Becoming an immortal against the will of heaven

"Not good… Master… is in danger!"

Sensing the tremors in the world, Jia Yan seemed to realize something. A sharp glint flashed in his murky eyes. He no longer cared about the vengeful ghosts and demonic beasts entangling him. His figure transformed into a black blur as he rushed back.

At the same time, the two corpse puppets and the Emerald-Eyed Viper seemed to sense a dangerous aura. Without any hesitation, they, like Jia Yan, dashed towards Chen Tian's palace from different directions within the Eastern Li Kingdom, their expressions filled with worry!

It turned out that the strange spiritual energy fluctuation earlier was caused by someone triggering the protective array set up by Chen Tian.

In other words, while Jia Yan and the others were resisting the invasion of vengeful ghosts and demonic beasts, someone had secretly infiltrated the palace!

Having understood this situation, Jia Yan, the corpse puppets, and the Emerald-Eyed Viper were now acting as if they were going crazy, rushing towards the royal palace of the Eastern Li Kingdom.

After all, Chen Tian, who was in the middle of a breakthrough, was at his weakest moment in his life. If a powerful enemy had really infiltrated, Chen Tian's situation would be extremely dangerous!

And just after Jia Yan and the others left, those vengeful ghosts and beasts that had been blocked by them outside the border, all sped up and rushed towards the palace as well.

At this moment, the entire situation became confusing and unpredictable. No one could foresee what would happen next!

...

Just as Jia Yan and the others were desperately rushing back, in the sky above the royal palace of the Eastern Li Kingdom, a middle-aged man wearing a cyan robe with a sinister face was suddenly floating. This man's cultivation was extremely high, actually reaching the mid-stage of the Sky Building Realm, even slightly higher than that of the Mad Old Man.

Furthermore, although this person looked to be in his prime, his long hair had turned snow-white. His triangular eyes gave people a feeling of viciousness and malice!

At the same time, in the palm of his hand, he held something similar to a compass, and the direction of its pointer was aimed directly at the palace beneath him! Which was where Chen Tian was hiding!

"Haha… Truly, I searched far and wide, but found it with ease! I, Yin Li Zi, am about to have great luck today! Jin Chi, my master, please wait a little longer. Before long, your most loyal servant will bring back the head of your mortal enemy and offer it to you!"

Looking at the palace below, protected by layers of restriction arrays, this middle-aged man, who called himself Yin Li Zi, revealed a strange and cruel sneer.

At the same time, what was even more surprising was that Yin Li Zi actually mentioned the name 'Jin Chi' and even referred to him as 'master'!

It turned out that Yin Li Zi's appearance here today was not accidental. In fact, Yin Li Zi had been searching for Chen Tian's whereabouts for hundreds of years.

Just as Yin Li Zi himself said, his identity, in addition to being a demonic cultivator at the mid-stage of the Sky Building Realm, was also a servant of Jin Chi!

However, unlike Han Wu Ming's initial unwillingness and resistance when he was first taken as a servant by Chen Tian, Yin Li Zi willingly, or rather, joyfully, acknowledged Jin Chi as his master.

And all of this had to be traced back to when Yin Li Zi first met Jin Chi.

At that time, the Immortal Cultivation Alliance was launching the most severe extermination campaign against demonic cultivators! Under the joint encirclement and suppression of the Immortal Cultivation Alliance and all the self-proclaimed 'righteous' immortal cultivators in the world, the situation of the demonic cultivators was as miserable as rats crossing the street.

And at that time, Yin Li Zi's cultivation was only at the early stage of the凝海Ninghai Realm!

Furthermore, he had been stuck at the early stage of the凝海Ninghai Realm for seven hundred years. Not to mention the Sky Building Realm, he couldn't even cross the threshold of the mid-stage of the凝海Ninghai Realm.

With the Immortal Cultivation Alliance pressing aggressively from the front and his own cultivation stuck in a bottleneck from behind, Yin Li Zi was extremely desperate at the time, thinking that he would never have any hope of advancing further in this life.

However, whether it was a clever arrangement of heaven, just when he was most desperate, an uninvited guest suddenly broke into his life.

This person was Jin Chi!

At that time, Jin Chi was injured by Chen Tian in the Fallen Immortal Valley and had not fully recovered, so he was searching everywhere for a place to heal and recuperate. By coincidence, he came to the Shadow Demon Sect where Yin Li Zi was located.

Although Jin Chi was seriously injured at that time, as a descendant of the true Immortal Clan, his strength was still extremely terrifying, so he easily controlled Yin Li Zi, took him as a servant, and occupied the entire Shadow Demon Sect as his place to heal.

At first, because he was afraid of Jin Chi's strength, Yin Li Zi was worried all day long, restless, afraid that Jin Chi would kill him one day.

But what happened later greatly exceeded his expectations. Not only did Jin Chi not harm him, but he also rewarded him with many benefits and helped him improve his physical body, allowing him to break through the bottleneck and cultivate to the mid-stage of the Sky Building Realm in just a few hundred years!

Yin Li Zi originally thought that he might be out of luck with the Sky Building Realm in this lifetime, but he never expected that, with Jin Chi's help, he would reach the height he had never dared to imagine before.

This made Yin Li Zi overjoyed, wholeheartedly submitted to Jin Chi, regarded him as his master, and was willing to risk his life for him!

The reason why Jin Chi helped Yin Li Zi so diligently was actually purposeful. After Yin Li Zi broke through to the Sky Building Realm, Jin Chi handed a trace of Chen Tian's aura to Yin Li Zi, and said that this was his mortal enemy, and asked Yin Li Zi to notify him as soon as possible after finding this person!

Because he was grateful for Jin Chi's kindness, Yin Li Zi took Chen Tian's aura without thinking and began searching the world.

However, the乾元Qian Yuan Continent was so vast, and the difficulty of finding a person was no less than finding a needle in a haystack, so Yin Li Zi had been searching for hundreds of years.

If it were someone else, they would have worn out their patience and given up. But Yin Li Zi was different. He remembered Jin Chi's kindness and never gave up. Finally, a year ago, he accidentally obtained a valuable clue.

A year ago, when Yin Li Zi continued to search the world for Chen Tian, suddenly, a mysterious man covering his face appeared beside him, threw him a jade slip, and then disappeared suddenly.

Although that person was extremely mysterious, Yin Li Zi still faintly felt a trace of the aura of the demon race from him, but he did not think much about it, but opened the jade slip that the man handed him.

After opening it, Yin Li Zi was surprised to find that all the records inside were Chen Tian's various deeds, and at the end, it was stated that Chen Tian might be in the Eastern Li Kingdom.

It was with this information that Yin Li Zi, with suspicion, rushed to the Eastern Li Kingdom non-stop, and finally found Chen Tian's aura in this palace!
