Walker Of The Worlds

The information was surprising to the Saintess.

"They circumvented the celestial and immortal laws?" The Saintess asked doubtfully.

"It seems so. From the documents we learned that they did so by sending weakened members among them. They seem to have crippled the cultivation base of a few lower ranked members and let them raise it back to below the Immortal Ascension realm.

That is how they smuggled the goods into a mortal world." The Matriarch explained.

"And what was it that they smuggled?" The Saintess asked, her face showing dislike for the information.

"They smuggled quite a few things, including cultivation techniques, Qi skills, resources and different formation manuals. But the most illegal thing they have smuggled in an Immortal tool!" The Matriarch revealed.

"An immortal tool!? That's not something that should have been done. Does that world even have any immortals?" The Saintess inquired.

"There were a few that once came from that world. We checked the Ascension platform records in the Immortal courts and there are records of four immortals ascending from that world.

They apparently returned to the world too, evidently to solve a problem that was beyond the abilities of the Xiaofan world's residents." The Matriarch spoke.

Hearing this, the Saintess furrowed her brows.

"A problem caused by the smugglers?" The Saintess guessed.

"That's what it seems like. They provided illegal resources which a mortal world should not have and raised a local power in exchange for harvesting rights." The Matriarch confirmed. "But what's strange is that out of the four immortals, only three returned." She added.

"Hmm… one of them might have been a casualty. If the local powers were provided an immortal tool, it isn't surprising that one of them died." The Saintess nodded her head.

"The documents of the Indigo World Hegemony also showed that their 'trade' didn't stop just after that. They continued it even after the immortals returned. Though it seemed to have slowed down considerably.

There was apparently a restriction on the Xiaofan world that prevented them. A barrier of some sorts. I don't know how they got past it, though. If they forcefully broke it, the resulting backlash from the world would be far too great.

At least the immortal courts and even the celestial court would notice it at that point." The Matriarch said, confusion visible on her face as well.

The two of them sat in silence while the Saintess thought to herself. After fifteen minutes though, the Saintess seemed to have thought to something.

"Where exactly is this Xiaofan world located?" The Saintess questioned.

"According to the navigation maps we confiscated from the world pirates, it's located under the western Immortal court's mortal realm division. And within the mortal realm, it's located in the Farlands, among the newborn worlds." The Matriarch accurately recalled.

"Wait… In the Farlands…" The Saintess seemed to have grasped something.
