Immortal Palace of Eternal Life

"Suppress him!"

"Must suppress him!"

"At just over four hundred years old, he is already about to break through to the late nascent soul stage. In fact, he already poses a slight threat to the sect."

"Any possible threat must be nipped in the bud in advance."

"We absolutely cannot allow such a cultivator to appear within the Seven Nations Alliance!"

On her exquisite and beautiful face, a sweet and proper smile hung in place, but in the heart of Everlasting Spring True Lord, she was howling madly.

She knew that with the effect of the Nine Orifices Qingti, using it to break through the bottleneck to the late nascent soul stage had an extremely high chance of success.

If that were the case, in just a few years, old demon qingyang would very likely break through successfully.

But such a spiritual object was effective even against the divine transformation bottleneck. Using it on a late nascent soul bottleneck was a tremendous waste of heaven's gifts.

Pitiful her—she had been stuck at the peak yuan ying stage for nearly two hundred years, and had only managed to find one divine transformation spiritual object.

And it was one with terribly poor effects. Using it to attempt a divine transformation breakthrough would be a death sentence.

A spiritual object like the Nine Orifices Qingti should clearly have ended up in her hands, where it could exert its greatest effect!

But Everlasting Spring True Lord did not think that at this moment, the person she envied, Liu Yu, had also obtained this spiritual object only after enduring life-and-death trials and countless hardships.

This woman cherished her life and was unwilling to take risks herself.

So this time, when Radiant Night Cave Heaven opened, she simply never entered it from beginning to end.

Although she had plenty of duel of magic experience, Everlasting Spring True Lord came from a noble background and relied on the divine transformation faction Heavenly Thunder Palace. Under normal circumstances, she either suppressed others with her realm, or relied on magical treasures and other methods to gain a tremendous advantage.

Those kinds of duels of magic where one's life hung by a thread were truly very rare for her.

So when she wanted resources, she usually used her authority within the sect, and together with the natural advantage of a female cultivator being regarded as "weak," she would pressure others with power, using both soft and hard methods.

With background and natural capital alike, this woman had been unstoppable before the yuan ying stage. With just a few methods, she could easily obtain any resource she wanted.

But once one reached the yuan ying stage, the ones there were all reckless and lawless people. Using power to suppress others was no longer so effective.

In the eyes of yuan ying old monsters, women were not even women. This also made her cultivation in the yuan ying stage exceptionally difficult.

Aside from the very rare occasions when she fought with her back to the wall, Everlasting Spring True Lord could also be considered to have gone through many hardships, stumbling all the way to the peak of her current realm after more than nine hundred years of cultivation.

This woman's strength was beyond doubt, far exceeding ordinary fourth stage peak cultivators by quite a bit, but that was built on the foundation of her sufficiently high realm, excellent magical treasures, abundant methods, and rich assets.

Her advantage lay in her skill at scheming; her weakness lay in not being good at life-and-death fighting. Both strengths and weaknesses were extremely obvious. Only because she relied on Heavenly Thunder Palace was she able to avoid her weaknesses and play to her strengths.

This was also why, despite not lacking in talent or background, she still could never rival a pinnacle true lord.

And now, when the same amount of resources was placed before them, Thunderstorm True Lord basically did not need to care about anything, while she had to handle sect affairs herself.

In a sense, this was also a sign that the divine transformation ancestor did not think highly of Everlasting Spring True Lord. Thunderstorm True Lord was the real "divine transformation seed."
