Central Domain, Rising Sun Immortal City.
At this moment, the vicinity of Rising Sun Immortal City is densely packed with warships, and the aura of various powerful figures intertwines.
The warships of Heavenly Splendor Hall, Qingyun Academy, and Beast Alliance have all arrived near Rising Sun Immortal City; only the warships of the Mysterious Moon Palace have yet to arrive.
The bodies of Star River Immortal Venerate, Xiyue Immortal Venerable, and Immortal Venerable Wan Jie are all suspended above their respective warships.
Of course, they did not come with their main bodies, but rather with clones.
At this moment, a voice echoed in the sky above Rising Sun Immortal City, "Yunmeng Palace Master has arrived!"
As the voice fell, warships bearing the flags of the Mysterious Moon Palace sailed toward Rising Sun Immortal City from afar.
The leading warship was massive, with countless rooms aboard it, akin to a palace floating in the sky.
Soon, the warships of the Mysterious Moon Palace joined with those of the three major forces.
At this moment, Star River Immortal Venerate spoke from high up, "Yunmeng Palace Master, I thought you wouldn't come."
Yunmeng Immortal Venerable said expressionlessly, "I indeed hadn't planned to participate in this meaningless negotiation."
Star River Immortal Venerate replied, "Meaningless? So, Yunmeng Palace Master truly intends to monopolize the fortune on Lu Chen?"
Yunmeng Immortal Venerable did not immediately respond. She glanced at Qingyun Academy's Dean, Immortal Venerable Wan Jie, and then shifted her gaze to Beast Alliance's Alliance Hierarch, Xiyue Immortal Venerable.
Feeling that the divine soul auras of the three were relatively weak, she knew they had only sent clones, and she was almost certain they weren't really planning to start a war with the Mysterious Moon Palace; no wonder their ancestor advised her not to worry.
Yunmeng Immortal Venerable then said, "Do you plan to discuss matters here?"
Upon hearing this, the bodies of the three, Star River Immortal Venerate, immediately flew into the sky, and the next moment, Yunmeng Immortal Venerable also vanished on the spot, reappearing ten thousand meters high.
Following that, the three simultaneously used immortal power, and in the next moment, an isolation array that blocked all probing appeared in the sky.
Once the isolation array was set up, Immortal Venerable Wan Jie spoke, "Yunmeng Palace Master, I have no interest in other fortunes on Lu Chen; what I want is that formation capable of sealing mysterious creatures."
Upon hearing this, Star River Immortal Venerate's eyebrows slightly furrowed. He wanted more than just the formation to seal mysterious creatures. Why did Immortal Venerable Wan Jie make such a significant concession right away? After all, Lu Chen might have the fortune to become an emperor.
Immortal Venerable Wan Jie did not want to become an emperor, but he did.
While Star River Immortal Venerate was distracted, Xiyue Immortal Venerable's cool voice resounded in the sky, "I, like Immortal Venerable Wan Jie, most desire that sealing formation. If the Mysterious Moon Palace is willing to hand over that Holy Rank Sealing Array, our Beast Alliance will withdraw our troops immediately."
Seeing Xiyue Immortal Venerable say this, Star River Immortal Venerate's face completely darkened. He had managed to bring Yunmeng Immortal Venerable to negotiate, yet the two immediately revealed the bottom line of the negotiation.
Their initial plan was that even if they couldn't obtain Lu Chen, they must get the Holy Rank Sealing Array from him, as it was crucial for them in sealing mysterious creatures.
As for other fortunes, they could slowly pressure the Mysterious Moon Palace. But the moment Immortal Venerable Wan Jie and Xiyue Immortal Venerable showed their cards, acting as if they only wanted the Holy Rank Sealing Array, what was left to negotiate?
Upon hearing the two's words, Yunmeng Immortal Venerable was also surprised. She initially thought the three forces were looking for an excuse to attack the Mysterious Moon Palace, but now it seemed they were indeed targeting Lu Chen, more precisely, targeting the Holy Rank Sealing Array he possessed for mysterious creatures.
If that was the case, she might as well have Lu Chen hand over that Holy Rank Sealing Array to them. Incidentally, she had brought Lu Chen's clone with her this time.
Just as Yunmeng Immortal Venerable was thinking this, her mind froze, suddenly recalling something.
Their ancestor said that calamity could be beneficial for her. If she gave the Holy Rank Sealing Array to the other forces and they used it to reinforce the seals, thereby preventing the invasion of mysterious creatures into the Tianyan Immortal Domain, wouldn't that thwart their ancestor's plans, preventing him from living a second life?
Thinking of this, a trace of worry appeared on Yunmeng Immortal Venerable's face.
Honestly, she was unsure what to do now. As Immortal Emperor Youlan was their ancestor, they naturally had to heed their ancestor's words.
However, logic told her that they shouldn't proceed this way. If mysterious creatures truly invaded the Tianyan Immortal Domain, it would cause immense devastation, possibly eventually sparing not even the Mysterious Moon Palace.
Seeing Yunmeng Immortal Venerable silent, Xiyue Immortal Venerable continued, "Yunmeng Palace Master, won't you even disclose the Holy Rank Sealing Array to us?"
"Could it be the Mysterious Moon Palace is already under the control of mysterious creatures?"
Upon hearing this, Yunmeng Immortal Venerable snapped back to reality, her brows furrowed tightly. She had already suspected the three forces might slander them in such a manner.
However, truth be told, deep down Yunmeng Immortal Venerable was slightly dubious, wishing to discern whether their ancestor had been corrupted by mysterious power, gradually transforming into a mysterious creature; otherwise, why would she anticipate calamity?
At this moment, Yunmeng Immortal Venerable said, "Lu Chen's main body is not in the Mysterious Moon Palace."
Star River Immortal Venerate immediately interjected, "Impossible."
"Yunmeng Palace Master, you..."
Star River Immortal Venerate wanted to continue speaking but was interrupted by Yunmeng Immortal Venerable, "I can swear by the Heavenly Dao that I truly don't know where Lu Chen's main body is."
This...
The three, Star River Immortal Venerate included, were initially stunned, then exchanged glances.
Yunmeng Immortal Venerable had spoken to this extent, questioning if Lu Chen's main body was genuinely not in the Mysterious Moon Palace?
Seeing the three silent, Yunmeng Immortal Venerable continued, "Moreover, Lu Chen's clone is unique, akin to a puppet, which he can abandon anytime. Even if the clone dies, it won't affect him, so it's nearly impossible to extract anything from his clone."
"Though Lu Chen is now a disciple of the Mysterious Moon Palace, the palace cannot truly decide his fate."
"If you genuinely wish to obtain anything from Lu Chen, the most appropriate action is to find Lu Chen directly, rather than cause trouble for the Mysterious Moon Palace."
Upon hearing this from Yunmeng Immortal Venerable, the three's expressions turned a few degrees more serious; Yunmeng Immortal Venerable's tone was not deceiving them.
If things were indeed as Yunmeng Immortal Venerable stated, it would be both advantageous and troublesome.
Since Yunmeng Immortal Venerable indicated that the Mysterious Moon Palace couldn't decide Lu Chen's fate, once they found Lu Chen's main body, they could directly soul search him, avoiding conflict with the Mysterious Moon Palace.
But the inconvenience lay in their complete unawareness of where Lu Chen's main body was.
Originally, their three forces pressured the Mysterious Moon Palace, thinking Lu Chen's main body was there, but now Yunmeng Immortal Venerable informed them that Lu Chen within the Mysterious Moon Palace was also a clone; it was all in vain.
