Xiuxian, I have a high martial arts world

Chapter 249: The general trend of Qingzhou, should we return to heaven?
Lin Chen was stunned for a moment, then turned around and saw the familiar yet slightly unfamiliar figure.

"Master Patriarch..."

When Lin Chen saw the Changchun Patriarch in front of him, he couldn't believe it.

A few years ago, when Lin Chen first met Master Changchun, Master Changchun looked as young as a twenty-year-old man, and he exuded an elegant aura all over his body.

But now, after just a few years of not seeing him, Changchun Zhenren has changed a lot.

With a head full of silver hair and wrinkled face, he looks like an old man about to die.

If Lin Chen hadn't sensed the aura of Changchun Zhenren, he would have almost failed to recognize him.

Seeing Changchun Zhenren's appearance, Lin Chen's heart tightened, and he frowned and asked:

"Grandmaster, how did you become like this?"

Changchun Zhenren waved his hand and was about to speak, but suddenly he started coughing.

"Cough, cough, cough..."

Seeing this, Lin Chen hurried forward and supported Master Changchun.

Changchun Zhenren indicated that he was fine and said:
"Life is drawing to an end, oil is running out, the lamp is fading... the signs of natural aging are showing..."

Lin Chen fell silent after hearing this. He heard that in the battle half a month ago, Changchun Zhenren was seriously injured.

I didn't believe it at first, but now I see that he is more than just seriously injured.

It is clear that his origin has been damaged, and he will not live long...

Changchun Zhenren seemed to see what Lin Chen was thinking and shook his head:
"I don't have much time left to live. A Nascent Soul cultivator can't live more than a thousand years."

"And I have practiced the Changqing Jue and have lived for more than 1,300 years... I have no hope of entering the God Transformation stage, so I won't live much longer."

After hearing this, Lin Chen didn't know how to comfort her.

The life span of the Nascent Soul is limited. Even if Changchun Zhenren lives a long life, his life span will eventually come to an end.

Even immortals would find it difficult to resist such a longevity.

"Ancestor, I heard... that you dismissed all the disciples of Changchun Sect..." Lin Chen thought about it and asked.

Changchun Zhenren nodded, without much sadness, and said calmly:

"The Demon Sect is so powerful, if we don't send our disciples away, will they stay in the sect and wait for death?"

"If the thousands of disciples of my Changchun Sect pursue their own careers, they may still have a chance to survive."

"Staying in Changchun Gate is nothing but waiting for death..."

Lin Chen nodded after hearing this and asked:

"Then Master, why don't you leave?"

Lin Chen frowned.

Changchun Zhenren is good at the magical power of gathering energy and dispersing the form, and his cultivation is close to the late Nascent Soul stage.

With such strength, if he wants to leave Yanlai Realm and go to the Three Dao Cities, he should have a place in the Three Dao Cities, or even in the Dao City.

Changchun Zhenren said calmly:
"I told you I won't live much longer."

As he spoke, he looked at Lin Chen and advised:
"Lin Chen, you are different... You are still young and shouldn't get involved in this mess."

After hearing this, Lin Chen pursed his lips. He didn't want to cry either.

The original intention was to look for the master Han Jihai, but he has not found him yet.

Encountering the incident like that in Yanlai City again, and seeing and hearing along the way, how could Lin Chen just sit back and watch?

Changchun Zhenren seemed to see what Lin Chen was thinking, and he smiled and said:
"Lin Chen, let me tell you a story."

"A thousand years ago, the Wendao Sect had three disciples with excellent qualifications and ambitions to conquer the world."

"They have been practicing in the sect for hundreds of years and have reached the Golden Core Perfection. In order to seek the opportunity of Nascent Soul, they traveled all over the world..."

After hearing this, Lin Chen's heart moved slightly, and he thought of Lou Zixian whom he met in Wendao City.

He had a guess in his mind that the disciple the founder was referring to might be himself.

But the three disciples...

Lin Chen reacted quickly.

The Beast Taming, Tiandan and Changchun sects are closely connected. It is said that the three ancestors were close friends when they were young.

It seems that this is indeed the case.

Moreover, the three ancestors were probably all disciples of the Wendao Sect.

The Changchun Patriarch came from the Daoist Sect’s Zhen Peak; the Tiandan Patriarch came from the Dan Peak; the Yushou Patriarch came from the Lingshou Peak…

Lin Chen kept thinking in his mind.

Patriarch Changchun spoke slowly, his eyes lost in reminiscence.

"Those three brothers traveled around half of Qingzhou, and eventually went to the eastern region of Qingzhou and Yanlai Territory..."

"The Yanlai Realm at that time was not as peaceful as before."

“Demon cultivators and calamity cultivators are everywhere, and mortals are slaughtered wantonly like ants… Well, it’s a bit like the current Yanlai Realm.”

"At that time, the Exorcist Sect, the Puppet Hall, and the Sacred Heart Sect were the three largest forces in this land..."

"The entire Eastern Region of Qingzhou is regarded as a paradise for demonic cultivators."

Lin Chen listened quietly, and a picture already appeared in his mind.

The Demon Sect has only been in power for more than twenty years, and Yanlai Territory has only just been invaded, but it has already suffered the current tragic situation.

It can be seen how rampant the Demon Sect was a thousand years ago when there were no three righteous sects.

"Later, the three monks traveled all the way, cultivated successfully, and entered the Nascent Soul stage one after another."

"So he decided to stay in Yanlai Territory and establish his own sect."

“Since the demonic cultivators are rampant, we should train a group of righteous cultivators to fight against the demonic sects, so that the mortals and cultivators in the Eastern Region can live in peace.”

"Over the past thousand years, after several wars, the power of the Demon Sect has been continuously weakened. Mortals are no longer afraid of cultivators, and the Jie cultivators have become rats crossing the street, and everyone wants to kill them..."

A flash of reminiscence appeared in Changchun Patriarch’s eyes.

"Cough cough..."

After coughing twice, he continued:
"Unfortunately, the good times didn't last long... A thousand years passed, and one of the Nascent Soul cultivators was about to die, and the Demon Sect showed signs of reviving again."

"Under this circumstance, the other two Nascent Soul cultivators decided to completely destroy the Demon Sect."

“So, three Nascent Souls fought a desperate battle with the Demon Sect a hundred years ago…” “Unfortunately, they failed.”

"This defeat is not due to the war, but the general trend of the world."

Lin Chen's eyes widened, and he finally understood.

No wonder the founders of the Tiandan Sect and the Lingshou Sect all died and disappeared. It turns out that there was such a battle a hundred years ago...

Unfortunately, it failed.

"But why are the three Nascent Soul cultivators still no match for the Demon Sect?"

"A hundred years ago... the Demon Sect shouldn't have been that strong, right?"

Lin Chen was surprised.

At this time, Changchun Zhenren looked at Lin Chen and said slowly:

"Lin Chen, promise me."

"After listening to what I am going to say next, leave Yanlai Realm as soon as possible... This is not a place for you to stay."

"I have dismissed most of the 3,000 disciples of Changchun Sect. Only a few hundred disciples are left, willing to live and die with the sect... waiting for the final battle."

After a pause, Changchun Zhenren continued:
"You can't get involved in this battle."

"You are still young and have unlimited possibilities...it won't be a problem for you to achieve Divine Transformation in the future."

After hearing this, Lin Chen was silent for a long time, and finally nodded:

"Okay, disciple Lin Chen, I will follow the master's orders."

After hearing this, Changchun Zhenren breathed a sigh of relief.

Cai Youyou asked:
"Lin Chen, do you know what the world situation in Qingzhou is?"

Lin Chen thought for a moment and said:

"The Demon Sect has been prosperous for more than a hundred years? Is this the general trend of the world?"

After hearing this, a hint of disdain flashed across Changchun Zhenren's eyes.

Cursed:

"The rise of the damn demon sect is the trend of the world!"

"This is just a rumor spread by people in heaven!"

"The real trend... is the fall of the spirit world. The high and mighty celestial being... is about to fall!"

"Haha~hahaha~"

Changchun Zhenren laughed a few times, followed by a violent coughing fit.

"Cough, cough~"

"Those guys who are high and mighty, who don't care about anything and think they are superior to others, will have to worry one day too!"

"How wonderful! How wonderful!"

The spiritual world is falling? Are the monks in heaven no longer safe?

Lin Chen's heart was filled with turbulent waves.

If an ordinary cultivator said this, Lin Chen would just think he was crazy.

But the person who was speaking in front of him was Changchun Zhenren, a great Nascent Soul cultivator who had lived for more than a thousand years!
With such an identity, there was no reason for Lin Chen not to believe it.

Moreover, it can be expected that with Changchun Zhenren's background and experience, he should know a lot.

Therefore, Lin Chen couldn't wait to ask:
"Ancestor, why did the spirit world fall?"

"What does this have to do with the rise of the Qingzhou Demon Sect?"

Seeing the desire for knowledge in Lin Chen's eyes, Master Changchun sighed.

"Well, whatever... since I've already said it, I'll tell you everything!"

"The world is divided into five continents. Above the five continents is the spiritual world... You should know this, right?"

Lin Chen nodded, and Changchun Zhenren continued:
"The spirit world is originally a rootless duckweed, and cannot provide for itself... It can only rely on the spiritual energy and luck of the five continents to provide for the spirit world."

"Only in this way can we ensure that the thousands of people in the spirit world live happily and carefree..."

"But the luck and spiritual energy of the Five States are ultimately limited... After countless years, a lot has been consumed."

"There are more and more cultivators in heaven... Gradually, the spiritual energy and luck of the five states are no longer enough to support the cultivation of the people in heaven."

"Then there is only one result... Above the spiritual world, all those in the heavens cannot guarantee their own cultivation. They can no longer be high above, and they can no longer transcend the mundane world..."

"By then, what is the difference between the spirit world and the Fallen?"

After hearing this, Lin Chen frowned and thought deeply. He thought about what Jiang Liqian had said to him at the beginning.

It also seems to be saying that the spirit world does not produce anything, but just like a parasite, constantly absorbing the luck and spiritual energy from the five states...

But what Jiang Liqian didn’t say was that the spiritual world was about to fall and the people in heaven were no longer safe.

Lin Chen suddenly thought of something and stared at Master Changchun.

And Changchun Zhenren’s subsequent answer also confirmed Lin Chen’s guess.

"Return the Tao to Heaven!"

"Return the Tao to Heaven!"

Changchun Zhenren repeated it twice, with sadness in his eyes.

"Hundreds of years ago, the people in heaven panicked. They searched through ancient books... and finally found this so-called solution!"

"A cultivator spends his entire life trying to seize the fortune of heaven and earth to support his own cultivation. This is what is called fighting against heaven and earth."

"Not only monks, but mortals are like this as well!"

"Therefore, the solution is... to return everything that the cultivators seek to heaven and earth!"

"Simply put, Qingzhou needs a big war!"

Changchun Zhenren's eyes were filled with even more sorrow. He said slowly:
"We need a world-shaking war! This war will affect the entire Qingzhou, and even... the five major states!"

"When enough monks die in the five states, and countless mortals die... we can return the spiritual energy and luck that the monks have seized to this world!"

"By then, the spiritual energy will be abundant again..."

"The status of the spiritual world can be stabilized again..."
