Cultivating Immortality, Starting from Childhood Sweethearts

"Ming-ge."

Xu Ming walked out of the courtyard and heard the voices of Li Han and the others.

They had been waiting at the entrance of the Xu residence since early in the morning.

Xu Ming smiled: "Here to see me off?"

"Of course."

Li Han said with a smile, "Today is the day Ming-ge heads to the Rootless Secret Realm, we definitely have to come and see you off."

"Brother Xu, I made some breakfast."

Hu Tao stepped forward and handed over a food box.

"Thanks."

Xu Ming smiled, "Let's go, I'll eat as we walk."

Xu Ming arrived at the entrance of the Princess's mansion, escorted by the group.

Wu Yanhuan was stunned when she saw her old friends, not expecting them to come and see her off.

Wu Yanhuan walked on the street with Xu Ming and the others, feeling like she was back a few years ago when they were on missions together.

The group sent Xu Ming and Wu Yanhuan to the entrance of the Imperial Palace, where they could no longer go any further.

Xu Ming and Wu Yanhuan cupped their fists in a salute to the three of them and entered the Imperial Palace.

At this time, the other eight Wu Kingdom disciples who had passed the selection had also arrived.

The Martial Emperor hosted a banquet to send off the ten of them.

"Open the gate!"

Before Chen Shi (7-9 AM), with the Martial Emperor's order, ten cultivators from the Supervising Heavenly Division walked out, chanting incantations and connecting with the Great Dao.

Immediately afterward, the Martial Emperor waved his hand, and the golden giant dragon coiling above the Imperial Palace crashed directly into a crack.

In an instant, a distorted door appeared in front of everyone.

"May you all promote the prestige of my Wu Kingdom! May the martial fortune prosper!"

The Martial Emperor raised his wine glass, his powerful voice echoing throughout the entire Imperial Palace.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Everyone shouted in unison, drinking the wine in their hands in one gulp!

In the imperial capital of the White Elephant Kingdom, Bai Libing, wearing a dragon robe, looked at the five young talents of the White Elephant Kingdom in the palace.

It was not only human cultivators who could participate in the Rootless Secret Realm, but also the demon race.

As for how the demon race's quotas were allocated, it was entirely up to the demon ancestor of the Southern Border Demon Kingdom to personally allocate the quotas.

This demon race elder had an extremely high seniority and an extremely high realm, and was respected by the vast majority of countries in the Southern Border Demon Kingdom.

However, this demon race elder had always turned a blind eye to the infighting in the Southern Border Demon Kingdom and had not stopped the mutual slaughter.

Some people rumored that the demon ancestor of the Southern Border Demon Kingdom had already passed away, and the demon ancestor's decrees from Mount Terminus were just his disciples impersonating his name.

There were also rumors that this demon ancestor had already reached the Great Circle of the Ascension Realm, and was only one step away from the legendary Lost Second Realm, and was still in seclusion, trying to take that final step.

Still others said that this demon ancestor had already entered the legendary Second Realm, but the Asian Saint of the Central Plains had also entered the Lost Second Realm, so neither of them had taken action.

But no matter what, no dynasty in the Southern Border Demon Kingdom dared to defy this demon ancestor's face, and no one dared to test whether this demon ancestor had already passed away.

Under normal circumstances, those who went to Mount Terminus to inquire about news were killed directly by his disciples before the demon ancestor even took action.

And this time, when the Rootless Secret Realm opened, what was passed down to the tens of thousands of large and small demon kingdoms in the Southern Border was not only the allocation of quotas for each Southern Border Demon Kingdom to go to the Rootless Secret Realm, but also an order—

Kill Yang Yang, the top of the Azure Cloud Rankings, and Xu Ming, the second on the Azure Cloud Rankings.

In fact, the Southern Border Demon Kingdom and the human race would subconsciously obliterate those geniuses at the top of the Azure Cloud Rankings in order to create a gap in the other side's talent pool.

After all, if these geniuses became ordinary people, that would be fine, but if these geniuses grew into towering trees, it would be really troublesome.

At that time, the cost of dealing with the other party would be hundreds or thousands of times higher.

However, over the years, Mount Terminus had never issued an order to deal with someone on the Azure Cloud Rankings.

From this, it could be seen that the demon ancestor might have窥视 (kuī shì - peeped at/spied on) the secrets of heaven and saw something.

If these two people were to grow up in the future, they might bring great trouble to the demon race's world!

"Go, come back alive."

Bai Libing, wearing the imperial robe of the White Elephant Kingdom, said to the five demon race disciples of the White Elephant Kingdom.

"Yes! Your Majesty! We will definitely return with the heads of Yang Yang and Xu Ming!"

The cultivators cupped their fists in a salute to Wu Yanhuan and turned to step into the distorted door.

Looking at the distorted door, Bai Libing clenched her fists tightly: "Xu Ming, don't die in the Rootless Secret Realm."

In Jubei City, on a mountain range in the north, this was originally just a primitive mountain range.

But in just one month, trees were cut down, tall buildings rose from the towering mountains, and large and small magic formations were being set up.

Disciples of the Mo family, soldiers and artisans of the Wu Kingdom, shuttled through this mountain range.

Although everything was still under construction.

But you would not doubt that in a year or two, this place would become a misty sect like a fairyland.

This place was the newly reborn Heavenly Profound Sect.

When Wang Xuan brought the disciples of the Heavenly Profound Sect to Jubei City, the officials of the Beiliang Prefecture of the Wu Kingdom chose a location for Wang Xuan to establish the sect, and even equipped the Heavenly Profound Sect with a lot of Mo family cultivators, artisans, and other laborers, as well as various building materials and magic formation materials.

Wang Xuan hardly had to do anything, and the Wu Kingdom sent her a "brand new" sect.

The Wu Kingdom's momentum was so great, and the preparations were so thorough, that Wang Xuan could not refuse even if she wanted to, so she could only accept this favor from the Wu Kingdom.

After the Heavenly Profound Sect was settled, Wang Xuan also sent four disciples to the Rootless Secret Realm.

"You must be careful when you go to the Rootless Secret Realm this time, and remember, you must not act rashly."

Wang Xuan said to the four of them.

"Master, don't worry."

Qin Qingwan smiled and said, "Although the Heavenly Profound Sect is not what it used to be, we are not bad either."

"It's good to come back alive."

Wang Xuan looked at her disciples, "Go, I'll wait for your good news."

"Yes!"

The four of them saluted and walked into the distorted door.

Watching the four most promising disciples of the Heavenly Profound Sect disappear before her eyes, Wang Xuan withdrew her gaze and flew towards the main peak.

And at the entrance of her courtyard, an official of the Wu Kingdom wearing official robes was waiting at the door.

"Sect Leader Wang Xuan, there is a letter for you."

Seeing Wang Xuan, the Wu Kingdom official cupped his fists in a salute.

"A letter? From whom?"

Wang Xuan asked.

The Wu Kingdom official smiled and said: "Sent from the imperial capital by our Wu Kingdom's Number One Scholar."

Wang Xuan was slightly stunned.

As she took the envelope, the Wu Kingdom official did not stay and took his leave.

Walking into the courtyard, Wang Xuan opened the envelope.

After reading the letter he sent word by word, Wang Xuan put down the paper, raised her head, looked at the clouds in the sky, and could not help but recall the appearance of that young man.

"I owe him another favor."
