Chapter 248: The Lingwei Immortal Domain
"Grandmaster Lan, the cultivators of our Great Profound Universe are willing to join the Great Desolate..."
The anxious voice of Wei Xiying echoed from within the entrapment and killing array.
However, before he could finish his sentence, a muffled groan was heard, and his voice vanished without a trace.
It was clear that Gu Feihe had killed him.
With the deaths of the two Immortal Kings of the Great Profound Universe Cultivator Alliance, the onlookers knew that the alliance was finished.
While there were still cultivators from the Great Profound Universe, without these two Immortal Kings, they would likely be weaker than even the former Great Desolate Universe cultivators.
Whether the Great Desolate Immortal Sect would exterminate the remaining Great Profound Universe cultivators depended on their next move.
If they chose to annihilate them, they could simply issue a mission to hunt down the remaining cultivators.
The blood mist within the killing array gradually thinned, and after an hour, the array fell completely silent.
"Grandmaster, we have not lost a single person and have wiped out the Great Profound Cultivator Alliance," Gu Feihe reported, bringing several Great Luo Golden Immortals with him.
His voice was filled with excitement, joy, and a touch of感慨.
The Great Desolate Immortal Sect had been fighting the Great Profound Cultivator Alliance for countless years, almost since the formation of the Five Realms Immortal World.
They had been forced to make concessions time and time again.
Yet today, with just over ten people, they had completely annihilated the entire 100,000-strong army of the Great Profound Universe Cultivator Alliance.
Lan Xiaobu also breathed a sigh of relief.
This victory was due to the enemy falling into his sixth-grade killing array.
If they hadn't entered the array, or if he hadn't yet reached the level of a sixth-grade Grand Array Master...
Lan Xiaobu sighed.
If even one of these conditions had been missing, he might not have been able to kill Zuo Yurong.
Zuo Yurong's strength was too formidable.
If he hadn't been killed, the battles with the Great Profound Cultivator Alliance would have dragged on for a long time.
Fortunately, this battle had finally brought peace.
While it had an element of luck, it also served as a warning to others not to bully the Great Desolate Immortal Sect lightly.
"There are people watching from outside. Judging by their attire, they are likely from the Tianhong Cosmic Alliance and the Guhuang Cosmic Alliance. Let's wait a bit before going out. I need to tidy up first," Lan Xiaobu said.
With that, he grabbed a handful of array flags and tossed them down, quickly setting up a simple fire-gathering array.
With a wave of his hand, he collected tens of thousands of storage rings.
The fire-gathering array activated, and flames swept through the entire sixth-grade immortal array.
When Lan Xiaobu retrieved the array flags, the interconnected sixth-grade immortal arrays disappeared, and the gray space returned to normal.
The black ashes on the ground were swept away by the wind, vanishing without a trace.
The 100,000-strong army of the Great Profound Universe cultivators who had entered the sixth-grade immortal array had seemingly disappeared into thin air.
"Haha, congratulations, Grandmaster Lan!" A loud voice rang out as a medium-built Immortal King approached, clasping his fists in a friendly manner.
Before Lan Xiaobu could respond, another voice chimed in, "Grandmaster Lan, this battle has shaken the entire Lingwei Immortal Domain. The Great Desolate Immortal Sect is destined to become a major power."
"The Lingwei Immortal Domain?" Lan Xiaobu was momentarily puzzled.
The speaker was also an Immortal King, with sharp eyes and a long black beard.
Gu Feihe quickly stepped forward and said, "Gu Feihe greets Brother Huo and Brother Sha... Grandmaster, let me introduce you. This is Huo Lan, the leader of the Guhuang Cosmic Alliance. And this is Sha Yunshao, the leader of the Tianhong Cosmic Alliance. Both are formidable figures."
Lan Xiaobu finally understood.
The medium-built man was Huo Lan from the Guhuang Cosmic Alliance, and the black-bearded man was Sha Yunshao from the Tianhong Cosmic Alliance.
He quickly clasped his fists in return, "Lan Xiaobu of the Great Desolate Immortal Sect greets both of you. May I ask, Brother Sha, what is the meaning of the Lingwei Immortal Domain?"
Although Lan Xiaobu's cultivation was far inferior to these two, as the leader of the Great Desolate Immortal Sect and the highest-ranking figure among the Great Desolate Universe cultivators, he naturally wouldn't address them as seniors.
Sha Yunshao laughed and said, "It's no wonder Grandmaster Lan doesn't know. Not long ago, a stone tablet was discovered in the largest secret realm of our Immortal Domain. The tablet bore two characters: 'Lingwei.' Since the Five Realms Immortal World hasn't fully merged, it has divided into five major Immortal Domains. We have named this one the Lingwei Immortal Domain."
"That's right," Huo Lan chimed in, then clasped his fists and said, "Grandmaster Lan, the Star Fortress Secret Realm is about to open. Previously, it was occupied by the Great Profound Cultivator Alliance. Now that the alliance has been wiped out, how about Grandmaster Lan taking over their position and guarding the secret realm until it opens in ten years?"
Lan Xiaobu smiled slightly, "I was thinking the same. I heard that the Star Fortress Secret Realm contains the Kingly Dao Immortal Fruit. I wonder who discovered such a valuable secret realm. It will ensure that our Lingwei Immortal Domain doesn't suffer a shortage of Immortal Kings in the future."
This was a rhetorical question, and both Huo Lan and Sha Yunshao chuckled awkwardly.
Before they could respond, Gu Feihe interjected, "Grandmaster, this secret realm was originally discovered by our Great Desolate Universe cultivators, but it was forcibly taken by the Great Profound cultivators."
Huo Lan and Sha Yunshao remained silent.
This was a sensitive topic, and no matter how strong the Great Desolate Immortal Sect's array formations were, they wouldn't give up the Star Fortress Secret Realm.
Seeing Lan Xiaobu frown slightly, Huo Lan knew he had to say something.
If Lan Xiaobu intended to reclaim the Star Fortress Secret Realm, they would have no choice but to fight.
No matter how strong the Great Desolate Immortal Sect's array formations were, they couldn't let the Guhuang Cosmic Alliance give up this secret realm.
Sha Yunshao shared the same thoughts.
If Lan Xiaobu wanted to take action, he would have to do the same.
Giving up such a secret realm would be suicidal.
Huo Lan took out a jade slip and handed it to Lan Xiaobu, "Grandmaster Lan, this is the result of our previous negotiations. The Star Fortress Secret Realm will open in ten years, and then every thousand years after that. Each time it opens, entry will be determined through a selection process..."
Lan Xiaobu took the jade slip and scanned it with his divine sense.
Then he said, "Leader Huo, Leader Sha, I have a modest proposal. Please consider it."
Huo Lan replied seriously, "Grandmaster Lan, please speak. The Star Fortress Secret Realm belongs to everyone, and we will certainly give your suggestion serious consideration."
His meaning was clear: the Star Fortress Secret Realm was a shared resource, and no one could monopolize it.
Lan Xiaobu spoke slowly, "Leaders Huo and Sha, I believe the Star Fortress Secret Realm should belong to the entire Five Realms Immortal World. When it opens in ten years, let's set a selection standard. Anyone who meets the standard can enter the secret realm. What do you think?"
Both Huo Lan and Sha Yunshao were stunned.
They had expected Lan Xiaobu to either reclaim the secret realm or demand more spots for Great Desolate Universe cultivators.
They hadn't anticipated that he would propose such a requirement.
Lan Xiaobu continued, "The Five Realms Immortal World hasn't fully merged, and its rules are incomplete. I've heard that the highest cultivation level in the Lingwei Immortal Domain is only at the Immortal King level. As for the other Immortal Domains, we haven't visited them, but I suspect their rules aren't much higher than ours. This means that in the future, there won't be many powerful figures in the Five Realms Immortal World. Both of you know that the Five Realms Immortal World was formed by the merging of five universes. Let me ask you, before the five universes merged, did you know of any other universes besides the one you lived in?"
Huo Lan and Sha Yunshao remained silent.
They clearly hadn't known.
Before the merger, they had only been aware of their own universes.
Lan Xiaobu sighed, "In the vastness of existence, who knows how many Five Realms Immortal Worlds there are, or how many cultivation universes like the ones we came from? Who can say that in the future, cultivators from these universes won't find the Five Realms Immortal World? If they do, and our Five Realms Immortal World has few powerful figures, do you think it can survive? To give a closer example, we Great Desolate Universe cultivators are part of the Five Realms Immortal World, yet the Great Profound Cultivator Alliance wanted to exterminate us. If the Great Profound Universe cultivators were replaced by cultivators from a universe unrelated to the Five Realms Immortal World, the outcome would be predictable."
Lan Xiaobu had established the Great Desolate Immortal Sect to find a safe haven and gather the fortune of the Immortal World.
As his array formation skills improved, he had gathered a group of powerful allies.
Given this, why would he allow the Five Realms Immortal World to descend into chaos?
At his current Golden Immortal level, this was all he could say.
Once he reached the Immortal King level, he would definitely establish a set of immortal rules for the Five Realms Immortal World.
Both Huo Lan and Sha Yunshao were impressed by Lan Xiaobu's foresight.
In truth, his proposal didn't cost them much.
The Five Realms Immortal World only had cultivators from five universes.
With the Great Profound Cultivator Alliance gone, only the Taihan Universe remained.
The Taihan Universe cultivators rarely engaged in conflicts and hadn't formed any alliances.
Even if they followed Lan Xiaobu's proposal, it wouldn't significantly increase the number of participants.
With this in mind, both Huo Lan and Sha Yunshao said, "Grandmaster Lan's vision is indeed far-reaching. In that case, when the secret realm opens in ten years, we will base the selection on all cultivators of the Five Realms Immortal World."
...
After Lan Xiaobu and his forces annihilated the Great Profound Cultivator Alliance, Kong Zhengxing's army had yet to arrive.
Lan Xiaobu left a few people to guard the Star Fortress Secret Realm and sent Wen Lun, You Yihe, and Kong Zhengxing with the Mubei cultivator army to eradicate the Great Yin Immortal Sect.
Gu Feihe led a group to take over the various secret realms and ruins previously occupied by the Great Profound Cultivator Alliance.
Developing the Lingwei Immortal Domain didn't mean leaving the remnants of the Great Profound Cultivator Alliance or the forces that had invaded Mubei Great Immortal City.
Lan Xiaobu wouldn't issue missions to hunt down the remaining Great Profound cultivators, but what belonged to the Great Desolate Immortal Sect would not be given up.
Within a few months, the entire Lingwei Immortal Domain knew one thing: the Great Desolate Immortal Sect had annihilated the Great Profound Cultivator Alliance.
The Great Profound Cultivator Alliance had completely disappeared from the Lingwei Immortal Domain, and the Great Desolate Immortal Sect, along with the Tianhong Cosmic Alliance and the Guhuang Cosmic Alliance, now jointly occupied the Star Fortress Secret Realm.
At the suggestion of Grandmaster Lan Xiaobu, when the Star Fortress Secret Realm opened in ten years, it wouldn't be limited to cultivators from the Great Desolate, Tianhong, and Guhuang universes.
Instead, it would be open to all cultivators of the Five Realms Immortal World.
In other words, anyone would have the opportunity to enter the Star Fortress Secret Realm.
This news thrilled everyone in the Five Realms Immortal World and greatly boosted Lan Xiaobu's reputation.
