Chapter 1131 - 1131 Jiang Shengyi Appears
Da Cheng Sheng Ling, though having attained the Dao through an immortal gold stone fetus,
had in fact, at that level, already achieved a transformation in life tier.
The physical body could freely shift between the immortal gold stone fetus form and flesh and blood.
So naturally, offspring could be born as well.
And that Little Stone Emperor, as the direct descendant of Da Cheng Sheng Ling, was without question a genius of the highest caliber, absolutely one of the top existences in the immortal realm.
"No wonder they have such nerve, turns out they're a descendant of Da Cheng Sheng Ling!"
A patriarch-level figure from Tai Xuan Sect exclaimed.
Setting aside the deep foundations of Sheng Ling Island itself,
just the identity of being Da Cheng Sheng Ling's offspring meant very few in the immortal realm would dare provoke the Little Stone Emperor.
"This way, there's actually something worth watching. How will Yao Chi Holy Land respond?"
"Indeed, if not for Jiang Shengyi, the beings of Sheng Ling Island would probably have already forced their way into Yao Chi long ago. This shows they still have some reservations."
While the many factions in Luo Tian Immortal Realm were discussing this,
over at Yao Chi,
a large group of beings had gathered and surrounded the gates of Yao Chi Holy Land.
Looking out, they were unmistakably various immortal gold stone spirits.
The faction of Sheng Ling Island was extraordinarily unique, composed entirely of holy spirits, and their strength was quite formidable.
Especially given the rumors that within Sheng Ling Island, more than one Da Cheng Sheng Ling lay buried.
There were even living fossils said to have witnessed the ancient history of past eons.
Furthermore, due to the special nature of holy spirits,
they never lacked immortal gold divine materials.
Sheng Ling Island possessed more emperor-level weapons than other immortal factions.
For all these reasons, Sheng Ling Island was an existence that absolutely no one dared to provoke, even among immortal factions.
And at this moment, among this group of beings,
a woman with skin pale as paper, extremely slender bones, and a strikingly beautiful face called out coldly toward the gates of Yao Chi Holy Land.
"Yao Chi Holy Land, have you not made up your mind yet? My master's patience is limited."
"If you hand over the Nine Aperture Holy Spirit Stone Fetus, we will leave immediately. Otherwise, don't blame Sheng Ling Island for showing no respect to your Yao Chi Holy Land!"
The woman who spoke was named Gu Nü.
She was, in a sense, similar to that seed of Sheng Ling Island from the borderlands before, Bai Gu Gongzi.
Both were holy spirits born from the fusion of immortal gold and the remains of ancient powerhouses.
The master Gu Nü spoke of was naturally the Little Stone Emperor.
She was also one of the Little Stone Emperor's followers, and her own strength was no weaker than an ordinary seed-level genius.
Using a seed-level genius as a follower gave some indication of just how talented and powerful the Little Stone Emperor truly was.
"Your Sheng Ling Island has gone too far."
From Yao Chi Holy Land's side, a group of women in flowing robes stepped forward.
Yao Chi Holy Land was composed entirely of women, with no male members.
The one leading them was a beautiful woman dressed in palace robes.
She was the one who had invited Jiang Shengyi to Yao Chi Holy Land back on the Burial Emperor Star.
She was the Grand Elder of Yao Chi Holy Land, with a cultivation of Supreme Profound Venerable.
By any measure, this level of cultivation was already quite high.
Yet the Grand Elder of Yao Chi's expression remained grave.
With a single sweep of her gaze, she sensed that among the beings of Sheng Ling Island opposite them,
there was more than one Profound Venerable-level powerhouse.
And even more troubling, the purple-gold holy qilin at the very rear, whose aura was completely concealed, was utterly unreadable to her.
This made the Grand Elder of Yao Chi's expression turn rather unsightly.
"We are merely here to reclaim what belongs to our Sheng Ling Island. What wrong have we done?"
A cold smile appeared on Gu Nü's fair and beautiful face.
With the Little Stone Emperor backing her, she feared no one.
"What do you mean 'what belongs to you'? That Nine Aperture Holy Spirit Stone Fetus has been an offering of our Yao Chi since ancient times."
"Even if we handed it over to you, it would be very difficult for you to nurture it into a holy spirit with its own consciousness." The Grand Elder of Yao Chi said coldly.
Their Yao Chi had poured tremendous effort into it, nourishing that strange stone with all manner of spirit liquids and precious blood.
Since when did it become something belonging to Sheng Ling Island?
By that logic, wouldn't all immortal gold divine materials throughout the entire Nine Heavens Immortal Realm belong to Sheng Ling Island?
Gu Nü's expression remained unchanged upon hearing this.
"That is not for your Yao Chi to worry about. Even if it cannot be nurtured into a living being, the Nine Aperture Holy Spirit Stone Fetus is still of great use to my master."
Gu Nü was being straightforward.
The Little Stone Emperor needed the Nine Aperture Holy Spirit Stone Fetus, which was why they had come here to demand it.
No consideration was given to the fact that the Nine Aperture Holy Spirit Stone Fetus belonged to Jiang Shengyi.
Jiang Shengyi needed the Nine Aperture Holy Spirit Stone Fetus to transform and awaken her Twelve Aperture Immortal Heart.
"The Little Stone Emperor..."
The expressions of the women of Yao Chi all shifted slightly.
Ever since Jun Xiaoyao had stepped off the stage of this great era, the Little Stone Emperor, this descendant of Da Cheng Sheng Ling, had been hailed as one of the geniuses most likely to claim the role of protagonist.
If he were to obtain the Nine Aperture Holy Spirit Stone Fetus on top of that,
it was hard to imagine what level the Little Stone Emperor would transform to.
"We cannot let the Little Stone Emperor obtain the Nine Aperture Holy Spirit Stone Fetus!"
In that moment, every person in Yao Chi shared the same thought.
"Hmph, why waste words? Yao Chi Holy Land today is no longer what it once was in its ancient glory, nor is it the era of the Queen Mother of the West anymore."
"I'm afraid the entire Yao Chi Holy Land right now has not a single emperor-level figure. At most there is a quasi-emperor, and even that one is in secluded meditation and dormancy."
A Profound Venerable-level holy spirit from Sheng Ling Island stepped forward and laid it all bare.
The expressions of the Grand Elder of Yao Chi and the others all shifted.
It seemed Sheng Ling Island had already secretly investigated the situation of their Yao Chi Holy Land before coming.
"March directly into Yao Chi Holy Land, seize the divine maiden of the Jiang family, Jiang Shengyi, and take the Nine Aperture Holy Spirit Stone Fetus by force." Another being from Sheng Ling Island said coldly.
"Are you not afraid of the Jiang family!" the Grand Elder of Yao Chi shouted.
The reason they had originally wanted Jiang Shengyi to become the Holy Maiden of Yao Chi,
beyond her possessing an innate Dao fetus and having received the inheritance of the Queen Mother of the West,
was most importantly Jiang Shengyi's background in the Jiang family, as well as her connection to Jun Xiaoyao.
The Profound Venerable-level holy spirit of Sheng Ling Island said coldly, "What of the Jiang family? We are not going to kill Jiang Shengyi. Besides, our Sheng Ling Island does not fear the Jiang family!"
The deterrence of the Jiang family alone was not enough to make Sheng Ling Island back down.
"Then do you not care about the Jun family? Do you not care about Jun Xiaoyao!"
With those words,
the entire world fell into a rare moment of silence.
The Jun family.
No matter where this family was mentioned, it was enough to silence countless people.
Though the Jiang family was also an extremely powerful ancient family, in everyone's eyes, there was still a gap between them and the Jun family.
The Jun family, with the strength of a single clan, stood in opposition to the Immortal Court and was a source of wariness for foreign realms.
And Jun Xiaoyao was an even more incomparably brilliant name from the past.
Yet after a brief, deathly silence,
Gu Nü spoke coldly, "Jun Xiaoyao? A name that has already faded away."
"Perhaps he was once glorious, but that was only because my master had not yet emerged into the world."
"Had my master emerged earlier, how could Jun Xiaoyao ever have claimed the title of the undefeated?"
Gu Nü's admiration for her master, the Little Stone Emperor, ran all the way to her bones.
And at that very moment, a voice like celestial music, carrying an incomparably cold killing intent, slowly rang out.
"You, do you dare say that again?"
Under the gaze of countless eyes, a silhouette with hair like pale snow and a transcendent, peerless grace emerged from the depths of Yao Chi Holy Land and stepped forward.
Jiang Shengyi.
