Chapter 388: Dialogue between the Masters

Su Che used the Star Emperor Compass to project a three-dimensional map, pointing at the desolate planet near Mu Lan Star and saying, “If you truly decide to relocate the sect, come to this desolate planet in a month and wait for me there.”
The ruler of the Snow God Palace recognized that desolate planet and nodded, saying, “Alright. In a month, I will light a beacon there.”
The beacon was meant to help Su Che find her more easily. After all, even a desolate planet was quite large, and searching for someone on it could be troublesome.
After reaching this simple agreement, Su Che left Mu Lan Star immediately. As for whether the ruler of the Snow God Palace would follow him to the Qi Yuan Star’s cultivation realm, he decided to leave it to her—there was no need to force her.
The journey to Wu Huang Star went smoothly. Yan Gu only took six days to reach that thick Five Elements barrier once again.
Su Che brought Yan Gu back to Immortal Prison and descended alone to the Wu Huang tribe.
Over the past two years, Su Che and Tian Yin had returned to Qi Yuan Star to cultivate. Meanwhile, the thousands of warriors of the Wu Huang tribe had not been idle either; they had been digging for various cultivation materials on this planet.
Even if these materials were buried tens of thousands of feet deep, it was merely a matter of digging a little deeper for these giant beings. After more than two years of excavation, the amount of materials accumulated was astonishing!
Even Su Che, who had experienced this before, was stunned by the mountains scattered across the plain.
Normally, the phrase “piled up like mountains” is just a metaphor, but today, it described reality. Mountains thousands of feet tall, all made of valuable cultivation materials—such mountains could be found everywhere on Wu Huang Star. After flying around briefly, Su Che exclaimed in amazement, “They must have dug this entire planet out! If Immortal Prison’s first layer hadn’t expanded to millions of miles after upgrading, it really wouldn’t be able to hold all this wealth!”
It was simply insane!
“Lao Bai, do you think I’m rich?” Su Che asked in confusion.
“In this cultivation realm where resources are scarce, master is definitely among the richest,” Lao Bai replied, dampening his enthusiasm slightly. “But in the Spirit Realm, many cultivation families can control a dozen or so resource planets. Those major sects or forces even rule entire star systems. Compared to them, you’re just…”

“Yes.” Su Che regained some clarity and thought to himself, “Back then, when the immortals in the Immortal Realm divided the original Cultivation Realm in two, almost all the resource planets were given to the Spirit Realm. What remained in the Cultivation Realm were just desolate planets no one wanted, barely sufficient to sustain life. This place is a huge prison meant to confine the Witch Clan—how could it have many good things left for you?”

Without wasting further time, after greeting a few elders from the Witch Yellow Tribe, Su Che began a nearly frantic search. Tens of thousands of piles of supplies lay there, and transporting them bit by bit into the Immortal Prison was no easy task. After five days, Su Che was so exhausted that just seeing those supplies made him feel nauseous, yet he still had to persevere.

“This is like picking up money—no matter how disgusting, it has to be collected!”

Picking up money to the point where it requires conviction is truly a remarkable feat in the world.

Finally, after fifteen days in total, Su Che managed to gather all the laborachievements of the Witch Clan warriors. After staying at the Witch Yellow Tribe for another three days, he bid farewell to the elders, broke through the Five Elements barrier, and set off on his journey home.

Upon arriving at the desolate planet where the interstellar teleportation portal was located, two days remained before the agreed date with the Snow God Palace Master. Yet even while in space, Su Che could see a faint glow shining at a certain spot on that desolate planet. It was the communication beacon used in the Cultivation Realm, visible from miles away like stars in the night sky.

“She’s already here.”

Su Che said to Lao He in his mind, “She’s probably the most decisive woman I’ve ever met. Of course, reincarnations like Tian Yin, a great witch, are exceptions—she’s not a normal person, so she doesn’t count.”

Leaving without hesitation, with hundreds of thousands of people from his sect—such decisiveness was simply…

Not to mention the Snow God Palace being a super sect; even if one were alone with no ties, they wouldn’t make such a hasty decision.

Lao He also agreed, “Yes, ordinary people can’t do such things—it’s even somewhat unreasonable. She doesn’t even know you well—how could she so boldly agree to go to a foreign planet with a stranger like you? When something is abnormal, there must be a trick. I think there’s more to this story she hasn’t revealed.”

“That’s for sure,” Su Che replied, clear-minded. “She must have some personal secrets she hasn’t shared. I also think her agreement to go to Qi Yuan Star was too hasty, too sudden—completely unreasonable…”

At this point, Su Che smiled faintly and said, “But this is just her matter; we don’t need to overthink it. Next, the cultivation world of Qi Yuan Star will become very lively because of me, and it won’t lack this one unknown factor.”
With full confidence, Su Che descended and indeed saw the Palace Master of Snow Mountain. She was sitting alone in a desolate area, with a special beacon burning in the distance, emitting a dazzling glow.
“Let’s go,” Su Che said without any wasted words.
The Palace Master of Snow Mountain nodded slightly, remaining silent, and left her homeland planet that had nurtured her—she must surely feel somewhat lost.
The two arrived at the location of the teleportation portal and descended deep into the earth, successfully finding the intact portal.
Whoosh!
Hundreds of top-grade spirit stones flew out instantly, each precisely landing on the teleportation altar. Such extravagance shocked the Palace Master of Snow God Palace, who had never experienced an interstellar teleportation portal before: “So many top-grade spirit stones—where exactly is this being sent to?”
This feeling was exactly the same as Su Che’s when he first used the teleportation portal.
“Just in case, it’s best to go together to avoid any problems during the teleportation,” Su Che said casually. “Using an interstellar teleportation portal isn’t without risk at all.”
“Okay,” the Palace Master of Snow God Palace replied without any feminine hesitation, nodding confidently.
Su Che took her hand. His first impression was that, as someone who specialized in ice-based cultivation techniques, her hand was truly cold…
Whoosh!
The teleportation portal glowed, and after just a dozen breaths, Su Che and the other person had traversed trillions of miles of star distance and returned to the cultivation world of Qi Yuan Star.
Of course, for the Palace Master of Snow God Palace, this was a completely unfamiliar place. Even the ordinary plants were mainly green, which made her feel somewhat unaccustomed…
Next, Su Che revealed his true identity to her and said, “You can temporarily settle within my sect. As a large sect, we can first learn more about the cultivation world of Qi Yuan Star. In a few years, I’ll help you establish the qualifications to found a super sect, and I hope our two sects can establish a permanent alliance…”
This was the first formal conversation between the two sect leaders; before this, it had always been from an individual perspective.
“Okay.”

The Lord of the Snow God Palace nodded and said, “Having come to this unfamiliar realm, I rely entirely on your generous care. In fact, in the past few years, I haven’t even rushed to establish a headquarters for our large sect. The people of the Snow God Palace live very well within the Xuan Guang Tian Jing; it’s no problem for them to stay there for years without going out. I actually want someone to travel more, see more, and learn more about this place, so that we can properly position the future of the Snow God Palace.”

After that intimate handshake earlier, the Lord of the Snow God Palace felt that the psychological distance between them had shortened significantly. His speech became much more natural—he no longer used “Fellow Xuan Yu” repeatedly but could simply address him as “you.”

“Good,” Su Che said with a smile. “In any case, in the next few years, I’ll make quite a big move on Qi Yuan Star, bringing about tremendous changes and impacts to this cultivation world. This will be perfect for the sudden emergence and strong rise of the Snow God Palace. I hope you can seize this opportunity.”

“Alright,” replied the Lord of the Snow God Palace, showing a smile for the first time to Su Che, like a red plum blossom blooming proudly amidst ice and snow. “Then I’ll wait to see your great move.”

“What are your plans next?” Su Che asked.

“I plan to travel around. I don’t have any specific plans for now,” the Lord of the Snow God Palace replied. “I already know you are the future leader of the Tian Xuan Sect. So, if I encounter any trouble, I will definitely go to the Tian Xuan Sect to seek your help. For now, go ahead with your tasks. I’m capable of taking care of myself.”

Su Che smiled inwardly, thinking, “Of course. You’re at the late Yuan Ying stage and possess top-grade cultivation artifacts. On Qi Yuan Star, without me, there’s hardly anyone who can rival you.”

Thinking of this, Su Che realized that perhaps this was also one of the reasons why she had the courage to follow him to Qi Yuan Star. As the saying goes, great skills bring great courage. She had already decided to leave that post-apocalyptic Mo Lan Star and settle in another cultivation world in the vast cosmos. So, it wouldn’t hurt to visit Qi Yuan Star first; if she wasn’t satisfied, she could just leave and head to another world.

It would be like going on a trip, after all.

Speaking of which, it was quite fascinating to think that one person could carry a super sect with them and survive anywhere they went.

Finally, Su Che gave her some of the most important basic knowledge about the cultivation world on Qi Yuan Star. He left her over a dozen communication jade talismans, and the two said their temporary goodbyes and parted ways.

A planet is indeed not very large for those in the Yuan Ying stage. If a meeting is necessary, a communication jade talisman can set the time and place, and it only takes one or two hours to reunite, even at the ends of the earth.
Different heights bring different perspectives; different levels lead to different thoughts. Many things are completely incomprehensible from the standpoint of ordinary people…
After bidding farewell to the Snow God Palace Master, Su Che did not return to Tianxuan Sect. Instead, he rushed to the nearby Wuji Gate to report to Tianyin: I, Su, have almost mined out the entire Wuhuang Planet, and all the most valuable items have ended up in my possession…
In a VIP room of Wuji Gate, after listening to Su Che’s account, Tianyin dismissed those so-called treasures of Wuhuang Planet with a smile. As a great shaman in her past life, she had seen things that Su Che likely had never even heard of.
Instead, she grew quite wary of the Master of Juechen Valley and said in a low voice, “Even within the Immortal Realm, there are few true immortals who can control primordial demonic energy. This person’s identity is far from ordinary.”
