Murong Longcheng guarded Heaven Mountain and tried his best to hide and develop his strength. He did all of this to protect the last thing that his senior brother had given him.
The key to Celestial Gate!
The key to open the Celestial Gate!
With this key on him, once people from the Celestial World took it and opened the Celestial Gate, the Nine Skies would return to normal. The Celestial World would definitely interfere and Nine Skies wouldn’t be able to grow. Nine Skies would be trashed and become Celestial World’s back garden which anyone could trample on.
Ten Lands didn’t want itself to become Nine Skies’ puppet, so they developed the world crosser judge. Nine Skies didn’t want to be under the Celestial World, so Sword God and Old Man Tianchi gave up their lives to seal the Celestial Gate.
Since Celestial World couldn’t head down, they wouldn’t be able to control Nine Skies members so easily.
This was why people from the Celestial World wanted Murong Longcheng’s key.
Thus, it was easy to explain why Murong Longcheng was so worried. He felt that if the Bank of the Universe didn’t help him, then he would be dead.
He didn’t have terrifying cultivation like his senior brother did to be able to handle people from the Celestial World. He wasn’t able to smash Celestial World so badly that they remembered his identity and name.
This was why he came to the Bank of the Universe to trade with Li Xiandao so that the Bank of the Universe could protect him.
“As long as the contract is signed, then I will hand the key to you. As long as you help solve Heaven Mountain’s problem, then we will belong to you.” Murong Longcheng said.
“Wait!” Li Xiandao looked at Murong Longcheng and asked, “You said to solve Heaven Mountain’s problem, so what problem is it?”
“After these 30,000 years of being unable to interfere in Nine Skies matters, Celestial World was furious and couldn’t take it anymore. They supported many factions in the Nine Skies and they are rushing over to Heaven Mountain. This is even more terrifying than what happened 10,000 years ago and we won’t be able to block it.” Murong Longcheng was worried.
10,000 years ago, the emperor who wanted to occupy Heaven Mountain was a friend of Celestials. In the end, the people from Heaven Mountain Mountain Range worked together to kill him and threaten the others who were tempted.
But 10,000 years had passed and the people the Celestials developed were getting stronger and stronger. Not only Cold Moon Sky, but the other people also entered Cold Moon Sky and headed near Heaven Mountain to start to probe.
This was also the reason why Murong Longcheng wanted to sign the contract with Li Xiandao so eagerly.
They couldn’t handle this danger.
After Li Xiandao heard this, he frowned. Just like how Murong Longcheng felt pressured, Li Xiandao felt pressured too.
He was wondering why so many people were gathering Heaven Mountain, so this was the reason.
All of this was them probing. The true dangers were yet to occur.
Murong Longcheng explained himself and then looked at Li Xiandao. He couldn’t see his expression from the ice-cold mask and didn’t know what Li Xiandao was thinking. Murong Longcheng was really conflicted.
If Li Xiandao didn’t agree, he would fight to the death but the outcome would be really intense.
“How are you so sure that they will come together?” Li Xiandao frowned and asked.
“I think those coming are all disciples from the big families.” Li Xiandao added.
For example, the Gold Family’s Feng Longque, the Qing Family’s Qing Yao, etc.
“I have a feeling that this time will be much worse than before. The emperor 10,000 years ago was only killed because we went all out. This time won’t be so simple.” Murong Longcheng said firmly.
Li Xiandao couldn’t help but look at Seven.
Was this contract worth signing?
Actually, Li Xiandao wasn’t willing to sign it.
Although he was at Grotto-Heaven Realm and could suppress everyone at Boundless Realm, what about anything exceeding that?
Li Xiandao wanted to improve quickly but he needed time too.
Not to mention the fact that Li Xiandao’s subordinates were only at Grotto-Heaven Realm and Boundless Realm.
How could they deal with the people that Celestials had nurtured?
Seven smiled at Murong Longcheng, “Go rest. We will head to discuss and then we will tell you whether or not we will sign it.”
Murong Longcheng nodded and waited in trepidation.
Li Xiandao and Seven instantly disappeared.
On the square outside the Trading Hall, Li Xiandao and Seven appeared.
Li Xiandao shook his head, “I don’t want to sign this contract. The rewards are huge but there are risks and dangers too.”
Li Xiandao felt that he couldn’t deal with those from the Celestial World right now, so he didn’t want to sign the contract.
But Seven walked forward with a smile and took off Li Xiandao’s mask, “You are afraid because you heard that they are from Celestial World?”
Li Xiandao looked at Seven’s wide smile and nodded, “A little. I am only at Grotto-Heaven Realm, and even if I can suppress people at Boundless Realm, there is still a huge gap between myself and them.”
Seven said gently, “Anyone in Nine Skies and Ten Lands will be afraid when they hear about people from Celestial World. That’s quite normal. But don’t treat them as gods. If they were really so terrifying, then how could Murong Longcheng have defended the key for 30,000 years?”
Li Xiandao was stunned!
Seven’s words were like a giant hammer that smashed away the worry and fear he had in his heart.
Right!
If Celestial World was so strong, then Murong Longcheng would have lost the key long ago.
He wouldn’t have been able to hold on for 30,000 years.
“Let me tell you that there are two ways for Celestial World people to head down. Do you know?” Seven got close to Li Xiandao and she was still holding Li Xiandao’s mask. She whispered in his ear.
Her scent entered his nose and her aura wrapped around him. He looked at her perfect face close up and asked, “What?”
“First, you’ll give up your body and head down in your soul form. You will then steal a body and burn that body’s potential to reach your peak.” Seven whispered into Li Xiandao’s ear.
Li Xiandao’s eyes slowly lit up.
“The second way is to reincarnate. To give up your cultivation and body in the Celestial World, allowing them to open up the path of reincarnation and send you back to the Nine Skies. You will start from the beginning and awaken your memories. You will reach the peak of your cultivation in the Nine Skies and then come back to get the key.” Seven said.
Li Xiandao had an idea, “These two methods would bring huge losses to them, right.”
“Of course. With the first plan, they would be losing their celestial bodies. If one steals a body and burns its potential, one will quickly grow old. This is why they have to get the Celestial Key swiftly and then open the gate and return to their own Celestial bodies.” Seven nodded. He placed her head on his shoulder and said.
“You don’t have to worry about them. Without the Celestial Gate, they don’t have terrifying powers. In my heart, you are more amazing than any of them. Do you understand?” Seven muttered and only Li Xiandao could hear it.
Li Xiandao helped her up and took his mask. He said confidently, “I will sign the contract because of your words. I will also make these Celestials kneel down. Heaven Mountain is mine and no one will be able to take it.”
Seven looked at Li Xiandao in satisfaction, “This is right. This is the attitude I would like to see.”
Li Xiandao wore the mask and walked towards the Trading Hall. He said loudly, “Help me prepare the contract. I am going to fight with these Celestials to see who is more amazing.”
