"Tribulation Transcendence Realm? Isn’t it too early for such beings to take action?"
Lu Qingfeng couldn’t help but ask again, a hint of surprise in his eyes.
After staying in the cultivation world for so long, he had become familiar with its customs and ethics.
In the cultivation world, no one was truly righteous or demonic except for a few individuals, and everything was manipulated by circumstances and benefits.
As long as there was nothing to gain, no cultivator would risk their life to join the Righteous-Demonic War.
Fame was but a passing, mortal thing. It didn’t matter to cultivators much at all.
Thus, he found it strange that the Demon Subjugation Heavenly Alliance was actually willing to even send reinforcements at the Nascent Soul Realm, let alone the arrival of the Tribulation Transcendence Realm.
He even had thoughts that they were just bluffing and no one would come.
It seems that the major factions have finally taken action.
He said to himself inwardly.
"I don’t know much about it, but it seems like all the prominent geniuses of the world are gathering together, each one of them at least in the Tribulation Transcendence Realm. There are even rumors among my circle that the Divinity Transcendence Venerable is arriving alongside the Serene Night Sword Saintess, Path Seeker Daoist, and the Unrivaled Fist God etcetera. "
As the black clothed man said this, his eyes revealed a trace of excitement.
Lu Qingfeng’s eyes widened in astonishment.
Every name mentioned by the black clothed man above was that of a supreme genius of the current generation, standing at the pinnacle of the world if one didn’t count those old monsters hiding behind the scenes.
All of them had made great names for themselves in the world!
Things are about to get out of hand soon...
Lu Qingfeng thought silently, turning to look towards the east again.
"We’ll leave in a few more decades. I will try to breakthrough to the later stages of Golden Core Realm till then. Don’t allow anyone to disturb me."
Saying this, Lu Qingfeng quickly disappeared from the air.
The black clothed man bowed in the direction Lu Qingfeng had left before also disappearing into thin air.
...
3 years later.
Eternal Peak.
Yan Jingfei came out of her daoist temple, taking in the fresh air imbued with Spirit Qi, feeling refreshed all over.
She had just broken through to the Sixth Stage of Golden Core Realm with the help of her past insights and the many resources of the Eternal Peak.
However, her talent still fell short, otherwise, she might have already reached the peak of Golden Core Realm.
She herself knew that her original talent wasn’t anything special, and it was only because of her past life memories and her master that she got to this point so quickly.
If not for her master, then even with her past life memories, she might have barely reached the Innate Realm by now.
However, even with all these benefits, her cultivation speed was still relatively slow compared to the other high ranking figures of the Eternal Peak. She had realized this long ago.
To cultivate faster, she had to go to the Central Continent and get the inheritance of the Great Jiang Empress which she once obtained in her past life that allowed her to come so far.
At this moment, as she was looking around after being in seclusion for some time, Ao Longchen suddenly appeared and circled around her excitedly, flapping his tail as his horns glowed in happiness.
In the past few years, Yan Jingfei was one of the closest people to Ao Longchen, and it had grown attached to her over time.
Seeing her after such a long time for his newly developed consciousness caused him to be extremely happy.
Yan Jingfei also adored him, and it was not just because he was the first ever True Dragon she had seen or his terrifying talent, but because she had never really taken care of anyone in both her past and present lives.
Lu Qingfeng was already independent by the time he came into contact with her and the cultivation world, and Jian Qi wasn’t as close to her either.
It was only Ao Longchen whom she had really looked after, even if it was for a relatively short period of time.
Seeing him, Yan Jingfei smiled slightly and patted its head.
For some reason, Ao Longchen had yet to transform into a human form.
Yan Jingfei or anyone else didn’t know why, but they believed that there must be something different about the growth cycle of various races, like True Dragons, who were mythological beings existing in the Upper Realm.
Being born as Golden Core Realm alone was a significant feat. It would certainly take time for Ao Longchen to transform.
Suddenly, at this moment, Yan Jingfei’s gaze shifted towards a certain direction, her eyes narrowing in slight confusion.
What’s this...I feel uncomfortable all of a sudden..
As soon as this feeling appeared in her heart, it instantly disappeared, as if it was never there in the first place.
Breaking out of her stance, Yan Jingfei spread out her Divine Sense cautiously, but stopped upon realizing that she was in the Eternal Peak. There was no way there could be any danger here.

She slowly calmed down and dismissed the uncomfortable feeling in her heart, believing it to be some sort of miscalculation.
Despite that, she still got slightly alert subconsciously, knowing that there was a chance her intuitions weren’t wrong as a Golden Core Realm cultivator.
Unbeknownst to her, the Dao Field’s barrier churned slightly, as if resisting the power of the heavenly rules as Providence spread out everywhere, completely suppressing the heavenly rules.
Soon, all the ripples within the Dao Field disappeared as if there weren’t any in the first place, replaced by the extreme power of Providence.
...
At the same time, in the Central Continent.
Celestial Oracle City, the capital of the Great Jiang Immortal Dynasty.
The Celestial Oracle City, located in the Heavenly Region of the Central Continent and stretched out for hundreds of thousands of miles.
In the entire Heavenly Region under the Great Jiang Immortal Dynasty which was located right besides the Kunlun Divine Mountain, the main branches of multiple major factions were located, including the Four Great Immortal Families and all the other major factions of the Central Continent.
The Celestial Oracle City, being the capital of Great Jiang Immortal Dynasty and the center of the Heavenly Region, was the place where the strongest cultivators in the world gathered, and Nascent Soul Realm cultivators were just any random passerbys.
In the middle of the Celestial Oracle City, a grand palace stood tall, it’s height exceeding that of the clouds above in the sky. It was the biggest structure in the entire city, nothing comparing to it.
The majestic palace was surrounded by a lake filled with mystical water and defensive properties along with an abundance of Spirit Qi. Countless Jaded Immortal Cranes flew around the palace from time to time, making it seem like the ancient abode of the Celestial Emperor ruling over the gods.
Of any normal person saw this scene with their own eyes, only one word would come to their minds: Immortal.
At this moment, inside many of the grand rooms located in the upper part of the palace, a seemingly young woman looked at the mirror radiating a divine glow by her bedside in disbelief as her hands trembled slightly, her brows furrowed for a moment before her expression turned blank.
"It seems...I’ve really transmigrated to that novel."
She spoke slowly, her soothing voice coming out of her mouth as she placed her hand on her throat lightly, as if assessing something.
"Indeed, this is my voice."
She said again before letting out a heavy sigh.
It’s hard to believe that I really became the villainess of that Xianxia I just caught up to the latest chapter of...
She thought silently, massaging her temples.
She was, indeed, from earth originally.
In a futuristic earth where technology had been integrated into Immortal Cultivation for hundreds of years, she was just a mortal who was not even a cultivator and had recently graduated university.
Having been suddenly transported to a high fantasy world of the novel she just read where Immortal Cultivation had been in existence for countless eras was a surprising, but not a totally impossible event in her knowledge.
She just found it a bit ridiculous that she was the one who got here out of the hundreds of billions of people back on earth.
Or at least, she was the only one in her knowledge here.
"The Second Great Mortal World, the second mortal world out of the Nine Great Mortal Worlds of the Lower Realm...and the person I possessed is not ordinary, either."
She muttered to herself, looking her entire figure and face up and down.
"The princess of the Great Jiang Immortal Dynasty, a young prodigy already at the Golden Core Realm at the age of a thousand years, the daughter of a being who surpasses the Tribulation Transcendence Realm, and...
A major antagonist of the novel, Intricacies of Fate, Jiang Ruyin."
