CHAPTER 1004: CHAPTER 1004: MISTAKEN IDENTITY

"Where are they now?" Xu Nian hurriedly asked.

Although Murong Xue had lost her memory, Xu Nian still wanted to see her.

"I don’t know. The Tiancang Sect’s whereabouts are very hard to track. If they find out, I won’t have a life." The fat man quickly shook his head and said.

Xu Nian immediately frowned.

The power of the Four Great Sects was extremely strong, even though he hadn’t contacted them yet, he could already feel it.

"Then do you know their purpose for coming here?" Xu Nian thought for a moment and asked again.

"I do know a little about that. They came here for training. Besides them, many geniuses from the Four Great Sects have come to our Tianhen Star Domain." The fat man began to say.

"Training?" Xu Nian frowned.

What is there to train for in the Tianhen Star Domain?

It’s probably just a pretext. In reality, they’re here to search for the remnants of the Divine Demon Sect, aren’t they?

As if seeing through Xu Nian’s doubts, the fat man smiled slightly and said, "You know, although our Tianhen Star Domain is the weakest among the Nine Great Star Regions, it has the most relics and Immortal Treasures in all of the Nine Great Star Regions. Many people have discovered traces left by Immortals on some uninhabited planets."

Xu Nian nodded.

He had indeed heard a bit about this.

It was true that there were many opportunities in the Tianhen Star Domain.

Once, someone found an Immortal Treasure left by an Immortal. With originally unimpressive talent, they quickly ascended from the Cave Void Realm to the Transcendance Tribulation Stage, and then skyrocketed, directly stepping into the Earth Immortal Realm.

And such cases were not uncommon, happening occasionally in the Tianhen Star Domain.

However, even with all this, Xu Nian still didn’t believe these so-called opportunities could attract the genius disciples of the Four Great Sects.

"I fear this isn’t the main reason. The genius disciples of the Four Great Sects wouldn’t travel such a long distance here just for these so-called opportunities." Xu Nian looked at the fat man and said.

The fat man looked at Xu Nian for a while, then smiled, "Brother, as expected, you are a person with extraordinary vision. When you first entered, I could see you were no ordinary person. Since you’ve asked to this extent, I might as well reveal a big secret to you."

"What big secret?" Xu Nian asked curiously.

The fat man chuckled and said, "This secret is definitely worthy of the Spirit Stones you spent because it’s of great significance."

"Hurry up and tell me!" Xu Nian said impatiently.

Seeing this, the fat man no longer beat around the bush and began to speak.

Two hours later, Xu Nian walked out of the Everything Pavilion.

His face carried a trace of surprise.

The things that fat man had just told him did indeed catch him off guard.

Now he finally knew why the geniuses from the Four Great Sects had all come to this Tianhen Star Domain.

It turned out these guys had come for a Treasure.

The Treasure was said to be an Immortal Artifact of no low grade.

It was once the sword of a powerful Immortal.

The Immortal Sword itself was secondary; the key point was that this powerful Immortal Sword bore the lifetime insights of that Immortal.

Insights from an Immortal, that’s an extremely valuable thing.

That means that obtaining this, one’s future path of Insight Cultivation would become very smooth.

It’s said that this Immortal Sword came from the depths of the universe, breaking through space barriers, crossing several major star regions, and finally landing in the Tianhen Star Domain.

As for where it landed, that remains unknown.

Within the Four Great Sects, a strong practitioner at the Earth Immortal Peak Level once encountered this Immortal Sword.

Attempting to intercept it, they were injured by it instead.

It caused a great sensation among the Four Great Sects, which is why they sent their genius disciples to find it.

As of now, where this Immortal Sword landed is still a mystery.

Xu Nian had no great interest in the so-called Immortal Sword or in the Sword Immortal’s legacy.

He walked his own path of cultivation, and borrowing from others recklessly would only disrupt him.

Of course, getting that Immortal Sword would still be a good thing.

After all, he could gain insights from the Sword Immortal and still gain something.

Maybe he could learn a bit and incorporate it into his own Swordsmanship.

Of course, whether he could obtain it depended on fate.

Besides, Xu Nian also indirectly asked about the matter of the Divine Demon Sect remnants.

The fat man said that the Divine Demon Sect remnants were indeed rumored, but no one had seen them so far.

So naturally, the matter went nowhere.

Hearing this, Xu Nian sighed in relief.

No news meant that no one had found traces of his Master.

His Master Bai Tianhan should be safe.

For now, Xu Nian decided to return to the Tianlan Star first.

As for Murong Xue, with the Tianhen Star Domain being so vast, without concrete news, finding someone would be like searching for a needle in a haystack.

Hence, Xu Nian could only choose to set this matter aside and headed towards the Transmission Array on this planet.

He wanted to use the Transmission Array of this planet to directly transport to the Tianlan Star.

"Die!"

However, just as Xu Nian was about to reach the Transmission Array, he suddenly felt a strong killing intent behind him.

Without thinking, Xu Nian turned around and threw a punch.

The True Essence surged on his fist, instantly sending the attacker flying.

The attacker flew backward, crashing into the wall behind.

The wall shattered, and blood spewed from his mouth.

His eyes, however, were fixed on Xu Nian, filled with intense killing intent.

Xu Nian frowned slightly as he sized up the young man in front of him.

The man didn’t look very old, appearing youthful, and probably hadn’t been cultivating for more than a hundred years.

However, his cultivation was indeed not low, having reached the Peak of the Heavenly Phenomenon Realm.

With such strength, he was considered a formidable expert in the Tianhen Star Domain.

Yet his face was very unfamiliar, and Xu Nian was certain he didn’t know this person.

"Why did you ambush me?" Xu Nian coldly questioned.

If he hadn’t purposely held back just now, this young man would already be a bloody mess.

"Hmph, I not only want to kill you, I wish I could gnaw your bones and drink your blood." The young man was filled with rage, his eyes fierce.

Xu Nian was speechless for a moment.

Could this guy have mistaken him for someone else?

What kind of deep hatred did he have with him to make him so angry?

"I say, brother, you couldn’t have mistaken me for someone else, could you? It seems we haven’t met before." Xu Nian said with amusement.

"I won’t mistake you. Yan’er said the one who bullied her wore white robes, was eight feet tall, had black long hair, sword-like eyebrows, and a mole in the middle of his brow. Tell me, who else could it be besides you?" The young man yelled angrily.

Xu Nian was immediately speechless.

That’s enough to determine it was him?

This seems too hasty.

Sure, people with moles in the middle of their brow are rare, but that doesn’t mean it’s him!

"You bullied my sister, I want you dead!" The young man shouted, then swung his blade, again attacking Xu Nian.

Xu Nian was speechless for a moment.

He was about to make a move, but when he saw the young man’s Sword Light, his face showed a hint of surprise.

This guy’s understanding of the Wind Attribute Dimension Cutting Profound Argumentation had actually reached the Peak of Great Success, only a step away from the Domain Realm.

Even this slash already vaguely had the shadow of the Domain Realm.

"Interesting!"

Xu Nian’s heart was immediately filled with surprise.

He immediately reached out and, using two fingers, caught the young man’s slash.

The sharp Wind Blade on the edge of the blade was instantly crushed by Xu Nian.

The young man was shocked; his most powerful slash had been blocked?

And intercepted bare-handed. How is this possible?
