Chapter 1311: An Untroubled Land (1/2)

Jing Feiyang from the Divine Seal Sect, Qu Mingde from the Golden Vast Sect, Quan Zixuan from the Thousandsword Mountain Sect, Master Blood Spirit, and Xie Qian had recently stayed in the Realm of Maelstrom.

Simply too many powerful experts from various domains had traveled to the Realm of Maelstrom recently. The visitor flow was scary.

Jing Feiyang and the others were afraid that conflicts would break out, and thus stayed to practice cultivation while keeping an eye on things.

All of a sudden, the Realm of Maelstrom seemed to become an untroubled sacred land of the human domains.

The rumors of Nie Tian being a ‘Godmaker’ was the main reason for this, along with his reputation, which had been climbing after his deeds in the Domain of Spirit Sea, the Domain of Dark Marsh, and the Domain of Jade Heaven.

His reputation reached the peak after what had happened at the Realm of Fragmentary Star.

Many had been there to witness him sealing the toxic miasma released by Gupi with a wondrous sealing magic.

Gupi had somehow left the Realm of Fragmentary Star after madly massacring numerous Void and Saint domain experts, along with powerful experts from the Remote Beginning Heavenly Sect and the Shadow Society. Many believed the credit should go to Nie Tian and his master, Wu Ji.

The explanation given by the Void Spirit Society, the Five Elements Sect, and the Heaven Span Pavilion was that Wu Ji had arrived and scared Gupi off.

They said that Wu Ji was currently seeking new breakthroughs in his cultivation in one of the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace’s secret cultivation rooms in the Realm of Fragmentary Star.

The fact that he was in secluded cultivation prevented him from coming out to seal Gupi, who was causing trouble everywhere.

Ji Yuanquan and the others had concealed the truth about Wu Ji.

As far as others were concerned, Nie Tian and Wu Ji, this disciple-master pair, had proven their unique abilities as early as the upheaval in the Shatter Battlefield. Now, they were winning even more acknowledgment.

Because of this, the Realm of Maelstrom, which belonged to Nie Tian and was a hub that connected to various domains, naturally became the focus of everyone’s attention.

Numerous Qi warriors from various sects and clans traveled countless miles to the Realm of Maelstrom.

Some came to befriend Nie Tian, hoping that they would receive his help when they made their attempts to enter the God domain, while others came out of fear of Gupi. Their realms bordered those that had been attacked by it, and they wanted to find a place that was safe.

Naturally, Nie Tian’s Realm of Maelstrom came to mind.

WHOOSH!

In the Golden Vast Sect’s territory, three people appeared in the large-scale teleportation portal, to which Zhao Shanling had recently made changes.

In a place not far from the teleportation portal, a group of seven people who were walking away after arriving caught sight of Ling Bingyun, Han Qiong, and Kong Shuangjing. “Isn’t this the Ice Soul Divine Sect?”

Ling Bingyun took an icy glance at the leader of the seven and frowned slightly. “Zhang Qiling!”

Zhang Qiling curled his lips and said with a cold smile, “This is odd. You started a fight with Nie Tian in the Domain of Primal Yang. If I remember correctly, Nie Tian even said that he’d visit your sect to settle this matter with you. It’s just that he’s been busy with various things after that, and hasn’t had a chance to go find you in the Domain of Frigid Frost. You should feel lucky about that. Why come to the Realm of Maelstrom all of a sudden?”

Han Qiong and Kong Shuangjing looked embarrassed.

“That’s between me and him. It’s none of your business,” Ling Bingyun said coldly.

Zhang Qiling from the Heavenly Spirit Sect had long since learned about her temperament. Therefore, instead of getting angry, he laughed, and walked away with the elders of his sect.

As he walked, he said, “Times have changed. That Son of the Stars of the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace has already become a strong force. Even though his own cultivation base isn’t very high at the moment, he can’t be underestimated. Remember: when you’re in the Realm of Maelstrom, behave yourselves and refrain from offending anyone. Don’t think too much of yourselves, as certain people do.

“Also, try to communicate more with Nie Tian’s subordinates. There are a few important people you need to remember, such as Dong Li. She’s...”

The group of people from the Heavenly Spirit Sect gradually disappeared into the distance.

Ling Bingyun’s expression had never been grimmer.

Zhang Qiling had clearly been referring to her testing Nie Tian’s battle prowess with her cold power in the Domain of Primal Yang, causing him to burst into a flaming rage and hold a grudge against the Ice Soul Divine Sect.

Han Qiong, however, narrowed his eyes. Fine sparkling wisps could be seen jumping in the depths of his eyes.

A few seconds later, he gasped with astonishment and exclaimed, “I can’t believe a small place like the Realm of Maelstrom is filled with crouching tigers and hidden dragons. I’m sensing dozens of Saint domain experts! Thirteen of them are at the late Saint domain like Zhang Qiling!”

Ling Bingyun was flabbergasted. “How come there are so many experts here?”

Han Qiong hesitated briefly before adding, “There are also a few hidden auras that are so profound that even I find them unfathomable. I suspect they belong to God domain experts! Perhaps Yu Suying, Mo Qianfan, and possibly other God domain experts, have finished accounting for their sect affairs and returned to the Realm of Maelstrom. Perhaps they’re afraid for the Realm of Maelstrom and that the Jade Heaven Sect will seek retaliation.”

Kong Shuangjing’s expression flickered. “God domain experts!”

Ling Bingyun’s expression grew even grimmer.

She had assumed that given the Ice Soul Divine Sect’s long history and her status, she might be able to settle this matter with Nie Tian in a face-saving manner.

Now, after hearing that several God domain experts and more than a dozen late Saint domain experts like her were currently in the Realm of Maelstrom, she lost more than half of her confidence.

The three of them then left the teleportation portal to see Qu Mingde from the Golden Vast Sect and express their intentions.

They were here to see Nie Tian.

Qu Mingde sat in a tall seat with his arms and legs widespread. Ignoring Han Qiong’s flattering smile, he said in a nonchalant manner, “Sorry, our master isn’t in the Realm of Maelstrom at the moment. He’s in secluded cultivation, and I’m not at liberty to disclose the time when he’ll finish and come back to you.
