Chapter 3972: Factions Clustering

Divine Heaven Domain.

Inside the Heavenly Forging Palace.

Bai Lianchuan and many other high-ranking members of the Heavenly Forging Palace were gathered together.

“Recently, many foreign cultivators have appeared in the Divine Heaven Domain, including some Immortal Emperors and even ancient beings who have reached the pinnacle of immortality.

In a short time, these foreign cultivators have stirred up a huge wave in the Heavenly Forging Palace, causing the destruction of many forces, and even our Heavenly Forging Palace itself has been impacted.”

Bai Lianchuan’s square face was solemn, and his words were full of heaviness.

His words

made the other cultivators in the Heavenly Forging Palace also turn gloomy.

A large group of foreign cultivators had suddenly appeared, and many of them were incredibly powerful, far beyond what the Heavenly Forging Palace could handle.

The current situation was certainly not what they wanted to see.

Bai Lianchuan, however, was much calmer: “Can you find out what their purpose is in coming here?”

“It is said that they are related to a place called the Crimson Jade Dao Palace!” These words came from another elder of the Heavenly Forging Palace.

His words made Bai Lianchuan frown.

“The Crimson Jade Dao Palace… I feel like I’ve seen that name somewhere before!” He then fell into deep thought.

The Heavenly Forging Palace was a legacy from ancient times, its foundation ancient indeed. Although its strength wasn’t great—at its peak, it only had a half-saint presiding over it—it could only be considered an ordinary long-lived power. However— the Heavenly Forging Palace had existed for a long time. Therefore, it had access to many secrets. These secrets, passed down through generations, ultimately became the foundation of the Heavenly Forging Palace itself. As the Lord of the Heavenly Forging Palace, Bai Lianchuan naturally had the right to access all of its secret inheritances. Therefore, the existence of the Crimson Jade Dao Palace… Bai Lianchuan vaguely remembered seeing it somewhere before. Seeing his reaction, the other cultivators exchanged glances but didn’t interrupt. Half an hour later, Bai Lianchuan suddenly snapped back to reality. “I remember now!” “May I ask, Lord Lord, what exactly is the Crimson Jade Dao Palace?” Bai Lianchuan immediately asked. Bai Lianchuan’s expression was solemn as he spoke in a deep voice, “Among the secret treasures left behind by the Heavenly Forging Palace, there are records about the Crimson Jade Dao Palace. It states that the Crimson Jade Dao Palace is related to an extremely ancient being in the Eastern Bright Immortal Continent. To truly investigate the origins of the Crimson Jade Dao Palace, one could even trace it back to the Primordial Era—” As Bai Lianchuan spoke, he flicked his sleeve, and the space before them tore open. Behind the shattered space, another completely different space appeared before them. In that space, there were numerous bookshelves and niches, upon which were placed jade slips. Bai Lianchuan swept his divine sense across them and casually grabbed one of the jade slips. Then, the shattered space healed. Everything returned to calm. Bai Lianchuan’s divine sense entered the jade slip, and then the light of the Great Dao appeared, revealing lines of text before everyone. “The Crimson Jade Dao Palace appears periodically. According to the records left by the founder of our Heavenly Forging Mansion, there is no discernible pattern to its appearance. It may appear once every three to five Immortal King eras, or even span several or dozens of Ancient Immortal eras.” “Furthermore—” “Those at the Half-Saint level or above are not allowed to enter the Crimson Jade Dao Palace, nor can they enter without a Crimson Jade Token. It is said that there are great opportunities within, enough to allow cultivators to defy fate. There have been cultivators of mediocre talent who, by chance, obtained a Crimson Jade Token and entered. After emerging, they became top geniuses, gradually achieving immortality, and even reaching the Saint realm.” “Therefore, since ancient times, whenever the Crimson Jade Dao Palace appears, it inevitably attracts the attention of the world’s strongest. If this time the Crimson Jade Dao Palace appears in the Divine Heaven Domain, then things will be quite troublesome!” Bai Lianchuan’s tone was extremely solemn, and his words caused the other elders of the Heavenly Forging Mansion to also look grave. The importance of the Crimson Jade Dao Palace was now self-evident. The emergence of a Dao Palace of this caliber is enough to shake the entire Nine Heavens Immortal Realm. One can imagine how many powerful figures will appear in the Divine Heaven Domain as time goes on. The strength of the Heavenly Forging Palace is like an ant before the entire Nine Heavens Immortal Realm. Not to mention anything else, any powerful half-saint, if they disliked the Heavenly Forging Palace, could easily wipe it out of the Divine Heaven Domain. Even if the Heavenly Forging Palace were to close itself off and completely hide, it wouldn’t necessarily be able to survive. As for leaving— that goes without saying. The Divine Heaven Domain is now being watched by many top experts in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm, and countless forces and rogue cultivators outside the Divine Heaven Domain are secretly observing. The Heavenly Forging Palace’s lack of action might not attract much attention yet. But if the Heavenly Forging Palace were to relocate, drawing the attention of other forces, then the slightest misstep would result in the destruction of the palace and the deaths of its inhabitants. Yun Suxin frowned, her face filled with worry: “First there was the Dark Turmoil, and now the Crimson Jade Palace is facing a calamity. Could it be that Heaven truly intends to destroy our Heavenly Forging Palace?” “Things haven’t reached that point yet, Elder Yun, there’s no need to be so pessimistic,” Bai Lianchuan comforted her, then changed the subject. “However, for the time being, instruct the disciples within the palace to keep a low profile. At the same time, Heavenly Forging Palace will temporarily cease accepting all external business. We’ll discuss everything after the storm has passed!” For now, all Heavenly Forging Palace can do is keep a low profile, nothing more. Hearing this, the other elders nodded. For now, this was the only option. However, just as Heavenly Forging Palace was keeping a low profile, news of several more sects being destroyed soon arrived. These destroyed sects were newly risen sects in the Divine Heaven Domain over the past tens of millions of years. Although these sects were not as strong as Heavenly Forging Palace, they were still formidable. In the past, a single stomp of their foot could make the Divine Heaven Domain tremble. But now—

The fact that a sect of this caliber could be crushed like an ant, its years of heritage destroyed in a single day, is truly lamentable.

Upon learning this news, the Heavenly Forging Palace became even more discreet.

Now, with the Crimson Jade Dao Palace about to emerge, countless powerful forces from the three thousand six hundred immortal states of the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm are flocking to the Divine Heaven Domain.

Immortal Emperors, once rare in the Divine Heaven Domain, are now almost ubiquitous.

Even the rare Longevity Half-Saints of this era have arrived in considerable numbers. For the native forces of the Divine Heaven Domain, the influx of numerous external forces is a devastating blow.

A slight misstep

could lead to the destruction of the sect and the death of its members.

Bai Lianchuan doesn’t naively believe that the Heavenly Forging Palace alone can handle these external forces.

After all,

the Crimson Jade Dao Palace is no ordinary matter.

Any force qualified to traverse the void from other immortal states and confident in participating must have at least a Half-Saint behind them.

Ordinary forces would never dare to set foot in the Divine Heaven Domain at this moment.
