"Wait a second. I thought all cultivators in the Nine Heaven must abide by the rules of each heaven." Feng Yuxiang suddenly spoke.
"For example, the limit of cultivation in this world is the peak Spirit King. If someone who doesn't belong in this world appears, they would invoke Heavenly Tribulation. Will you be fine down here with your cultivation?"
Dong Ye nodded, "Only mortals abide by that rule. Immortals like me can ignore such a rule and come down here whenever we want. Even if we invoke a Heavenly Tribulation, it won't be strong enough to harm us. Though, it's a pain in the ass to come down here because we have to enter through the long route, so most of us won't bother unless absolutely necessary."
"Also, I am currently masking my presence, so the heavens don't even know I am here, and as long as I don't do anything crazy, it will remain that way. I am more worried about the Celestial Emperor than any Heavenly Tribulation because the Young Master won't be able to fight them at his current state."
"What's the situation with me and the Celestial—" Yuan halted his sentence midway.
"Never mind. I hope the Nameless Emperor's Tomb will have all of the answers."
Sometime later, Dong Ye's eyebrows suddenly twitched, and he spoke with a dejected face, "It's truly regrettable that I can only spend such a short time with you after spending so much time apart, but I must leave now, Young Master. Some people from the upper heavens have just arrived in this world, and to minimize the chances of your true identity being known, I must disappear. However, even though I won't be by your side, I will always be watching over you. If you are ever in deep trouble, you know how to contact me."
"But before I go, I must apologize to you, Young Master. There is so much that I want to say to you— to tell you, but I truly don't dare to mess with your fate."
Yuan shook his head, "Don't worry about it. I understand your feelings, and to be honest, I like it this way even if it's a little more inconvenient for me. My past, my purpose, and my goals… I will unveil them as I follow my own path."
After giving Yuan a slight nod, Dong Ye dissipated into thin air like smoke.
"An Immortal who has reached near the peak of cultivation… Who could've imagined that such a powerful individual would be willing to serve someone." Yuan mumbled out loud after Dong Ye disappeared.
"That's just how amazing your existence is, Young Master." Feng Yuxiang chuckled.
"Don't flatter me." He shook his head.
Meanwhile, somewhere within the Third Heaven, a large hole appeared in the sky moments before a group of individuals came out of it.
There were 21 people in this group, and all of them had the cultivation of a peak Spirit King, but the aura they emitted far surpassed what someone at their cultivation base could ever achieve.
"Fuck, the spiritual energy in this place is so trash. It feels like I am breathing in dust with every single breath." One of them immediately complained after taking his first breath.
"How do people live in such an environment?"
"Let's hurry and kill that criminal and get the hell out of here as soon as possible."
Most of these people agreed with the sentiment. However, one couldn't completely blame them for their behavior. The spiritual energy in the upper heavens was countless times purer than the ones down here, and as cultivators, they have reached the level where they don't need to breathe in air to live, just spiritual energy.
These people have lived their entire life thinking that their spiritual energy was the standard, so it wouldn't be weird for them to have such a strong reaction after suddenly being exposed to something much worse.
This made them wonder if the people from the upper heavens had forgotten to notify the Seven Legacy Families. ƒгeewёbnovel.com
