through the Power of Laws that the Order of Heaven and Earth here was normal, indicating no interference from arrays or formations, so it should be safe.

Moreover, if an Immortal Emperor had perished in the Kunlun Realm, it must’ve been the Grand Venerable Bai Jie who killed him a hundred thousand years ago!

After a hundred thousand years, who knows how many powerful beings have visited this place? If there were dangers, they would have been broken by now.

Similarly, if there were treasures, they would have been taken away by others.

[Detected a disciple meeting the requirements, recruit to receive rewards.]

Just as he entered, a prompt sounded in Li Cheng’s mind, followed by a big green arrow pointing toward the Astonished God Palace!

Li Cheng raised an eyebrow—what was going on?

This was a Secret Land, almost certainly left behind by the Astonished God Immortal Emperor, but how could there be a disciple meeting the requirements in such a place?

Given the Sword Dao and Fist Path Laws circulating in this area, even someone in the Mahayana Realm might not survive safely, and probably only at the Transcendence Tribulation Stage would it be possible.

So, the disciple ahead who meets the requirements—is he at the Transcendence Tribulation Stage?

If he’s already at the Transcendence Tribulation Stage, how could he possibly consider becoming a disciple to someone of the same stage?

This disciple may be beyond recruitment.

With that in mind, Li Cheng stopped thinking about recruiting and looked around.

Nine mountain peaks formed a massive valley with the Astonished God Palace standing tall at its center, and although it wasn’t a desolate wasteland like the exterior, this place too was barren, without a single plant in sight.

Li Cheng walked straight towards the Astonished God Palace, encountering none of the dangers the elder had spoken of. The two, one in front and the other behind, quickly arrived at the entrance of the grand hall.

Looking around, the grand hall was empty except for twelve thick pillars.

“This Astonished God Palace is built so majestic, how come there’s just one great hall?” the elder wondered aloud.

“Are you blind? Didn’t you see that among them, six pillars support the grand hall, and the tops of the other six pillars are rooms?”

As Li Cheng spoke, he leapt up to check those rooms, but as expected, they were empty!

The elder also took a look and sighed, “We’re too late, there are remnants of the aura of Immortal Artifacts and Immortal Stones, taken away by someone many years ago.”

Li Cheng paid no attention to the elder and instead shifted his gaze to the center of the grand hall.

There was clearly nothing there, and he didn’t sense any presence, yet the green arrow was pointing right at that place!

Obviously, the person who met the conditions was hiding right there.

He had eluded not only Li Cheng’s Spiritual Sense but also the elder’s Immortal Sense!

“Even the old man’s Immortal Sense didn’t detect anything unusual, who is this guy, what’s his background?”

Li Cheng’s curiosity was piqued, such strong concealment abilities weren’t simple at all!

“Eh? Li Cheng, look, this pillar has a secret technique inscribed on it!”

Just then, the elder’s voice rang out.

Li Cheng turned to look, and saw the elder staring excitedly at a pillar.

Flying over to take a look, Li Cheng indeed found that a Cultivation Method for a movement technique was inscribed there, named: Immortal Spirit Step!

Examining it closely, Li Cheng questioned, “According to the inscription, this is a popular movement technique, using Space Law to sense the Spatial Veins, stepping out to cross one hundred and twenty-nine thousand six hundred miles in a single leap. You’re so excited, surely you can’t…?”

The corner of the elder’s mouth twitched, “To use it, one must first perceive the Space Law, and at least master Three Thousand Spatial Rules to execute it, of course I can’t.”

Li Cheng pondered, mastering Three Thousand Spatial Rules was necessary to execute it, in that case, he wondered how many Spatial Rules one would need to master to use it.

Surely it wouldn’t take too many Spatial Rules to execute it!

Perhaps just three or five would suffice.

A single step crossing one hundred and twenty-nine thousand six hundred miles, that speed was very tempting indeed!

“You look at the other pillars to see if there’s anything, I’ll memorize the Immortal Spirit Step first,” Li Cheng said.

The elder knew that Li Cheng was sending him away to avoid being ambushed.

After a slight hesitation, the elder said, “Actually, disagreements are better settled than prolonged, we don’t have any real grievances, why not let bygones be bygones?”

Li Cheng glanced at the elder, of course, you would want to let bygones be bygones since you can’t beat me.

If you could beat me, I’d probably have been captured and taken to the Taoist Mysterious Sect to toil at Alchemy by now.

So, how could we possibly just let bygones be bygones?

“It’s not that I can’t consider a peaceful solution, there are two conditions, first, I need the Immortal Infant, second, I need a large amount of Immortal Stones, third, you must swear an oath on the Heavenly Dao that you will not harm the Heavenly Mechanism Sect.”

Listening to Li Cheng’s calm voice, the elder had a nagging feeling that something was off.

Suddenly, he realized, “Isn’t that three conditions?”

“Does it make a difference if it’s two or three?” Li Cheng retorted. Did he have to tell him that while speaking, he had thought of the third condition?

The elder pondered for a moment and then nodded, “No matter, I have two conditions as well!”

Li Cheng raised an eyebrow, “You think you’re in a position to make conditions?”
