Crafting an Immortal Race with Daily Hexagrams-Chapter 407 - 210: Heavenly Secret Concealment

After Jiang Xiuqi passed through the Void Combination Corridor Array, his expression immediately turned grave.

He actually knew very well that this invitation by the six major Golden Core cultivators from the Southern Border was merely a test.

If his resolve showed the slightest weakness, the entire Yunzhong County might be carved up by them in an instant.

However, although the six harbored their own sinister intentions for now, they were temporarily intimidated by him.

But this doesn’t mean that Yunzhong County is safe.

A thoughtful look flashed through his eyes, and Jiang Xiuqi immediately transformed into a stream of light, flying towards Yunshui City.

The Array Guardian Cultivators of Yunshui City respectfully guided him to the mansion.

Shen Chongming and Shen Chongxuan greeted him respectfully at the entrance of the mansion.

"Greetings, senior."

The two brothers saluted with cupped hands.

Jiang Xiuqi nodded and then looked around, seemingly wondering where the other members of the Shen Family had gone.

Seeing this, Shen Chongming quickly cupped his hands and explained, "Forgive us, senior. Currently, the enemy from the Southern Border is like a sword hanging over our heads. The elders of the family have urgently gone into seclusion to enhance their strength."

"Third Aunt just gave birth a month ago, and Third Uncle has been accompanying her during this time."

Hearing this, Jiang Xiuqi appeared somewhat enlightened, then smiled lightly.

"I had indeed forgotten. Considering the time, their child should indeed be born by now."

Shen Chongming cupped his hands again, "Please, come inside, senior."

The two brothers respectfully led Jiang Xiuqi to the side room in the courtyard.

The three sat down, and a servant brought over fine Spirit Tea.

Jiang Xiuqi sipped lightly and said, "I just returned from the Southern Border."

Upon hearing this, Shen Chongming’s hand holding the teacup paused slightly, then he set it down again and asked anxiously, "Senior, what was the purpose of your trip to the Southern Border?"

"What do those Southern Border cultivators intend to do next?"

The power of the Southern Border is too strong; in just half a year since the invasion, there are already over ten Golden Core Realm cultivators visible on the surface.

In Yangnao Land, the visible Golden Core cultivators are three.

But in reality, it’s only Jiang Xiuqi himself.

As for the other two, it was thanks to the news spread by the Celestial Fox Demon King.

"Sigh!"

Speaking of this, Jiang Xiuqi felt a deep sense of helplessness.

He once thought that achieving the Golden Core Dao would allow him to break free from worldly constraints and shackles, and live a carefree life.

He never imagined he would encounter such a thing.

Actually, according to his original intention, he had considered persuading the Shen Family to abandon their foundation in Yangnao Land and follow Luoxia Mountain to Danzhou.

But on second thought, the appetite of these Southern Border cultivators is not so easily satisfied.

Once they’ve secured their footing in Yangnao Land, the next step would be to invade Danzhou.

The Qishan Range is the first stop from Yangnao Land into Danzhou.

After becoming a Golden Core Immortal Sect, Luoxia Mountain has already viewed the entire Qishan Range as its exclusive territory, even if they haven’t acted yet.

In the future, they will inevitably slowly devour and control the entire Qishan Range.

If Yangnao Land is given up, will the Southern Border cultivators refrain from invading Danzhou in the future?

With these considerations, Jiang Xiuqi decided to steadfastly defend Yunzhong and deal with these Southern Border cultivators.

"They are still coveting Yunzhong."

Jiang Xiuqi took another sip of tea and said in a deep voice, "This time, six factions tried to coerce and entice me."

"But fortunately, those six are not united; each has their own hidden agenda, only temporarily intimidated by me."

"But..."

Gently rubbing the teacup in his hand, Jiang Xiuqi’s gaze deepened and he spoke with grave solemnity, "They will definitely not let it go..."

As soon as his voice fell, a gentle knock came from outside the side room.

Shen Chongxuan glanced at his brother, got up, saluted Jiang Xiuqi, and went to open the door.

Outside the side room, a Shen Family cultivator respectfully held a beast hide scroll and spoke, "Young master, it’s from the Southern Border."

Southern Border?

Shen Chongxuan received the scroll and nodded, "Take your leave first."

After closing the door, he handed the scroll to Shen Chongming, saying, "Big brother."

As Shen Chongming was about to open the scroll, a warning suddenly flashed in his mind.

Thunder Cultivators have very acute danger premonitions; he could sense an extremely subtle, formidable power contained within the scroll in his hand!

"Senior."

Without rashly opening the scroll, Shen Chongming looked gravely at Jiang Xiuqi.

Jiang Xiuqi put down the teacup and lightly gestured with his hand.

The scroll floated into his hand; sensing the hidden power within, he couldn’t help but sneer, "Golden Core Decree, what an insidious method."

"It’s that bald Hui Hong’s technique, a form of probe."

Saying this, spiritual power surged in his hand, slowly invading the scroll.

His other hand pinched a spell, and in the blink of an eye, a layer of array pattern was applied to the surface of the beast hide scroll, forming a small isolation array.

In a moment, a golden light burst from the scroll, slowly dissipating into the air.

"Alright, open it and take a look."

Meanwhile, among the six people far above the vast mountains of the Southern Border, the bald child suddenly grinned.

"There really is a Golden Core Realm cultivator within Yunshui City; even my Cause and Effect Silk Skill couldn’t capture any aura..."

"Truly a cunning and cautious old monster."

Hearing this, the Celestial Fox Demon King snorted coldly, "Fellow Daoist Hui Hong, do you not trust me?"

"If it weren’t for that cunning old thing, I would have harvested Yunshui City long ago."

The bald child wore an innocent, angelic smile.

"It’s always good to confirm."

"Now let’s see how they decide..."

...

Inside the side room, Shen Chongming cautiously opened the beast hide scroll. A glow flashed across it, and one by one, golden characters suddenly appeared.

After viewing it, the scroll disintegrated into flying ash, slowly dissipating between heaven and earth.
