Chapter 482: Stupendous Idea!

Chen Ming smiled, “Great, Duan Shou, we’ll just fight it out!”

Why bother racking my head? With Duan Shou almost second to none in the Gold Immortal realm, it’ll just be a matter of time before the fighting ends!

Duan Shou stood, even he thought it was a stupendous idea.

Yang Hun added, “Sire, won’t be dangerous?”

Chen Ming laughed, “A confrontation between Faceless is all about provoking the other. This is just the beginning.”

Yang Hun asked, “What about us?”

“You and Lu Qingxuan are already stationed in a Star River each. Make sure to block all outside entry.”

Yang Hun and Lu Qingxuan bowed, “We comply!”

Chen Ming asked Bu Liuhen, “Didn’t you say you never scouted Nr. 6’s area?”

Bu Liuhen smiled, “Please be at ease, Sire. Even if I couldn’t scout everything, any sudden and obvious actions will be picked up in an instant.”

“Bu Liuhen, wait for me and Duan Shou at the entrance to Atlas Constellation, Nr. 6’s domain.”

Bu Liuhen bowed, “Understood!”

Chen Ming opened his eyes and found himself looking at the sky, “Eh, our constellation has a new Gold Immortal, interesting.”

Duan Shou asked, “Sire, does that mean Nr. 6 deployed a Gold Immortal?”

Chen Ming nodded, “Yes. One that can walk through the void, and is using it to get across. We need to end him. Wait, let’s not be hasty. Since he’s Nr. 6’s Gold Immortal, we shall observe first.”

Chen Ming closed his eyes then flashed them open, his shadow gathering next to Bu Liuhen. I say, this Faceless mask is quite handy, letting me drop whenever and wherever in my constellation.

Bu Liuhen was making adjustments to his strategy, issuing orders for scouting when Chen Ming appeared. He was stunned for a bit and jumped to his feet, “Subordinate greets Sire Faceless.”

Bu Liuhen’s scouts lowered their heads, not daring to look Chen Ming in the eye.

Chen Ming waved the others away, “A new Gold Immortal arrived in our constellation, Nr. 6’s. He is on Scarlet Dragon Star River Office. Observe him but don’t let him discover you or disturb him. Monitor him and report to me any strange behavior.”

“Understood!”

Chen Ming’s shadow slipped through the cracks and reappeared before Duan Shou, “Let’s go see what Nr. 6 prepared.”

The two arrived at the entrance to the path to immortality towards Atlas Constellation several days later. Chen Ming was perched on Duan Shou’s shoulder and looked at Bu Liuhen. He looked around then took Duan Shou to a courtyard in the city. Lu Qingxuan left a heavy guard here, always on patrol.

Bu Liuhen asked Duan Shou, “Sire Faceless?”

Chen Ming cleared his throat, “I’m here.”

Bu Liuhen was in shock, So Sire Faceless’ body is that of a crow!

Chen Ming asked, “Is everything ready?”

Bu Liuhen chuckled, “Yes!”

“Did you followed that Gold Immortal?”

“He didn’t do anything untowardly and instead was hiding his every move. If I wasn’t pretending to be the innkeeper, I would have missed him. I sent three Celestial Immortals to act as robbers and kill him without a fuss. But he acted too carefully for them to grab a chance, as if he was preparing something.”

Chen Ming smiled, “Keep your eyes on him. Since Nr. 6 sent him, he must have important orders. After the war starts, perhaps Nr. 6 will meet with him. Let him find out only what we want and not a thing more.”

Bu Liuhen said, “Worry not, Sire, now that I found him, he won’t escape my eyes.”

Chen Ming nodded, “Let’s go, I want to see Nr. 6’s power for myself.”

Bu Liuhen said, “Follow me, there’s a secret path that hides our tracks.”

They left the city in silence and stopped on a remote star. Duan Shou tore the sky with a slash of his blade and took out an immortal beast to ride along Bu Liuhen and Chen Ming through it.

The void was constantly plagued by devastating space storms, but Duan Shou used saber intent to defend. Bu Liuhen relied on Eight Dragon-ascending Steps to evade the storms.

Gold Immortal had the power to cross the void, while Bu Liuhen relied on a magical art’s might.

Chen Ming, on the other hand, enjoyed the ride.

They arrived at a faraway star in the Atlas Constellation and Bu Liuhen took out two cultivator robes and black bamboo hats. This was so no one would find them at first glance.

Chen Ming peeked at the sky from beneath the hat, “Seven Gold Immortals? I say, Nr. 6 ain’t half bad. Let’s go get our first kill.”

Chen Ming relied on Duan Shou’s power. He took the time to peek at him, My, what a good fellow. He has a 0.3 million danger value. Just how many gulches are between us?

Once in the Immortal realm, one’s danger value didn’t grow fast, it was all about auras. In simple terms, in the Immortal realm, perception mattered the most.

Here was when a hardy Dao Heart type of aura showed its value. Such an aura led to getting achievements who, in turn, provided auras.

Chubby was a living proof his missions weren’t limited to himself. If the conditions were met, anyone could do them.

Chen Ming worked his Heavenly Imperial Dao Cannon and identified the Gold Immortal’s location. Since Nr. 6 wanted a war, he’d give him one, along with a thrilling gift.

Duan Shou said, “Didn’t Nr. 6 only had five tigers? Does that mean he hid tree Gold Immortals?”
