Madam, please ascend.

Chapter 330 Human Firewood
The two had completely different experiences in their previous life compared to this one.

After experiencing the nameless town, Yun Yi fell deeply in love with Song Xinci and took the initiative to follow her back to the Demon Sect to cultivate together.

Song Xinci was naturally not fond of him, but only used him as a shield, using a fake wedding to appease the Demon Lord Yi Tianxing's pursuit.

Yun Yi knew about this, but he was deeply devoted to his friends and refused to turn back no matter what.

After a series of twists and turns, the two went through being hunted down by Yi Tianxing and attacking the Tiancan Sect together. Finally, they managed to make the Wandu Sect and Yinshen Palace submit to them, completing the feat of unifying the demonic sects.

Originally, Song Xinci planned to break through the bottleneck of ascension and break the bond between herself and Yun Yi. Unexpectedly, at this critical moment, an organization called Futiange suddenly appeared in the human world.

It not only quickly unified the two major secular dynasties, but also extended its reach into the cultivation world, attempting to use Yun Yi to hold Song Xinci hostage, so that it could control the entire Demon Sect.

Therefore, the deaths of Yun Yi and Song Xinci in their previous lives were actually orchestrated by the Futian Pavilion.

However, the two died in a very strange way, and they had never paid attention to the behemoth that was Futian Pavilion, so they were confused when they died.

Song Xinci scooped up a handful of water and poured it on her shoulder, thinking that her biggest confusion was why Yun Yi could return to the nameless town with his memories, at the crucial moment when he was first implanted with the Heart-Connecting Gu.

After sharing a room with him, her memories of her past life began to resurface and became uncontrollable.

Who could be behind such an unbelievable thing?
Song Xinci looked up at the sky, wondering if it was you. Was there a divine will at play?
Unable to figure out the problem for the time being, she simply stopped thinking about it and began to ponder the reasons behind the actions of the Futian Pavilion.

Perhaps it's because of his higher cultivation level, or perhaps it's because of the Supreme Dao of Forgetfulness.

Song Xinci quickly figured out the true purpose of Futiange, and he wasn't surprised at all.

She was simply thinking about how she and Yun Yi could avoid repeating the same mistakes in this life. In fact, she wanted to take preventative measures and nip the Overturning Heaven Pavilion in the bud.

……

It's difficult, because a behemoth like the Overturning Heaven Pavilion must hold countless secrets.

Xiao Buyi alone is enough to give people a headache.

Nevertheless, Yun Yi and Song Xinci came to the same conclusion: knowing yourself and your enemy will ensure victory in every battle.

Regardless of the odds of winning, you should at least find out the strengths and weaknesses of your opponent.

He asked, "How many experts are there in the Overturning Heaven Pavilion?"

Yu Wuxia replied, "The Pavilion Master is naturally a Celestial Realm expert, one of a kind."

'That's not necessarily true. Even the Sword Saint King Shenlai is still in the mortal realm,' Yun Yi thought to himself.

"Below the Pavilion Master are three Ascension Realm cultivators, codenamed Seven Kills, Breaking Army, and Greedy Wolf respectively. Their specific identities are a mystery. Zhao Wuxiang only recognizes Seven Kills—Xiao Buyi."

Yun Yi did not expect that there were three Ascension Realm cultivators in the Overturning Heaven Pavilion. If these people joined forces, even the Righteous Qi Sect might not be able to withstand them.

He asked, "Are you implying that these three people are not traveling together?"

Yu Wuxia: "That's right. The three of them are divided into groups and each carries out the task of destroying the Heavenly Pillars. This arrangement is probably also related to the fact that the spiritual energy in the human world is scarce and cannot help those who have ascended to the Heavenly Realm recover their cultivation. Their number of times to act is limited."

Speaking of the Heavenly Pillars, Yun Yi asked a crucial question: "How many Heavenly Pillars has the Overturning Heaven Pavilion destroyed, or rather, how many Heavenly Pillars are left today?"

Yu Wuxia pondered for a moment and replied, "There are nine Heavenly Pillars in total. A thousand years ago, the Overturning Heaven Pavilion began plotting to destroy them. Now, they have destroyed Buzhou Mountain, Biluo Stream, and Canglang Sect..." Buzhou Mountain was the habitat of the cultivation family "Jiang Family". A thousand years ago, it was leveled by a sword, which was caused by the Heavenly Pillars.

Biluojian is a legendary place that connects to the earth, a place rarely visited by people, and only a very few know its location.

The Canglang Sect was once one of the five major righteous sects, located in the East Sea. It was almost wiped out in the last war between the righteous and the demonic, and it turned out that it was also related to the destruction of the Heavenly Pillar.

"And there's the Hundred Desolate Sacred Land, the Soaring Sect, the Realm of No Knowledge..."

The Hundred Desolate Sacred Land is located in the far north and is considered the most sacred place by countless desolate races.

Yun Yi personally experienced the Fuyou Sect and the Boundless Realm, so there's no need to elaborate.

However, it was unexpected that Ling Yun forcibly repaired the Heavenly Pillar of the Fuyou Sect by sacrificing all her cultivation, but in the eyes of the Futian Pavilion, it was all in vain.

Yun Yi said, "So, there are still three Heavenly Pillars that have not been destroyed."

Yu Wuxia said, "One is in the Demon Capital, one is at the End of the World, and as for the last one, you should have already guessed it, it is in the Righteous Qi Sect."

Although the legend of the Nine Heavenly Pillars is widely known in the cultivation world, very few people know their locations. The Heavenly Pillars in places like Biluojian, Wushijie, and Yaodu are hidden in blessed lands that appear only once every few centuries, making them extremely rare to see.

No wonder the Overturning Heaven Pavilion has been making a lot of moves in recent years. It turns out that they finally waited for the opening of the Floating Life Secret Treasure and the breaking of the Demon Capital's seal. Otherwise, they would have been helpless against the Heavenly Pillars in these two places.

Yun Yi was not surprised by the Heavenly Pillar at the End of the World, because he and Song Xinci had died there in their previous lives. Considering what the Overturning Heaven Pavilion had done, he had long guessed that it was definitely not an ordinary place.

Yun Yi said, "Every time the Overturning Heaven Pavilion breaks a Heavenly Pillar, the power of those Ascension Realm cultivators will be diminished, so they chose to leave the most difficult Zhengqi Sect to take down last."

Yu Wuxia nodded and said, "That's right. In the eyes of the Pavilion Master, apart from the Heavenly Pillar of the Righteous Qi Sect being somewhat troublesome, the others are all insignificant."

Where is the Heavenly Pillar of the Demon Capital?

"Zhao Wuxiang only knows that Tianzhu is in Crescent Moon City, but he can't find its whereabouts for the time being."

Upon hearing this, Yun Yi breathed a sigh of relief and then asked, "He must have had some helpers, right? The Overturning Heaven Pavilion wouldn't have sent just one Dao Integration Realm cultivator like him to carry out this mission."

"Of course there is. That person is called the Divine Calculator, or Old Abacus. He is a Dao Integration Realm expert in divination. He is the one who calculated that the Heavenly Pillar is in the city. And given enough time, he will definitely be able to find the exact location of the Heavenly Pillar."

Yu Wuxia changed the subject: "In addition, Zhao Wuxiang also gave the last remaining Great Evolution Escape Talisman to Lao Suanpan. As long as he finds the Heavenly Pillar, he will summon Seven Kill Xiao Buyi."

With an Ascension Realm expert as a backup plan, destroying the Heavenly Pillar would be enough for the Overturning Heaven Pavilion.

Yun Yi glanced at the little golden beast on his shoulder, thinking that it seemed the Overturning Heaven Pavilion hadn't discovered him yet, which was somewhat good news.

"I have one more question."

"please say."

"Since the Overturning Heaven Pavilion is willing to sacrifice the lives of hundreds of millions of living beings, why does it seem to me that they have been avoiding causing too many casualties during their operations?"

"This is because those beings are not yet ready to die. Only when the heavens descend can those humans be transformed into firewood, with cultivators as firewood and mortals as fuel, using their lives to ignite a raging inferno powerful enough to burn down the heavens!"
