If I become a saint, a celestial official will summon me to raise horses.

Chapter 289 Nine Profound True Fire, Calamity Descends from Heaven

This year's Spring Festival was warmer than usual because of Ye Lan's company. The day after the Spring Festival ended, Ye Lan left. She did not want to be attached to her senior brother. Cultivating immortality was also a major event in her life. At this stage, her main task was to work hard to cultivate.

Although the Great Cold Demon Sect's call to arms cast a shadow over the continent, it did not affect the overall world order. After the new year, the cultivation world returned to normal, except that various sects began to send more disciples to explore overseas.

As the years passed, the sun set and the moon rose. Every year, disciples graduated from their apprenticeships in the Third Medicine Valley, and new disciples joined, resulting in a continuous increase in the overall number of disciples. This was because the Tai Xuan Sect was also growing stronger, which led to an increase in the number of menial disciples. These menial disciples needed positions to earn spirit stones.

A blink of an eye.

Ten years have passed.

Gu An stood by the window, using his divine sense to observe the great battle in the distance.

A powerful cultivator went to challenge the Immortal of Life-Snatching, who was also a Celestial Immortal. Unfortunately, he didn't even get to see the Immortal of Life-Snatching before being suppressed by the Immortal of Life-Snatching's disciple.

Countless cultivators and demons watched this battle unfold. Not all living beings were willing to flee this human realm, especially the righteous sects, who had to shoulder the responsibility of protecting all living beings.

Over the past decade, there have been more than a few instances of Celestial Immortals challenging the Deadly Immortal, and without exception, none of them have been able to surpass the Deadly Immortal's disciple, making entering the tower a distant dream.

The name of the pagoda of the Deadly Immortal spread far and wide. This pagoda is called the Soul-Suppressing Pagoda and is also a supreme treasure of the immortal path.

Gu An shook his head. The Heavenly Immortal's defeat was already evident, proving that he was not the savior of this human realm.

He turned and went downstairs, and he felt a breath enter the valley.

It was the Holy Mother Xiling who came from the Buddhist sect in the sea of ​​suffering.

The Holy Mother of the West has found Shenxinzi and pulled him to a secluded corner to talk. Shenxinzi even set up a restriction for this purpose.

Within the Tai Xuan Sect, apart from Gu An, no one's divine sense could penetrate the restrictive barrier set by Shen Xinzi.

"Have you understood clearly?" Shenxinzi asked, referring to the Great Cold Demon Sect.

The Holy Mother of Xiling took a deep breath and said, "This matter involves a Holy King of the Holy Court. Although it does not represent the decision of the entire Holy Court, that Holy King has great influence and influence, and the Buddhist sect does not want to offend him. After all, it is unknown when the Holy Heaven will emerge from seclusion."

Holy King!

Shen Xinzi frowned and asked, "What in this human realm is worth the attention of a being like a Saint King?"

The Holy Mother of the West replied, "I don't know the details either. I only found out that it is related to the reincarnation of a powerful being from the Holy Court. That powerful being from the Holy Court may be the enemy of the Holy King, and he was reincarnated in this human region."

Shenxinzi's brows furrowed even more.

The Holy Mother of the West looked at him and continued, "This matter is beyond saving. The Buddhist sect is unwilling to take risks. Let's go back quickly."

Shenxinzi sneered, "Buddhism is unwilling to take risks? What a joke! What happened to the promise of saving all sentient beings?"

The Holy Mother of the West looked at Shenxinzi with surprise; how could she not hear the sarcasm in Shenxinzi's tone?

This isn't right.

Shenxinzi used to be proud of the Buddhist sect in the sea of ​​suffering, and had never spoken like this before.

"Go back, I'm staying at Tai Xuan Sect," Shen Xinzi said solemnly.

Just as the Holy Mother of the West was about to dissuade him, the Divine Heart Child strode away.

"What exactly happened?" The Holy Mother of Xiling looked at the back of Shenxinzi, her heart filled with confusion.

Her cultivation was inferior to Shen Xinzi's, and her status was even lower. She could not forcibly take Shen Xinzi back, so she dared not persuade him further. She could only bring this news back to the Bitter Sea Buddhist Sect.

the other side.

As Gu An walked toward a certain park, he was also thinking about the information brought by the Holy Mother of the West.

Holy King, reincarnation of a great being...

Upon hearing about the reincarnation of a powerful being, the first person he thought of was Ji Xiaoyu.

But then I thought, maybe it wasn't Ji Xiaoyu. Ji Xiaoyu has been reincarnated countless times. If it really was that Holy King's enemy, why didn't that Holy King make a move sooner?

Moreover, he was very curious about what role the Lord of the Mystic Realm played in this feud.

I need to find an opportunity to talk to the Lord of the Divine Realm.

……

In the dimly lit cave, Zhang Bukui put down his great axe. The energy around him began to dissipate, and his constantly fluttering white hair gradually stopped.

He let out a long breath, his gaze falling on the large axe in his hand, his brows furrowing slightly.

Just then, footsteps approached. Zhang Bukui squeezed the axe tightly, and the axe vanished. He turned to look at the entrance of the cave.

As the Lord of the Mystic Realm slowly approached, Zhang Bukui felt, perhaps it was just his imagination, that the Lord of the Mystic Realm had become even weaker.

"Master!"

Zhang Buku raised his hand in greeting and began to speak.

Over the years, the Lord of the Divine Realm has been very dedicated to teaching him. At least he believes that the Lord of the Divine Realm truly treats him as a personal disciple, not only teaching him cultivation but also occasionally sending him rare and precious materials to help him strengthen his ghost body and resist the backlash of divine power.

The Lord of the Divine Realm stopped in front of him, looked him over, nodded slightly, and said, "Not bad, you are mastering divine power."

Zhang Buku couldn't help but ask, "Master, are you alright?" The Lord of the Mystic Realm smiled, but his smile was so eerie. He laughed and said, "Master is naturally fine, but Master would like to ask you for a favor, is that alright?"

"What is it?" Zhang Buku did not answer immediately, but asked, while being wary in his heart. He was afraid that the Lord of the Divine Realm wanted to scheme against the mysterious being who was helping him in the dark.

The Lord of the Mystic Realm raised his right hand, and a ball of golden flame appeared in his palm, illuminating the cave chamber brightly.

Zhang Bukui's expression changed slightly, his gaze fixed on Jin Yan, unable to look away.

The Lord of the Divine Realm spoke, "This is the Nine Profound True Fire, the flame of a certain transcendent being. After you inherit it, it is equivalent to obtaining a divine power that can help you survive better. When you encounter the reincarnation of that being, the Nine Profound True Fire will show unusual activity, and you will know it then."

"Who is that being?" Zhang Bukui couldn't help but ask.

The Lord of the Divine Realm replied, "His cultivation far surpasses mine, and his status in the mortal world is beyond your imagination. I am passing on this fire to you in the hope that you will find him in the future and do your best to protect him. He will be our chance to turn things around."

Zhang Bukui was stunned.

The Lord of the Divine Realm looked at the fire in his hand, his eyes darting around, and then said, "Actually, the reason I exist is to deal with this being, but now my backer is preparing to abandon me, so I have no choice but to turn against him."

Zhang Buku frowned and asked, "Master, who is your backer?"

The Lord of the Divine Realm sighed, “That is an existence who can manipulate all living beings. In the hearts of all living beings, he is equivalent to a god. Not only me, but also many forces serve him, including the continent you come from. The Seven Star Spirit Realm, the holy land of that continent, also serves him. It was the Seven Star Spirit Realm that helped me break the restrictions of heaven and earth and open up the Great Rift of the Broken Sea.”

Seven Star Spirit Realm!

Zhang Bukui was naturally aware of the existence of this force. He never expected that the already destroyed Seven Star Spirit Realm would still be related to the Great Rift of the Broken Sea.

"Alright, I can't tell you too much, lest you incur karma that you can't resist for the time being. Just remember, when you meet someone who can make the Nine Profound True Fire move, you must support him. He will be the greatest opportunity you will ever encounter in your life, and your only hope to get rid of the divine power." The Lord of the Divine Realm raised his eyes, staring at Zhang Bukui with a serious expression.

Zhang Buku frowned and asked, "Master, what about you?"

The Lord of the Divine Realm pressed a palm against his chest and injected the Nine Profound True Fire into his body.

The true fire scattered, and numerous sparks flew across the face of the Divine Realm Lord, making his expression even more terrifying. He said in an eerie tone, "I have become a pawn, and destiny has already appeared before my eyes."

Zhang Bukui opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but the raging Nine Profound True Fire filled his body, making him unable to speak. Soon, his consciousness fell into a daze.

……

In a grand hall flickering with firelight, an old man in black robes sat cross-legged on a lotus throne. The lotus throne was made of black lotus, and dark red flames surged within it. His hair was disheveled, and his entire being exuded an aura of oppression.

Looking up at his head, one could see dark red flames surging on the top of the hall, like an inverted ocean, churning endlessly.

This is inside the Soul Suppressing Tower!

And this old man in black robes is none other than the Deadly Immortal of the Great Cold Demon Sect!
Suddenly, the Deadly Immortal spoke up: "Disciple, put some pressure on them."

His voice echoed in the hall, as if many people were shouting in unison.

Soon, a voice came from outside the hall: "Yes!"

at the same time.

At the top of the Soul-Suppressing Tower, a white-robed Taoist priest who was meditating slowly stood up. He held a whisk in his hand, had white hair and a youthful face, was tall and thin, and had his white hair coiled under his Taoist crown.

He looked down at the vast sea, his eyes indifferent.

In front of the Soul-Suppressing Tower lies the Great Rift of the Broken Sea, a rift dozens of miles wide with no end in sight.

The white-robed Taoist looked into the distance, raised his left hand and placed it in front of his mouth. He began to chant a spell, his voice soft and subtle. As he chanted, visible ripples spread throughout the surrounding space, centered on him.

A few breaths later, he suddenly waved his whisk with his right hand.

With this gesture, the sea surface in front and behind suddenly rose, precisely on both sides of the great rift in the sea, and the monstrous waves that were stirred up had the power to sweep the sky.

He waved his whisk again, and the terrifying waves on both sides swept into the distance with unstoppable force.

After doing all this, the white-robed Taoist thought for a moment, looked up at the sky, and waved his whisk three times.

……

Dusk.

Gu An rode the Blood Prison Great Sage into the entrance of the Third Medicine Valley, followed by Yang Jian and Li Lingtian. Li Lingtian, with a bruised and swollen face, walked at the very back like a defeated rooster.

"Master, will this kid be ruined?" Blood Prison Great Sage couldn't help but ask, not out of concern, but with a tone full of sarcasm.

Upon hearing this, Li Lingtian glared at him.

Gu An said, "If he can't hold on, he can leave."

Years ago, when he went to Tianya Valley, Luo Hun asked him to deliver a message, wanting Li Lingtian to return to the palace, but Li Lingtian was unwilling to go back.

Although he often gets beaten up, he is indeed getting stronger.

Defeating Yang Jian has become his obsession.

Just as Li Lingtian was about to speak, he suddenly sensed something, looked up, and his eyes widened in surprise.

Gu An, Yang Jian, and the Great Sage of Blood Prison all looked up, and the disciples in the valley followed suit. More and more people's expressions changed drastically, as if they had seen something terrifying.
