Some time later.
Central Continent, Heavenly Region.
Heavenly Immortal City.
A loud voice echoed through the entire city, stretching across hundreds of thousands of miles.
"Fellow daoists who are all the leading figures of their respective factions, please ascend the main summit and wait for the Kunlun Immortal Convention to begin."
These words spread in every corner of the Heavenly Immortal City, causing all the cultivators of all origins within to immediately stop whatever they were doing.
Tian Yongheng slowly opened his eyes, spreading out his Divine Sense as he quickly discovered that the source of the voice was beyond the Heavenly Immortal City, coming from the direction of Kunlun’s First Summit, or the main summit where the Saint Lord of Kunlun resided.
Coming outside, he found that Yan Jingfei and Jian Qi were already standing before him, looking at the spectacular scene of countless cultivators, from those in the Foundation Establishment Realm to the mighty figures at the Immortal Ascension Realm rushing towards the numerous mountain peaks, at the main summit.
However, Tian Yongheng could see that from the core of the city, there were multiple Human Immortals floating in the sky, leisurely flying up towards the main summit.
Their auras were hidden so well that perhaps not even a peak Immortal Ascension Realm expert might be able to differentiate them from regular Immortal Ascension Realm cultivators.
All of these figures gave a strong sense of oppression, however, to Tian Yongheng, he was still at least on the same level as them and even stronger than some of them, so he didn’t panic.
Even though this clone of his was only in the Eighth Stage of Tribulation Transcendence Realm and could only match a single Perfected Human Immortals from his knowledge, his main body had already reached the peak of Tribulation Transcendence Realm!
There was no doubt that he was one of the most powerful cultivators in the world right now!
Even his timid and cautious nature could not deny this fact. But even then, by being one of the strongest in the world, he meant that he was in the top 100, overestimating all the other Human Immortals and their numbers.
He was only a single step away from reaching the Immortal Ascension Realm and officially recognize himself as truly one of the ten strongest beings in the world.
Though there was still that elder whom he met on the first day of his arrival he had to be wary of. He had yet to figure out that old man’s intentions, specially with his cultivation base being unknown.
There was a high chance that multiple such Immortal like figures were hidden across the world, so it was best to not get too conceited and lay low for the time being, at least until he confirmed the intentions of those top figures.
As he discreetly wandered his Divine Sense towards the Human Immortals, his breath suddenly hitched in his throat as he realized something.
All these Human Immortals were from major factions, and he even recognized some of the symbols of those major factions embedded on flying ships they were on along with the members of their respective forces.
The Great Shen Immortal Family, the Thundercloud Sect, the Pure Buddhist Monastery, the Great Path Holy Land...
His fists involuntarily clenched as his Divine Sense caught the sight of the flying ships of both the Great Qin Immortal Family and the Great Tian Immortal Family. At that instance, an unknown, overbearing rage welled up inside of him despite the indifference on his face.
Had he not lost all his emotions the day he regained his past life memories and activated his Divine Spiritual Physique, his face would’ve contorted in anger by now.
He still had yet to figure out why he couldn’t express any emotions on the outside, nor how could he regain them, but he knew that as long as he continued to cultivated and surpass his limits, he would get to know all answers sooner or later.
At this moment, his Divine Sense caught multiple vast and powerful auras from the flying ships and immediately locked onto one of the strongest among them, standing at the front of the Tian Family’s flying ship.
He couldn’t directly see his appearance because of the flying ship being too far, but he figured that it was one of the leading figures of the Tian Family, perhaps even the family head.
Because of the range being too far away, he also couldn’t get the person’s information using the system, which left him slightly disappointed before he quickly withdrew his Divine Sense to avoid any unnecessary trouble. There were many great cultivators present here, and he was certain that there must be quite a few of them who could track down his Divine Sense.
I need to calm down and remain cautious...I can’t be careless just because I’ve gained some strength now...I’m still just a mere peak Tribulation Transcendence Realm cultivator in the end, who knows how many Human Immortals have fallen before me because they became too arrogant in the end?
I can’t afford to be arrogant or think of extracting vengeance just now...
He took a deep breath, stabilizing his emotions.
It’s not the right time, not yet. But eventually...I’ll get to that.
He thought to himself, his clenched fist gradually relaxing as he turned away, moving towards his disciples and beginning to discuss their next course of action as they summoned their flying ship, flying away on it towards the main summit.
...
Meanwhile, at the same time.
In the largest flying ship of the Great Tian Immortal Family, the Heaven Ascending Monarch, Tian Shenming, suddenly darted his eyes around and looked east, probing with his Divine Sense.
However, he found no traces of any Divine Sense locking on him and no one looking his way, causing him to have a strange feeling of uncertainty.
Strange...I definitely felt someone trying to look into my presence..but since my instincts weren’t triggered, it means that it was nothing serious...
Thinking of this, a sudden realization crossed his mind.
Could it be an illusion?
It’s highly unlikely, but it could very well be true. Otherwise, there’s no way a cultivator so powerful under the Grand Completion Stage of Half Immortal Realm could exist in the Mortal World capable of escaping my perception after trying to probe into my aura.
And no Grand Perfection Stage expert would be so shameless to do that. How many of them are even alive in the current generation? Their number could be counted on two hands.
Coming to this speculation, Tian Shenming secretly heaved a sigh of relief before dismissing his thoughts to the back of his mind. He had more important matters at hand to deal with.
...
At Tian Yongheng’s side.
"Master, I don’t think it’s necessary for us to tag along with you to the Kunlun Immortal Convention. We won’t be involved in the conversation among the higher ups anyways and would have to constantly be on guard against those of the major factions, specially since the Eternal Peak is probably a place of intrigue amongst those from the major factions."
Yan Jingfei said seriously before continuing.
"That’s why, I think it would be better if I went out to attend to some of my matters and take junior brother with me. In that way, I’ll be able to complete my impending task and junior brother will be able to experience a little bit of the cultivation world by coming with me, while master can be carefree here at Kunlun."
She brought her fists together, cupping them as she proposed.
Hearing her words, Jian Qi seemed to want to say something before he stopped and thought deeply, as if he had understood what his senior sister’s words implied.
"Yes, master. Senior sister is right. We’ll be fine on our own with senior sister’s cultivation base of the Void Refinement Realm, and if something happens, we can just send a message to you using the Symphony of Infinite Distance. It’s not like we’re wandering off outside of the Central Continent."
He said in a convincing tone of voice after a few moments.
He knew that the reason why Yan Jingfei came with them was because of an important matter she had to tend to in the Central Continent, and he on the other hand was simply brought along with his master and senior sister.
Looking at the situation, this seemed to be the best course of action for all of them.
Tian Yongheng nodded in agreement before slowly speaking up, "Hm, I understand. Then, you can go and explore on your own. Try not to cause any unnecessary trouble and keep a low profile when you’re outside. I’ll contact you after the Kunlun Immortal Convention is over, and you must get back as quickly as you can. We won’t linger around in the Central Continent for long."
His voice was calm without any ripples, however, both Yan Jingfei and Jian Qi noticed the hint of seriousness in it when he spoke the last sentence.
Not daring to take it lightly, they quickly promised to return as soon as they can after the end of the Kunlun Immortal Convention and bowed before leaving on a separate flying ship which Yan Jingfei had brought.

Watching their figures vanish into the distance, Tian Yongheng let out a light sigh as he turned to face the towering mountains of Kunlun, jumping off the flying ship and taking it into the system space before he made his way over by flying.
