Immortal of the Nine Realms-Chapter 1519: Yuan Magnetic Five Elements Mountain?

"I'm not sure if other spiritual treasures can transform, but Little Sword certainly can," said Fang Chen with a smile.

During the battle between Xie Aman and Shao Guangyin, Shao Guangyin had also summoned a spiritual treasure from the rankings. However, that treasure had not taken human form. Perhaps it was incapable of doing so, or perhaps it simply hadn't revealed its human shape at the time. The only certainty was that Little Sword's foundation far exceeded that of ordinary spiritual treasures. This was something the Mirror of the Universe had explicitly stated, and Fang Chen trusted that conclusion.

Currently, Little Sword followed the Sword Immortal Path alongside him. Every time he ascended, Little Sword ascended as well. Her rank on the Spiritual Treasure Rankings was destined to keep climbing.

Little Immortal Honglian asked suddenly, "You called me Big Sister Hong just now. So you know me?"

Little Sword replied with a beaming smile, "Big Sister Hong has been with Little Chen for so long! Of course I recognize you! It's just that I didn't look like this back then, and Little Chen was worried that if I were discovered, it would cause trouble."

Little Immortal Honglian nodded. "True. If you had been discovered before, it definitely would have sparked trouble. But today, there's no need to worry. Daoist Fang has mastered two Formation Immortal Arts, so he has a very high status among the core disciples of the Enlightenment God Palace. With such a status, possessing a spiritual treasure ranked 300th won't seem too out of place, nor will it incite others to try and seize it."

Being able to perform a Formation Immortal Art was equivalent to having the combat power of an Ancient Immortal. Most importantly, this status represented the Enlightenment God Palace, and by extension, Xie Aman, the Council of Elders, and even the Palace Master himself. No fool would offend such a figure for the sake of a treasure ranked 300th.

"Since you called me sister, I'll accept you as my younger sister. What do you like? I'll give you some meeting gifts," said Little Immortal Honglian warmly.

Little Sword's eyes lit up. "I love spiritual treasures! They taste wonderful, especially those with immortal imprints. Those are my favoritest!"

"Do you like spiritual treasures? Can you devour them?"

Intrigued, Little Immortal Honglian immediately pulled out a low-grade spiritual treasure and handed it to Little Sword.

"This is a bit too valuable," remarked Fang Chen.

"It's fine. Given my merits from this mission, I should be able to exchange for a spiritual treasure once we return to the Palace. These treasures aren't of much use to me anymore," Little Immortal Honglian said with a wave of her hand, placing the treasure into Little Sword's hands.

Little Sword was instantly overjoyed. She took a large bite out of it, causing her aura to fluctuate. Her long hair, originally like a black waterfall, began to shimmer with a five-colored luster, making her look like an edgy teenage girl.

Little Immortal Honglian was astonished. "What pure Five Elements power!"

"The Yuan Magnetic Five Elements Mountain?"

The air flickered, and a figure suddenly appeared. It was Xie Aman, standing a short distance away with her hands on her hips, staring fixedly at Little Sword.

"Eldest Senior Sister."

Fang Chen and Little Immortal Honglian quickly bowed. In the distance, Ji Gang and the others, who were busy infusing immortal essence into the formation, also noticed her arrival. However, they were too occupied to step forward and pay their respects.

"It's not the Yuan Five Elements Magnetic Mountain?" Xie Aman took a few more looks, her expression turning peculiar. "This seems to be a transformed spiritual treasure?"

"Eldest Senior Sister, she is the Yuan Magnetic Five Elements Divine Sword. Her nickname is Little Sword," explained Fang Chen.

"The Yuan Magnetic Five Elements Divine Sword that ranked 300th on the Spiritual Treasure Rankings a while back? I didn't expect it to be your treasure; you certainly hid it well," mused Xie Aman with intrigue. She nodded. "But it's true that a cultivator must have some trump cards. Given your status back then, if people knew you possessed a ranked spiritual treasure, even as a core disciple, you would have easily attracted the greed of some old monsters. Now, however, there is nothing to fear."

Then, with a hint of suspicion, she added, "I saw a Yuan Magnetic Five Elements Mountain back in the Formless Purgatory. Could it have something to do with her?"

"What Yuan Magnetic Five Elements Mountain?" asked Fang Chen, looking confused.

Xie Aman paused for a moment, then shook her head. "Nothing. I see this sword of yours likes to eat spiritual treasures?"

She pulled out several spiritual treasures and tossed them to Little Sword. "Consider these a meeting gift."

Every single one was a heaven-grade treasure. Had these been on the old Tuxiong Star, they would have been objects that even an Immortal King would envy.

"Thank you, Eldest Senior Sister!" cheered Little Sword.

She happily caught them, planning to savor these delicacies later.

After that, Xie Aman turned her attention to Little Immortal Honglian and Fang Chen and shot them a playful smile. "Since you two are always so inseparable, how about we hold a wedding ceremony for you when we return to the Enlightenment God Palace? It would stop Old Third from secretly making moves on Ninth Brother all day. I just heard her and Old Four discussing how to get their hands on him."

Little Immortal Honglian was slightly stunned. She instinctively glanced toward the Black Dragon Formation where Chen Enxue was located, then said softly, "There is no rush for a wedding ceremony."

"Indeed, there is no rush," agreed Fang Chen whilst nodding.

"I won't meddle further. But Junior Sister Hong, I have one piece of advice: if you think Junior Brother Fang is the right one, you must keep a tight grip on him. If he runs away one day, you'll never be able to catch him again."

Xie Aman pointed her finger at Fang Chen and transmitted, "Don't pick up bad habits from Wang Chongsong."

With that, Xie Aman turned around and vanished back to her own Black Dragon Formation.

Little Immortal Honglian was lost in thought until Fang Chen snapped her out of it by asking why she had come to see him, to which she said, "It was nothing much. I simply wanted to ask for your guidance on how to reach a state of Unity of Heaven and Man with the Formation Heart."

"I can share some of my experiences and sensations, though I'm not sure if they will be useful to you. Why don't you stay here for a while? We can exchange insights," suggested Fang Chen with a smile.

***

For the next several decades, Fang Chen and Little Immortal Honglian sat together discussing the Dao, with Fang Chen sharing his realizations regarding the Formation Heart. This continued until the fleet finally arrived at Drunken Fate Star.

"Why is Core Disciple Fang always running off to this place?" many of the Core Disciples wondered, watching Fang Chen's Black Dragon Boat descend toward the planet with suspicion in their eyes.

Xie Aman's voice rang out in the ears of the various core disciples, "We will rest here for a few days."

She then sought out Li Shanzi.

"There is news," said Xie Aman. "Taixu's Life Lamp has not gone out, which means his disappearance is only temporary and his life is not in danger."

"That is good to hear," said Li Shanzi, feeling a weight lift from his chest.

He shared a deep connection with Immortal Taixu. In the future, Taixu would have the chance to join the Council of Elders. Though not a core disciple, they could support each other within the Enlightenment God Palace. Naturally, he did not want anything to happen to him.

"Brother, this kind of gathering isn't for us. We'd be better off practicing at home. I've just hit a bottleneck and want to ask Sister Wushi for some guidance."

Fang Xiaohua stood beside Fang Xiaotian. Surrounding them were the children of the top noble families of the Great Victorious Dynasty's capital. The two of them were the rising stars of the era. In just over two hundred years, they had surged from beginners to the Fusion Realm. They were among the most elite of their generation.

As their fame grew, the status of the people surrounding them naturally became more prestigious. However, these people had no idea that a group of powerhouses was hidden within the siblings' private residence. Throughout the years, the two had never used the presence of Huang Wuji and the others to show off or act arrogantly. Instead, they had remained remarkably low-key.
