After a long while.

Wang Ba finally retracted the silver needle, looking exhausted. ‘Pan Long,’ on the other hand, quietly laid on the ground.

“Senior Brother.”

Bu Chan walked over with concern, hesitated for a moment, then reached out her gentle hand to massage Wang Ba’s temples.

Wang Ba lightly shook his hand, to signal her not to worry.

Then, he grew serious and fell into deep contemplation.

The soul search this time surpassed his prior expectations, and the information he received was enough to disturb his tranquility.

From the questioning, he learned that the man’s name was Ji Lin and that he actually hailed from an extremely distant kingdom – the Kingdom of

Immortals.’

It is located in the eastern part of the Fenglin Continent, vast and expansive, around ten times the size of Chen State.

Also, unlike Chen State, which was packed with various Sects.

In the Kingdom of Immortals, everyone obeyed the various ‘Deities.’

Of course, these deities were not all the same; they each had their respective followers and Incense-burning Dao Cultivators under their care.

The Incense-burning Dao Cultivators spread beliefs on behalf of the deities and collected incense fire.

In gratitude, the deities would then return a large amount of divine power to the incense-burning Dao Cultivators, helping them to open up the spiritual government and embark on a ‘god-refining’ path that differed from ordinary Qi Refining Cultivators.

Due to their different cultivation methods, a first-class incense-burning Dao Cultivator had a strong soul that could easily seize the body of those with weak souls.

That cleared up one of Wang Ba’s questions.

Pan Long, no, Ji Lin was not a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, but a god-refining cultivator of the same class as the Qi Refining Cultivators.

His real skill level was, therefore, around Stage VI of Qi Refining.

Similar first-class god-refining cultivators in Chen State numbered nearly a thousand.

However, the reason they had traveled vast distances from the distant Kingdom of Immortals to Chen State was not out of choice but due to desperation.

The reason was simple; the deity that Ji Lin and the others worshiped had fallen dozens of years ago.

Having lost the protection of the deity, these incense-burning Dao Cultivators also lost their source of divine power. What’s worse, the cultivation methods that relied on contemplating the images of the deities to slowly accumulate divine power were erased from their memories by a powerful entity.

With no cultivation methods to accumulate divine power by contemplating the deity, and with the deity’s statue destroyed, the immortal deity completely lost the hope of resurrection in oblivion.

And along with this extinguished hope, the hearts of these skills cultivators also collapsed.

But some were not resigned to this and thus decided to start investigating the incense-burning Dao Cultivators of the sects of Yin God all over the countries who used to spread their beliefs far from the Kingdom of Immortals.

These people often held on to the rubbings of the cultivation methods to use for their cultivation.

With these rubbings and the efforts of these cultivators, they were sure to rebuild the deity’s statue and awaken the great deity sooner or later.

Their hard work paid off, and they finally obtained a hint about the rubbings of the cultivation methods from a descendant of an incense-burning Dao Cultivator in a small city nearby the East Saint Sect in Chen State, countless miles away from the Kingdom of Immortals.

But what posed a challenge was that the rubbings of the cultivation methods were left in a Sect.

Yes, this Sect was called East Saint Sect.

The name of this descendant of the incense-burning Dao was ‘Sun Yan’.

And the name of the cultivation method that could accumulate divine power was called “Book of Yin God’s Grand Dream”.

Upon hearing all these familiar names, Wang Ba suddenly understood everything.

Even when he had obtained this “Book of Yin God’s Grand Dream” from Old Sun, he had found it weird. How could Old Sun, a mortal, have such an extraordinary cultivation method?

Looking back now, though Old Sun was a mortal, his ancestry was quite notable.

Old Sun’s sudden death later made him suspicious, but he’d found it hard to believe that behind one cultivation method, so many things could be hidden.

Through questioning, he also learned that the deity worshipped by Ji Lin’s line was the one known as the ‘Yin God’.

This deity also possessed the power of ‘dreams’.

Therefore, he was also revered as the ‘Lord of Dreams’.

Among the many deities in the Kingdom of Immortals, although he wasn’t known for his power, his status was extraordinary.

After learning about the existence of a rubbing of the cultivation method in this place.

The incense-burning Dao cultivators of the Yin God’s lineage, aside from a few Nascent Soul and Golden Core stage cultivators who were guarding the divine temple to prevent it from being encroached upon by followers of other deities, almost half of the remaining Foundation Establishment and Qi refining cultivators arrived here a few years ago using a teleportation array.

Simply to successfully snatch the rubbing of the cultivation method.

Of course, not all cultivators thought this way.

Take Ji Lin as an example.

As an incense-burning Dao cultivator of the Yin God’s lineage, even if he wished to switch to another deity, no one would accept him. And being in the Yin God’s lineage, even if he were to recover the rubbing and recreate the divine image, he’d need a long time to even hope for Foundation

Establishment.

With his lifespan far from sufficient, so, not long ago, when he spotted the isolated heresy cultivator, Pan Long, from the Tianmen Cult, he suddenly came up with an absurd idea.

Sacrificing himself to replace Pan Long and become a cultivator of the Tianmen Cult!

The plan was risky, but it could free him from the confinement of the Yin God’s lineage and give him a chance to choose again.

So, he intentionally delayed, and with Madam Xue’s help, killed his companion, who was also an incense-burning Dao cultivator.

He originally planned to seize the opportunity to kill the old man surnamed Huo too.

But noticing the rapid decrease in the number of fanatic followers around Wang Ba and Bu Chan, he was suddenly wary and hesitated. He finally gave up this opportunity and purposely caused the surrounding fanatical followers to scatter.

Encouraging the others to make a blood sacrifice of Mengxing Villa afterwards was also to erase all traces related to him.

Then, he finally seized the chance when the old man surnamed Huo was fully focused on the Blood Method Pill and ignored his surroundings, and suddenly attacked, succeeding in one strike.

He then suddenly killed Madam Xue.

Had it not been for Wang Ba’s sudden appearance, he would have almost succeeded.

Listening to Ji Lin explain his plans without leaving out a single detail, Wang Ba felt solemn at heart.

In this world, no one is a true fool.

Even the old man surnamed Huo, who was sneak-attacked to death, would have probably been able to see through Pan Long’s true identity soon if not for his greed blinding his judgement.

This was also the reason for Ji Lin’s desperate attempt to kill the two.

These two knew him too well, and they just didn’t think about it carefully because of the urgency at the moment.

Once they had time to think, it wasn’t really certain who would deceive whom. Apart from that, Wang Ba heard quite a few other secrets about the Incense Fire Dao from Ji Lin’s mouth, and also heard about something very important to him.

“Paired with the ‘Book of Yin God’s Grand Dream’, there’s also a ‘Divine Dream’ method.”

“The ‘Book of Yin God’s Grand Dream’ is, in fact, the cultivation method for the Yin God’s divine power.”

“And the ‘Divine Dream’ is a powerful exclusive spell that brings the Yin God s divine power to its extreme limit.”

“However, this method, though it has lost its value due to the disappearance of the ‘Book of Yin God’s Grand Dream’, is still only accessible to Foundation Establishment cultivators.”

“According to what Ji Lin knows, almost three hundred miles from here there’s a big city—’Yushui City’ which is home to three incense-burning Dao Foundation Establishment cultivators, one of whom has this cultivation method..”
