Chapter 347: Promotion
Hearing this question, Jiang Lan remained calm.
Was it normal?
Actually, it was very normal because Kunlun was ahead of everyone else.
Many people had been making guesses, and when the Witchcloud Gathering came, many people had obtained the answer.
Although it was just an indirect guess, they all felt that Kunlun was ahead of everyone else.
All of the other factions were chasing after Kunlun.
Of course, no one dared to attack Kunlun.
They were already behind. If they attacked at this time, they might not just be behind, but…
They would be eliminated.
Without a Deity Position, it was roughly equivalent to being eliminated by a large force.
This was not what they wanted.
But the Dragon Race had also probed Kunlun for this reason.
They had used all sorts of methods, but the unyielding Kunlun did not react at all.
This was what Ao Ye said when he was drunk.
At that time, Jiang Lan still didn’t recognize Imperial Lord Xi He. He still didn’t know why the great factions were fighting.
When he knew about Imperial Lord Xi He and the existence of the Deity Positions.
He understood.
Kunlun was moving faster than anyone else.
He even felt like he himself could not catch up.
Of course, there was nothing wrong with the lead at the start. However, if Kunlun stopped moving forward, the others would eventually catch up.
Perhaps even surpassing Kunlun.
But from all these years of contact, Imperial Lord Xi He had never been caught up to.
Jiang Lan had no idea what he was doing.
He couldn’t even make a guess.
The difference in their strength was too great.
These people who were discussing the situation in the Grand Desolate World had no idea why Kunlun was so quiet.
They then discussed other things.
“Speaking of which, do you know that the Goddess has become an immortal?”
“So what if she has become an immortal?
Is there a problem?
However, I didn’t know what the Goddess looked like. I had never seen her before.
I’ve only heard about her from you all.”
“It doesn’t matter what the Goddess looks like. What’s important is that the Goddess has become an immortal and she can now fulfill the engagement.”
“Fulfill the engagement? What do you mean?”
“You don’t know? Actually, the Goddess already had an engagement long ago. The person she is engaged to is the Junior Brother of the Ninth Summit.”
Hearing this, Jiang Lan turned around and left, not continuing to listen.
Xiao Yu becoming an immortal had made people remember the engagement.
These few years, many people would probably be talking about him again.
Most of the discussions would be just criticizing him.
There was a possibility that someone would use this opportunity to let others slander the Ninth Summit.
When he heard this news, it would give him pressure.
In the subsequent tribulation, Jiang Lan might then not be able to withstand the pressure and fail.
So…
Doing so could easily destroy him.
Killing a person by killing his heart.
Sadly, those people would be disappointed. Ignoring the fact that he had become an immortal a long time ago, even if he hadn’t achieved immortality, he still wouldn’t take these things to heart.
Of course, if those people really dared to deliberately make a fuss about it.
It was time for the people from the Second Summit to deliver the list.
The one affected by his failure would be the Jade Pool.
Kunlun would not just idly sit by.
Unless the people who did so were not spies.
If so, it all depended on his own ability.
Would there be such people in Kunlun?
Definitely.
A lot.
But there should be more rational people.
…
When he returned to the Ninth Summit, the sky was already dark.
He went to many places and listened to the discussions of various groups of disciples.
The people of the Dragon Race no longer interfered in anything other than the Four Seas.
Some of the demons had also retreated, but they had no choice but to continue fighting after being beaten by Ba Country.
Ba Country was fearless and already had the advantage.
“It seems that after using the Deity Position, each and every one of them started to converge their powers.”
“The same goes for Kunlun.”
As for the exact reason, Jiang Lan was unable to obtain an answer.
It was best to advance as soon as possible.
He planned to continue cultivating and advance to the mid-stage Heaven Immortal Realm before the Netherworld Entrance brought him any problems.
This way, he would be able to remain calm in the face of danger.
In the Netherworld Cave.
Jiang Lan sat cross-legged and began refining his golden body.
The power of the Dao circulated in his body, and he stood between heaven and earth in his mind.
He seemed to have become a part of the world.
This world was the Dao he had comprehended.
However, he had not merged with it completely.
Doing so would easily cause a phenomenon to appear.
Time flowed and it was as if a thousand years had passed.
Jiang Lan stood in the world of Dao, feeling everything in his body.
He watched his flesh and blood being tempered.
When he saw the last part of his flesh being tempered and transformed, he felt a trace of pain.
His immortal power guided the great Dao, moving from his flesh to his meridians.
This was the process of advancement. If the transfer failed, it was equivalent to him failing his advancement.
The consequences were unpredictable.
Perhaps he would need to recuperate for a period of time. The subsequent tempering would also require him to pay a huge price.
He did not dare to be distracted.
Jiang Lan focused all his attention on the meridians, allowing them to accept the immortal power to guide the power of the great Dao over.
After a long time, a surge of energy began to flow from his flesh to his meridians.
The transfer was successful.
Boom!
A new power burst forth from his meridians.
The power of his golden body began to manifest.
He was now a mid-stage Heaven Immortal.
Jiang Lan opened his eyes.
He had spent nine years reaching the mid-stage Heaven Immortal Realm.
One of the reasons he had managed to do so was because during the past nine years, besides seeing Xiao Yu, he had never left the Ninth Summit.
He had now been in the sect for four hundred and seventy years.
He was now a mid-stage Heaven Immortal.
“Hu!”
He then let out a sigh of relief.
“Since I have managed to advance before the Netherworld’s Entrance erupts, it will be much easier later on.”
There was quite a gap between an early-stage Heaven Immortal and a mid-stage Heaven Immortal.
After reaching the mid-stage, one would begin to possess the power of the golden body. This was also the reason why one could become so powerful after attaining perfection.
It was much easier to deal with many things now.
Of course, there were still some things he could not deal with.
However, the strongest amongst those targeting him right now should not exceed that of a Heaven Immortal.
In fact, they should not even have strength higher than that of a True Immortal.
This way, he was much safer.
Of course, every time he attacked, he would not be arrogant.
A single mistake could lead to irreversible consequences.
He would maintain initial focus and focus on dealing with any enemy.
Even if it was just an enemy at the Qi Refinement Realm.
Such a person could not be underestimated either.
…
…
Boom!
Boom!!
Two figures in the Ice Cicada Forest were trying their best to avoid the attacks.
However, there was a lot of blood on their body.
“Could it be that you people from the Heavenly Human Race don’t have any motives by staying here? Why can’t we work together? ”
The two demons tried to probe as they dodged the attacks.
However, their response was still just powerful attacks.
Boom!
The power spread out, forcing the two demon True Immortals to dodge with all their might. If they were not careful, they might stay here forever.
“Could it be that the Heavenly Human Race aren’t worried about the attacks here being discovered?
There will always be people passing by, and there will always be people paying attention to this side.
It is true that Kunlun did not manage the surrounding areas, but with enemies lurking around, they will take action even if they do not want to. If this continues, it will not benefit either of us parties.”
The eagle-eyed man continued.
He had discovered the other party by accident.
He did not expect to be targeted and that the other party wanted to silence them.
It was impossible to understand what the other party was thinking.
He could not see any emotion in their eyes.
The person was like a puppet.
But it didn’t feel like it.
Boom!
The bombardment lasted for a moment. The two demons dodged one by one, but just when they dodged everything and thought they could escape.
They suddenly stopped.
It was because they discovered that the heavenly human had shockingly appeared before them.
“You people still have some value.”
