Chapter 1129: Avatar of the Celestial Venerable

“The valuables in this Great Immortal Emperor’s secret treasure are worth at least one hundred thousand crystals of Xuanhuang aura.”

“Since you discovered this secret treasure, you deserve these ten crystals of Xuanhuang aura. Even if my main body finds out, he won’t have anything to say about it. Just accept them with peace of mind,” avatar number two said gently.

Li Xuandao felt the kind aura of avatar number two and became even more flustered.

He thought it necessary to personally explain to his Master about the intention behind avatar number two giving him the Xuanhuang aura last time.

“Master Number Two, with your current Golden Immortal Realm, you can avoid twenty percent of the taxes, but you still have to pay quite a bit,” Li Xuandao said, looking at the treasures in the Great Immortal Emperor’s secret treasure with some heartache.

These items would cost him dearly just to bring them out of the Wuwang Immortal Realm.

“Have you forgotten what my current identity is? I’m a formations master.”

“There was no need before; the cost to evade the Heavenly Way’s Will was too high, so tax avoidance wasn’t necessary.”

“But now it’s different. With so many crystals of Xuanhuang aura, it’s easy to set up a celestial formation that can conceal us from the Heavenly Way’s Will of the Immortal Realm. It’s just a bit costly, but it saves much more than the taxes we would pay,” avatar number two said confidently.

When he entered the Great Immortal Emperor’s secret treasure and saw everything clearly, he had already begun calculating how to bring these items out of the Wuwang Immortal Realm.

He could devise many formations to deceive the Heavenly Way’s Will of the Immortal Realm, but they were too costly, requiring massive amounts of Xuanhuang aura and precious materials.

Most importantly, such formations were one-time use; it wasn’t necessary before, but now it was.

“Let’s go. We’ll head to the Tianding Merchant Association branch to buy some things. Once I set up the formation, we’ll leave the Wuwang Immortal Realm and go home,” avatar number two said.

“Understood.”

At the Hidden Spirit Sect, Xu Fan looked up at another River of Time in the sky, unable to help but smile.

“The sect’s Golden Immortal era is about to begin!” Xu Fan said cheerfully.

“Grape, I have good news.”

“We found an innate true spirit in the Great Immortal Emperor’s secret treasure in the Wuwang Immortal Realm. Your clone said that devouring the innate true spirit will increase your logical computing power by at least ten times compared to your peak period,” Xu Fan said with a grin.

Grape became excited immediately. Although he had already recovered eighty percent of his logical computing power from his peak, he still felt a bit off.

Plans that previously required a long time to develop were halted due to reduced computing power.

Serving his Master felt noticeably more challenging compared to before.

These were the worries Grape had after recovering eighty percent of his logical computing power.

“Then Grape will be able to serve Master even better,” Grape replied happily.

“When we return, it’s time for your promotion.”

“In that secret treasure, there’s an embryo of a Primal Spiritual Treasure that’s perfect for you. Combining it with the essence of that innate true spirit will help you level up.”

Although refining a Primal Spiritual Treasure is troublesome, he felt confident that his clone could handle it.

Lying on his lounge chair, Xu Fan thought about the items in the Great Immortal Emperor’s secret treasure and couldn’t help but daydream about a wonderful future.

“With so much Xuanhuang aura, I might not be able to fully decipher the system, but I can at least unlock some of its features,” Xu Fan sensed within his body.

When he was in the Great Luo state, although he hadn’t decoded the system, he still made some gains.

He had a vague feeling that as long as he stayed in the Great Luo state long enough, he could unlock the outermost runes of the system.

With this thought in mind, Xu Fan looked up at the sky again.

Xu Fan noticed that the River of Time in the sky had disappeared and stood respectfully in the courtyard, waiting for his summons.

"Come here! It seems the Grand Dragon Feast of the Great Luo true dragon really had a great effect; of course, this is also thanks to your own efforts," Xu Fan said with satisfaction, looking at Xiang Yun, who had advanced to the Golden Immortal Realm.

A Postnatal Spiritual Treasure Immortal Sword appeared before Xiang Yun.

"There aren’t many Postnatal Spiritual Treasures in the sect right now, so take this Heavenly Array Sword back as the main sword for the sword formation. Once we have more Postnatal Spiritual Treasures in the sect, I’ll provide you with additional Immortal Swords," Xu Fan instructed.

"Disciple thanks the Grand Elder for the gift," Xiang Yun said as he performed a deep bow.

"Hurry back and solidify your Golden Immortal cultivation; the sect will need you to contribute later," Xu Fan said with a smile.

"Understood, Grand Elder." After expressing his gratitude, Xiang Yun left.

"There are more and more Golden Immortal disciples in the sect. Isn’t it time to give them something to do?" Xu Fan mused, stroking his chin.

As the Hidden Spirit Sect took control of the Dragon Immortal Palace, the entire sect quickly became famous in the Immortal Realm.

The academy established by the Hidden Spirit Sect Disciple in the human territory no longer hid in the shadows and openly displayed its status as an affiliated academy of the Hidden Spirit Sect.

This instantly attracted the attention of the entire Immortal Realm, with countless families and wandering cultivators sending their children to the affiliated academy, hoping their offspring would be noticed and accepted into the sect.

This also allowed those disciples running academies outside to earn substantial fortunes—now every Hidden Spirit Sect Disciple was wealthier than the last.

Given this situation, Xu Fan felt it was necessary for the disciples to have new aspirations.

"Grape, notify those who have advanced to the Golden Immortal Realm to solidify their cultivation before going out to investigate the surrounding Immortal Realm for me," Xu Fan said.

"Master, are there any specific requirements for investigating the surrounding Immortal Realm?" Grape inquired.

"Just find some tasks that match their Golden Immortal difficulty."

"Understood, Master."

Just as Xu Fan was relaxing, a place in the star region appeared to be in a desperate situation.

An avatar of the Great Being came from the outer realms into the Three Thousand Realms and checked its location before heading somewhere specific.

In the place of inheritance, the avatar of the Great Being observed recent events in the place of inheritance through the Reverse the River of Time.

"That thread of the Great Being’s essence was actually devoured by a true immortal."

"Interesting, truly interesting."

"Something must have happened that I am unaware of."

The avatar then began to fly towards the Wood Origin Immortal Realm based on the causes found in the River of Time.

At that moment, Xu Fan, who was lounging around, suddenly shivered.

After deducing the situation, Xu Fan’s expression turned pained.

"Grape, give me all the Xuanhuang aura from the treasury; I need to go to the star region," Xu Fan said.

"Understood," Grape said quickly.

A space celestial tool was teleported into Xu Fan’s hands.

Soon after, Xu Fan made his way to the star region.

"Master, bring Grape’s main body along; Grape can lend a hand when it matters," Grape suggested.

Xu Fan stood on the deck of a Star Ship, looking calmly ahead at the enormous star gate, his eyes flickering with countless scriptures, as if he was deducing something.

"No need, it’s just an avatar of a Great Being that covers the secrets of the Three Thousand Realms; dealing with him will be easy," Xu Fan said, watching the approaching star gate.
