Chapter 1081: Reaching Heaven in A Single Bound (1/2)

After bidding Qi Lianshan farewell, Pei Qiqi left for the Void Illusion Mountain Range.

Apparently, she had still not given up on looking for the Void Palace Sect.

She had thought that by joining the Void Spirit Society, their resourcefulness would allow her to solve the mystery of the disappearance of the Void Palace Sect, but she was wrong.

The Void Spirit Society had no clue where the Void Palace Sect from the Domain of the Falling Stars was now either.

Rumor had it that, as the overlord of the Realm of Split Void, the Void Palace Sect had found a spatial rift in the Void Illusion Mountain Range that led to a brand new realm that was wreathed in extremely rich spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth.

The Void Palace Sect had thus moved their whole sect to that mysterious realm, and had never returned.

Her parents had been disciples of the Void Palace Sect. She assumed that she would have to find them in order to get answers to her questions about her unique bloodline.

Before, her limited understanding of spatial power hadn’t allowed her to examine every single spatial rift in the Realm of Split Void, especially without that Heaven Nourished grade spatial treasure.

However, she had such an ability now.

Upon arriving in the Void Illusion Mountain Range, she started examining the spatial rifts one after another, looking for even the slightest clues.

Meanwhile, Nie Tian left for the Realm of a Hundred Battles.

In the Dong Clan in the Realm of a Hundred Battles...

As soon as Nie Tian appeared, everyone in the Dong Clan was astounded.

Now, many years had passed. Clanmaster Dong Wangling had advanced from the middle Soul realm to the late Soul realm, and was currently preparing for his breakthrough into the Void domain.

Given the Dong Clan’s profound historical connections to the Beast-controlling Sect in the Domain of Heaven’s Boundaries, many of the Dong Clan’s talented youngsters had been sent to the Beast-controlling Sect, where they could learn the more legitimate beast-controlling incantations, Dong Baijie being one of them.

However, as the clanmaster, Dong Wangling had chosen return to the Realm of a Hundred Battles to oversee clan affairs after learning a number of brand new incantations from the Beast-controlling Sect.

Dong Wangling seemed a bit nervous and overcautious to see Nie Tian. “What brought you here?”

He had been focused on deriving enlightenment from his newly-acquired incantations.

“Where’s Dong Li?” Nie Tian asked.

Qin Yan from the Water Moon Chamber of Commerce, Cao Qiushui from the Cao Clan, Qian Xin from the Pill Pavilion Sect, and a few other juniors were also surprised to see Nie Tian upon his arrival through a teleportation portal.

“Nie Tian!”

“Nie Tian is here!”

“Long time no see, Nie Tian!”

All of them were from the Realm of a Hundred Battles, and had fought alongside Nie Tian back in the day.

They had learned about Dong Li’s return, and had thus come to the Dong Clan to see her.

Dong Li had rarely returned to the Realm of a Hundred Battles these years since she had attached herself to Nie Tian, this strong backer. Instead, she had spent most of her time in the Domain of Heaven Python and the Domain of Heaven’s Boundaries, speaking for Nie Tian, helping him supervise the major sects, and managing resource distribution.

Her status had already risen far beyond the Dong Clan’s, which made it very hard for them to see her.

But now, not only had Dong Li returned to the Realm of a Hundred Battles, but so had Nie Tian, who they hadn’t seen in many years.

Nie Tian glance over his peers, who he had fought alongside growing up, and discovered that most of them were only at the early Profound realm, with a few at the Greater Heaven stage.

He and Dong Li, however, had already entered the Soul realm.

He thought about it, and quickly realized that it actually made sense. After all, as the clanmaster of the Dong Clan, Dong Wangling was only at the late Soul realm.

The fact that they had entered the Profound realm was already rather impressive.

As Profound realm cultivators, they hadn’t been qualified to join the operation in the three Demon realms. They had only learned about it from the powerful experts from their clans.

The reason why they had come to see Dong Li was because they were hoping to catch up with her and strengthen their relationship with her.

However, surprised upon seeing Nie Tian, they rapidly gathered to his side.

Nie Tian smiled. “Indeed. It’s been a long time.”

Without delay, Dong Wangling took Nie Tian to a dense forest in the mountains not far from the Dong Clan’s headquarters. The juniors followed along.

Nie Tian secretly unleashed his bloodline power to scan his surroundings. The tips of his eyebrows rose with surprise as he said, “There doesn’t seem to be any powerful spirit beasts in this area anymore.”

With a dry smile, Dong Wangling said, “Yeah. There were quite a few powerful seventh grade spirit beasts here the last time you visited. But you haven’t come here for quite some time, and we cleaned out those seventh grade spirit beasts long ago. Those suited for cultivation were shipped to the Beast-controlling Sect, where they were reared and gradually tamed.”

Nie Tian nodded.
