"What does this mean?" Chu Zheng raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised. "I’ll go with you. After we make our move, once the timing is right, I’ll immediately send a communication to the two Immortal Ancestors for assistance, giving them no time to discuss cooperation, only making them temporarily join forces rather than kick us when we’re down." Yun Tianji declared firmly, "Consider it repaying the favor for you saving my life in the Heaven Burial Palace. This time, I’ll stake my life to accompany you on this journey." In haste, the two Immortal Ancestors won’t have much time to consider; the threat of the immortal-banishing rune leaking will be greatly magnified. Combined with his life, and the Heavenly Fate he possesses, it’s enough to force the Immortal Ancestors to make a decision. Even though he might face punishment afterward, he accepted that. Yun Tianji’s expression was slightly solemn, clearly having made up his mind. He didn’t even ask Chu Zheng what he wanted the Heavenly Mirror for, driven purely by youthful vigor and confidence in his judgment. Since they decided to do it, they must carry it through to the end, regardless of the potential earth-shattering consequences afterward. Moreover, if the situation really becomes chaotic, it might actually benefit him more, given that he bears the Heavenly Destiny True Spirit and needs to gain advantages amidst chaos. With the Heavenly Destiny True Spirit within him, he always has a fallback, no matter the circumstances. He pondered for a while and then shifted the conversation, "However, just the two of us is too weak, and our chances of success are not high. We need another strong ally." "Who?" Chu Zheng furrowed his brows slightly, without hesitation, "Not Xue Qing." "Of course not Xue Qing," Yun Tianji shook his head slightly, a smile tugging at his lips, "It’s Jun Huang, he’s been wanting to meet you for a long time." Fresh chapters posted on 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭•𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮•𝘯𝘦𝘵 Chu Zheng immediately understood Yun Tianji’s intention. Jun Huang’s own combat power might not be pivotal, but what’s crucial is the Ancestor of Martial Arts behind him, Sun-Eroding Cry. If they could deceive Jun Huang into joining them, once in danger, Sun-Eroding Cry would certainly not stand idly by for emotional and logical reasons. Undoubtedly, that would be an extremely strong insurance. But after contemplating for a moment, Chu Zheng still shook his head slightly, "He doesn’t have a reason to help me." After all, the two were practically strangers; Jun Huang wouldn’t risk himself to help. "Then give him a reason to help you," Yun Tianji’s eyes flickered, as if he had a plan, immediately taking out a Communication Jade Talisman, branding a message on it, and then sending it out. In the Martial Pavilion Ancestral Land, within a Great Realm. A figure sat cross-legged atop the mountain, with Blood Qi around him like a dragon. The Martial Arts True Intent congealed into tangible runes floating around him. Suddenly, the man sensed something, opened his eyes, and received a communication. After reading the message, Jun Huang’s expression slightly changed, a hint of surprise flashing through his eyes. He swiftly wrapped up his cultivation, rushed out of the cave, and transformed into a scarlet rainbow, racing into the cosmic expanse, heading towards the coordinates Yun Tianji provided. Soon, he traversed the endless cosmos and arrived in the desolate space where Chu Zheng and Yun Tianji were located. "Daoist Jun Huang, long time no see." Yun Tianji greeted with a smile, as if old friends reuniting. Jun Huang first cupped his hands in a return salute, then immediately locked his gaze on Chu Zheng, whose depth he couldn’t discern, his brow slightly furrowed, scrutinizing, "You... are Zheng Chu?" Although he had never met Chu Zheng, he instantly made the judgment. Chu Zheng assessed the man in front of him, sensing the immense Blood Qi and sharp Martial force within him, and nodded slightly: Jun Huang took a deep breath, suppressing the thoughts in his heart, and raised his hand. In his palm, Blood Qi and Divine Sense surged, swiftly condensing into a vivid image of a young girl. The girl looked youthful, with a sweet smile and clear eyes, lifelike in detail. "I ask, Daoist friend, in the Heaven Burial Palace, have you seen my little sister Jun Yixue?" His voice carried an almost imperceptible tremble and anticipation. Chu Zheng glanced over the blood image, his eyes showing no fluctuation, and shook his head slightly, his tone calm: "I have no impression of her." He wasn’t lying, as too many living creatures had died by his hand in the Heaven Burial Palace—Immortals, Ancient Clans, Mythical Beasts... just like mowing grass; he couldn’t possibly remember all their faces and names. The likelihood that Jun Yixue died by his hand was not small, but he certainly couldn’t mention that now. Otherwise, it would immediately become a situation of relentless hostility, with the plan failing before it even began. Jun Huang’s face tensed, a flicker of disappointment flashed in his eyes, and the blood image in his palm dissipated. He turned to Yun Tianji, his tone calm: "What is this urgent matter you have summoned me for, Yun Daoist friend?" "We wish to help you, while also requesting a favor from you." Yun Tianji nodded, his expression becoming serious, "I know you’ve been tirelessly searching for news about your sister over the years, Jun Huang Daoist friend. Today, Daoist Zheng Chu approached me, wishing to obtain the Heavenly Mirror, the Star Moon Ancient Clan’s treasure, and asked for my help. I immediately thought of you." "The Heavenly Mirror?" Jun Huang’s gaze tightened. "Precisely," Yun Tianji affirmed, "The Heavenly Mirror of the Star Moon Ancient Clan is infinitely wondrous and profoundly mysterious. It is rumored to have the ability to peer into Space-Time Fragments and reflect past and present lives. If we attain this mirror and use myself and Daoist Zheng Chu as intermediaries, perhaps we can recreate some scene fragments from the final moments of the Heaven Burial Palace. Thus, you should be able to obtain accurate clues regarding your sister." Jun Huang was momentarily hesitant, his heart involuntarily picked up speed. But this proposal was too sudden and shocking; he vaguely felt something was amiss: "The Heavenly Mirror is the Supreme Treasure of the Star Moon Ancient Clan. How would we obtain it? They would never lend it."
