Zhu Long fell silent for a moment:

“I haven’t been in my sect for many years and am not clear about the current disciples… Moreover, the Dao Evolution Sect, being a third-tier major sect, has many disciples, and it’s not uncommon for names to be repeated. As for which

Lu Xuan it is… It’s hard to say, hard to say.”

His ambiguous statement left everyone pondering.

If Zhu Long’s words were true, did it imply that he was actually… A castaway of the Dan Van Sect?

“Instead of speculating about each other’s identities, it might be better to consider another question. Our discussions take place here, unknown to outsiders. How did the enemy accurately predict our actions?” Ju Mang suddenly spoke up.

His words immediately tightened the atmosphere in the room.

After a few breaths, Ju Mang adjusted the mask on his face, the bronze lamp’s light reflecting off it, illuminating his wise gaze:

“Correct. There is… A traitor among us.”

There was silence. No one spoke, but they surreptitiously observed their companions, trying to determine from their reactions and movements who the traitor might be.

After a few breaths.

“We must not recklessly speculate. With a formidable enemy before us, to be disunited would be to give them an opportunity,” Xuan Ming interjected.

“Indeed,” Di Jiang agreed. “Let’s not discuss the traitor anymore and focus on the matter at hand.”

Xuan Ming nodded and asked, “According to your views, how should we respond to this situation?”

“Since there indeed are enemies hindering our actions, my suggestion is to employ a thunderous approach and eliminate these two individuals,” Di Jiang stated firmly.

“To use such a method as a deterrent, warning the power behind them?” Hou Tu pondered for a moment, then suggested, “Or perhaps capture them alive and interrogate them?”

“It’s unlikely that we’d get any useful information out of them, ” was the response.

Xi Zi shook his head:

“Their ‘spokesperson’ exposing their identity is a provocation towards us. They likely have contingencies in place, making even capturing them alive difficult.”

“Facing such provocation and not yielding an inch, directly eliminating an arm of the enemy forces… suits my taste,” Ju Mang slightly nodded.

“I agree with this approach,” Zhu Long was the first to voice his agreement. “We should propose it to the Immortal Tomb space,” suggested Tian Wu.

“Agreed.”

“Agreed.”

“Agreed.”

Once a consensus was reached, Xuan Ming raised his hand, and a jade slip appeared in the void. Writing with his hand as a brush and using his magic power, he inscribed characters on it, signing with his code name, and handed it to Emperor Jiang.

After Emperor Jiang reviewed and signed it, he passed it to the next person.

Thus. evervone in the gathering reviewed the contents of the iade sliD. signed their names, and placed it at the center of the bronze long table.

Upon the table, twelve bronze lamps blazed fiercely. Flames extended from the wicks, intertwining like chains, forming an extraordinary array, enveloping the jade slip.

The next moment, the jade slip burned into a wisp of green smoke and vanished.

The array disappeared, and the room fell silent.

Xi Zi gazed at the center of the bronze long table, his eyes slightly narrowed.

The Immortal Tomb space, devoid of true intelligence, could autonomously operate according to its laws.

The assembly’s resolution, inscribed on the jade slip and sacrificed to this space, would be extrapolated and judged by the Immortal Tomb space, which would then provide feedback.

After the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, an ancient decree descended from the dome of the dark hall.

“Whoever kills Lu Xuan and Cheng Lingzhu shall be granted a thousand years of longevity!”

The decree, surrounded by strands of chaotic mist, appeared before everyone.

Seeing the content of the decree, the hearts of the eleven people present trembled.

This space, left by the legendary Master of the Immortal Tomb, had chosen them to act as its proxies in the mortal world.

Acting in ways beneficial to the Immortal Tomb would earn rewards from this space.

Treasures, powerful medicines, battle techniques, methods of purification… it could provide anything.

And now, it could even directly grant additional longevity?!

“This space is merely an outpost left by the Master of the Immortal Tomb, and it possesses such power. How incredibly powerful must the true Master of the Immortal Tomb be?” Xuan Ming’s eyes shone with fanaticism.

The ability to extend a cultivator’s lifespan by a thousand years without relying on powerful medicines or elixirs was unheard of. This demonstrated a glimpse of the Immortal Tomb Master’s immense power.

“Killing two Golden Core cultivators grants a thousand years of longevity, yet they are merely the proxies pushed forward by our enemy,” Di Jiang said gravely. “This indicates that the existence behind them is extremely formidable, likely a great enemy of the Immortal Tomb Master.”

“We’ve discovered another pattern regarding the Immortal Tomb space,” Tian Wu observed, looking at the decree.

“We had previously sacrificed directly to this space, asking for the identity of the mastermind behind the scenes, but the Immortal Tomb space didn’t extrapolate any result. Now, after we investigated the deeds of Lu Xuan and Cheng Lingzhu, wrote them on the jade slip and offered it, we received feedback. It means the more information we provide, the more feedback we receive from the Immortal Tomb space.”

“That’s right,” Hou Tu nodded.

After initially discovering the feedback mechanism of the Immortal Tomb space, they had tried to exploit it by creating fictional tasks, but to no avail. The Immortal Tomb space, unlike ordinary treasures with a ‘spirit’ , had its own set of rules that could discern truth from falsehood. Therefore, everyone was convinced about the ‘great enemy’ theory.

Since the Immortal Tomb space had provided feedback, there was no doubt about the veracity of this issue. Their understanding of how to use the Immortal Tomb space deepened.

“This is a war between proxies,” Ju Mang declared gravely.

“If we win, the benefits will be unimaginable,” Emperor Jiang squinted.

Bringing such a powerful existence to the Archean Eon Realm was a significant achievement. They wouldn’t even need to worry about being eliminated by the emperor for overshadowing him, because, judging from the power of this space alone, the Immortal Tomb Master was unimaginably strong.

Emperors eliminate their subjects out of fear they pose a threat to their authority. But with the strength of the Immortal Tomb Master, such concerns were unnecessary. Beings of this caliber adhered to cause and effect. Serving the Immortal Tomb Master well could lead to great rewards, perhaps even achieving true immortality and standing beside the Master of the Immortal Tomb.

With various thoughts in mind, Xuan Ming spoke, “Let’s discuss the matter at hand. Who will kill these two?”

“I will,” someone volunteered first – Shebi Shi, who usually spoke little.

“Shebi Shi, why so eager today?” Yan Zi joked.

“Young lady, no need to test this old man,” Shebishi’s voice was hoarse. “My lifespan is nearing its end. This thousand years of longevity is crucial to me. I ask you all to grant me this opportunity.”
