"Hmm? Such a strong aura, this is at least the aura of the seventh or eighth level of the Divine Path. Such an unfamiliar aura, has someone broken through their realm inside the Heavenly Emperor's Tomb?" The Divine Path cultivators outside were all puzzled.

With the emergence of this power, the voice of the Ancient Sword Emperor resounded once more from the Heavenly Emperor's Tomb.

“The successor has been chosen. Now, I will send you all away from here.”

As soon as these words were spoken, all the cultivators, whether they had obtained the treasure or not, were teleported out.

"Damn it, not enough time, ahhh..." The cultivators who didn't have time to enter the treasure vault couldn't help but roar in anger.

There was nothing we could do; who knew that the inheritance of the Ancient Sword Emperor would be obtained by someone so quickly?

"What exactly is going on? Could it be that someone has absorbed the power left behind by the Ancient Sword Emperor and broken through to the Divine Realm?" Lin Yuantian God immediately asked.

Unfortunately, no one knows who received the inheritance.

But that doesn't matter anymore; this person will definitely show up soon.

After the last cultivator was sent out, all the treasures inside the Ancient Sword Emperor's Tomb flew to a certain person. After obtaining all the remaining treasures, this person left the space with a smile on his face. As soon as he left, the space began to collapse, and the Emperor's Tomb ceased to exist.

As the Heavenly Emperor's tomb gradually disappeared, the crack began to shrink. The gods no longer needed to maintain their power, and they all withdrew their power immediately, then focused their attention on the crack that was about to close.

Just as the crack completely disappeared, a lazy young man in white walked out of it.

"Ah! This is truly a blessing from an immortal, granting me eternal life! Fellow Daoists, you no longer need to look. I have already obtained the inheritance of the Ancient Sword Heavenly Emperor." The young man met the gazes of the demon gods and celestial beings without any fear.

As for Ye Liuyun and his group...

"Wow, Aoxue, your master has also entered this place, and he even obtained the inheritance of the Ancient Sword Emperor. His cultivation has even reached the Divine Path Secret Realm. Tsk tsk, no wonder all the treasures inside must belong to your master. You have to help me get all the medicinal herbs from your master later." Ye Liuyun said excitedly.

Lin Aoxue never expected that Li Bai would also come to this place and obtain the greatest opportunity here.

However, Lin Aoxue was also filled with lingering fear. Fortunately, she did not attempt to obtain the Ancient Sword Emperor's inheritance. She already knew where the inheritance was located.

"I didn't expect it to be you, kid. You obtained the inheritance and even broke through to the Divine Realm. Congratulations, Taibai! Your master must be very proud of you." Lin Tianya laughed heartily as he saw Li Bai come out. Although Li Bai was not his disciple, he was still his junior.

Li Bai responded with a smile.

"It was just luck. Everything here is over. Senior Uncle, fellow disciples, and fellow disciples, let's go back." Li Bai flew towards the Supreme Holy Land.

But at that moment, the demons suddenly stopped Li Bai.

"Halt, human! Our demon race has been guarding this place for so long, but you've taken all the benefits. Shouldn't you compensate our demon race?" a demon god said.

But Li Bai responded to them with only a glance and a terrifying aura.

"Compensation? What kind of compensation?"

Li Bai looked at the demon god with a smile, his body exuding the aura of the eighth level of the Divine Path. As soon as this aura appeared, the demon god was so frightened that his hair stood on end.

"How is this possible? He just broke through his realm and reached the eighth level of the Divine Path?" For a moment, all the Divine Path cultivators present dared not underestimate Li Bai.

Chapter 813 Eternal Exile (6000 words) (Seeking monthly votes for the new month)

Aside from some dormant old monsters, plus the Lord of the Forbidden Land and Lin Qingyou, Li Bai's current realm makes him arguably the strongest divine cultivator among the human race. As soon as he unleashed his aura, apart from the Heavenly Dragon Demon God and a few Seventh Heaven Demon Gods, all the other demon gods couldn't help but take a few steps back.

"Damn it, where did this kid come from? He actually managed to absorb the power left behind by the Ancient Sword Emperor to this extent? Sigh! The human race has gained another top expert. We'll be in trouble in thirty years. Moreover, this kid's blood and energy are so vigorous, there's a very high chance he'll become an emperor." The Heavenly Dragon Demon God observed Li Bai with divine light in his eyes, and then said with a lot of helplessness.

Although a cultivator's lifespan is reset when they break through a major realm, this reset lifespan is simply the lifespan they have consumed plus the lifespan of the major realm. Therefore, whether someone is old or not is never determined by their apparent lifespan. For example, if a celestial cultivator who is over six thousand years old breaks through to the divine path, then he has consumed six thousand years of lifespan plus nine thousand years. He still cannot be a young celestial god. Lifespan cannot be added to the remaining lifespan after breaking through a major realm.

Li Bai is only about three thousand years old now. Reaching the eighth level of the Divine Path at three thousand years old, and considering the lifespan he has consumed, he is equivalent to a three thousand-year-old eighth-level Divine Path cultivator, plus six thousand years of lifespan remaining, so he is naturally very young.

Looking at the human gods, although they also wanted to obtain the treasures from the Heavenly Emperor's Tomb from Li Bai, with the demon race present, they naturally couldn't ask for them here. On the contrary, they had to protect Li Bai.

"What do you want to do? You demon race are incapable of obtaining benefits, so you want to steal them from our human race? Our human race will not allow this." The Heavenly God Lin Yuan appeared in front of Li Bai immediately, releasing his aura to show his attitude.

Li Bai glanced at the other person. Regardless of their motives for protecting him, the fact that they took the initiative to stand up for him at this time meant they were a friendly party.

The main purpose of the Heavenly God Lin Yuan was to maintain the unity of the human race and prevent them from being embarrassed in front of the demon race.

Seeing that the Heavenly God of the Abyss had made his choice, the other gods naturally could not back down either, so they all released warning auras to the demon race.

As a result, the demon race had no choice but to give up.

"You! Hmph! You're quite something, but remember this, you humans, you only have thirty years left." The Heavenly Dragon Demon God snorted coldly, then led the dragon cultivators away first.

What else can we do but leave? Only a fool would actually fight them when we have no advantage. The demon race is reckless, not stupid.

As soon as he left, the other demon gods also retreated one after another.

Then, the Heavenly God of Lin Yuan and the other human gods took the initiative to talk to Li Bai.

"I am Lin Yuan. May I ask how this fellow Daoist is addressed and which faction he comes from? Such a young and promising person has also obtained the inheritance of the Ancient Sword Emperor. His future is limitless." Lin Yuan, the Heavenly God, pulled away his divine light to reveal his true face and spoke.

This god of the abyss looks old and decrepit, even though he's clearly quite handsome.

Li Bai thought for a moment, then cupped his hands in a respectful gesture towards Lin Yuan.

"Li Taibai comes from the Supreme Holy Land of the Nine Heavens Domain. He is the disciple of the current Holy Lord of the Supreme Holy Land," Li Bai introduced himself.

As soon as Li Bai uttered these words, the human gods couldn't help but look at Lin Aoxue. In their eyes, Lin Aoxue was definitely ranked first among the current human prodigies, and was hailed as the one with the greatest hope of entering the Heavenly Abyss Realm. In addition, her daughter was actually a Chaos Body.

Now, another young celestial being has arrived, with a great chance of entering the Heavenly Abyss Realm first. If he also possesses the Feathered Body and Chaos Body, once he reaches mastery, he can ignore the limitations of the Heavenly Abyss and become an existence no weaker than the Heavenly Emperor.

They call these cultivators who achieve extraordinary feats "ultimate sublimation" or "alternative path to enlightenment."

Throughout history, there have been several unconventional Dao-attaining powerhouses from different eras, who may even be stronger than the Heavenly Emperor of their time. If we consider this, then this sect may have produced three Dao-attainers. How could the Supreme Holy Land not be famous? From the moment Li Bai achieved the Dao, the Supreme Holy Land was already one of the most prosperous holy lands on the Burial God Star.

"So that's how it is. It's that newly born holy land. I never expected that someone like you would be born there. You are truly a force to be reckoned with. Fellow Daoist Li, now that you have become a god, do you have a divine title?" asked the Heavenly God Lin Yuan.

This is a title given to every deity; it can be considered an honorary title.

Li Bai thought for a moment and then casually said it.

"My Daoist name is Taibai, so I shall call myself Taibai Shen."

This title was immediately noted by all the cultivators present, and the powerful figures also remembered Li Bai's image to avoid causing trouble in the future.

“Alright, I’ve noted it down. Fellow Daoist Taibai, we are all human gods, and there are some things we need to discuss with you. Why don’t we go to your dojo and sit down for a chat?” God Lin Yuan suggested again.

Li Bai glanced at the other gods. He could tell that these gods all had their own purposes. He also knew that although he could keep all the treasures he had on him from the demon race, he still had to share some with the human race. Otherwise, their Supreme Holy Land would become a target for others.

In his previous life, Li Bai was too prominent and too outspoken in many things, and he didn't know how to be low-key, so he suffered countless setbacks in his life.

If you still don't know how to restrain yourself in this life, then you've truly been reborn into this world in vain.

“However, let’s talk about this in three days. I will be waiting for you all at the Supreme Holy Land in three days. I haven’t been back to my sect for hundreds of years. My original sect was called the Supreme Response Sect, which was not a holy land. It only became a holy land after it merged with the Nine Heavens Holy Land. I need to go back and take care of some things first. We’ll talk about it after that,” Li Bai said.

Lin Yuantian and the others naturally had no objections. Although they had their own little thoughts, they were not in a hurry.

“Okay, no problem.” Lin Yuantian nodded.

Li Bai then landed in front of Lin Aoxue and a group of acquaintances.

"Master, you've finally appeared." Lin Aoxue quickly greeted him with a smile.

Li Bai sighed.

"I'm sorry, I was in seclusion when the incidents occurred at the Supreme Response Sect and the Nine Heavens Holy Land. I only heard about the attack on you by the demonic forces after I came out of seclusion. Fortunately, nothing serious happened." Li Bai first expressed his apologies.

Everyone shook their heads. The incident came quickly and went quickly. If they had all been outside and knew that the sect was in trouble, everything would probably have been over by the time they returned.

"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Taibai, go back and take a look. Our sect has moved. I bet you don't even know," Tianjian said with a smile.

"Hehe, Grandmaster, congratulations on achieving the position of a Heavenly God! Oh dear, now that I have a Heavenly God watching over me, I can do whatever I want." Ye Qingxue chuckled.

Li Bai looked at Ye Qingxue, who had grown up completely, and nodded affectionately.

As for Ye Liuyun, she had already greeted the cultivators of the Immortal Realm and told them to go back first. Now that Li Bai had returned, she definitely had to go back to the Supreme Holy Land, since she was the nominal Vice Holy Lord of the Supreme Holy Land.

If Lin Aoxue weren't around, she could make any decision on behalf of the Supreme Holy Land.

"Senior Li, it's been a long time! You're still as carefree and dashing as ever," Ye Liuyun said, flattering him as soon as he arrived.

Li Bai glanced at Ye Liuyun, and his eyes were filled with doubt. He couldn't see through Ye Liuyun back then, and he still couldn't see through him now.

He always felt that Ye Liuyun hadn't changed at all. He was the same as he was back then, just like he was now. It was as if he had met an immortal person who looked the same a thousand years ago and looked the same a thousand years later.

“You little girl are much better than me. You built such a large business on your own, while I was just lucky to be chosen by the Ancient Sword Emperor,” Li Bai explained.

Ye Liuyun chuckled and then returned to the Supreme Holy Land with Li Bai and the others. Li Bai's return after achieving the position of a Heavenly God caused a great commotion throughout the Supreme Holy Land. The most excited person was none other than the Heavenly One Ancestor, as Li Bai was her most prized disciple, and her disciple had completely surpassed her.

She couldn't stop smiling; it seemed that Ancestor Tianyi had little hope of breaking through to the Divine Path in this lifetime.

"Taibai, I'm curious to ask you something. Did you glean something from that empty painting in the palace, which led to you being chosen as the successor by the Ancient Sword Emperor, right?" At this moment, everyone gathered in the main hall, and Lin Tianya asked curiously.

Upon hearing this, Li Bai, who was sitting to Lin Aoxue's right, looked at his senior master with some confusion.

"Uncle-Master, how did you know? Did you also see through the secret of that painting?" Li Bai asked, puzzled.

"I did feel there was something wrong with that painting, but unfortunately, after looking at it for a long time, I couldn't figure it out, so I gave up. Now that I think about it, maybe I'm just not destined to inherit the legacy of the Ancient Sword Emperor," Lin Tianya said with a smile.

Li Bai nodded.

The seating arrangement in the main hall of the Supreme Holy Land is quite interesting. With so many people, Ye Liuyun and Lin Aoxue are seated in the main guard position, Li Bai is seated slightly below Lin Aoxue's right, followed by Ancestor Tianyi, and Lin Tianya and Li Muyun are seated on the left.

Theoretically speaking, Li Bai is now the Supreme Holy Land's Heavenly God Ancestor. However, when he was asked to take the main seat earlier, Li Bai refused outright. He simply said, "Since you're not the head of the family, no matter how high your cultivation is, you can't occupy this position. This position is always for the head of the family."

This means that the Holy Lord is the true master of this holy land. Even if his master is highly skilled, he still has to listen to the Holy Lord.

But in reality, Li Bai was worried that they might suddenly assign him a position and lock him in the Supreme Holy Land. He couldn't stand that. He had finally gotten rid of these tedious things and absolutely didn't want to sit in that position again.

"By the way, junior brother, look who this is." Just as everyone was happy for Li Bai, Lin Tianya suddenly waved his hand, and Tianyuan appeared out of thin air in front of everyone.

As soon as Tianyuan came out and saw the familiar faces around him, his expression changed drastically.

"Lin Tianya, kill me now!" He was both shocked and furious.

For someone like her, the last thing she wants to face is her former fellow disciples, let alone the fact that she is now a complete failure.

The moment Li Muyun saw Tianyuan, he became murderous.

“It’s you, the woman who led the attack on our Nine Heavens Holy Land back then.” Li Muyun suddenly stood up.

She hadn't expected that Lin Tianya would actually capture her, and they also knew that this woman was Tianyuan, so the old ancestor Tianyi and other cultivators from the Supreme Response Sect all fell silent.

"Fellow Daoist Li, please calm down," Lin Tianya quickly reassured him.

Upon hearing this, Li Muyun forced herself to sit down, suppressing her anger.

Lin Aoxue and Ye Liuyun were also stunned. They did not expect that Lin Tianya would actually catch this troublemaker. At the same time, they could see that the other party's cultivation had been completely destroyed. Now she looked no different from a weak woman and could not cause any trouble.

"Don't look at me like that, Lin Tianya, just kill me already." Tianyuan had no other thoughts but wanting to die.

“Alas! Junior Brother Tianyuan, if you had known this would happen, why did you do it in the first place? Senior Brother Lin, what do you plan to do with this traitor?” Ancestor Tianyi asked.

Lin Tianya didn't hesitate much.

“I don’t want to kill her. I think killing her directly would be too easy on her. How about we imprison her until she dies?” Lin Tianya suggested.

Li Muyun thought about it and had no objection. She could tell from Tianyuan's reaction that this guy was seeking death.

Since she's seeking death, then we can't let her die.

“No problem, we’ll do it your way.” Li Muyun nodded.

But just then, Ye Liuyun suddenly whispered something to Lin Aoxue.

"Aoxue, we can't give this guy even the slightest chance. I have a way to eliminate the threat without killing her." After saying that, she carefully explained her idea to Lin Aoxue.

Lin Aoxue nodded after listening.

"Ancestors, Grandmasters, Grandmothers, this person cannot be imprisoned so casually. There must be some unknown powerful figure secretly helping her, and isn't there a demonic sect behind her? Leaving her in the Supreme Holy Land is also a potential problem. As the Holy Lord, I can understand your anger and feelings, but I cannot let the Holy Land fall into crisis. Leave this person to me. I can spare her life, but I cannot give her a chance to turn things around." Lin Aoxue said coldly.

Upon hearing this, Tianyuan's expression changed. Despite her seemingly suicidal demeanor, she didn't actually mean it. She knew Lin Tianya well and knew that he hated her intensely. If someone hates someone to the extreme, they won't just kill them like that.

Because sometimes, death is a relief, while living is torture.

She deliberately provoked Lin Tianya, hoping he wouldn't kill her. As long as she survived, she might have a chance to turn the tables.

But now that Lin Aoxue had suddenly said that, she felt inexplicably uneasy.

As for Lin Tianya and the others, they did not show any objection after hearing Lin Aoxue's words. After all, they had said before that in the affairs of the Holy Land, they would only be responsible for the big things, and Lin Aoxue would make the decisions on the small things without having to tell them. In return, they had to ensure Lin Aoxue's authority.

Tianyuan's life or death is indeed not a big deal, and Lin Aoxue has the right to handle it.

"Alright, you are the Holy Lord, we will listen to you." Lin Tianya said no more.

Ye Liuyun immediately gave Lin Aoxue a few pills.

After receiving the pills, Lin Aoxue didn't care about their effects. She immediately raised her hand and pointed at Tianyuan, who was instantly unable to move and forced to open his mouth. Once his mouth was open, Lin Aoxue stuffed the pills into it, forcing him to swallow them all.

After doing all this, Lin Aoxue made the announcement.

“Tianyuan, you were once a disciple of the Supreme Response Sect, and I was also the sect leader of the Supreme Response Sect. You betrayed the sect, harmed your fellow disciples, and endangered all sides. You should have been executed, but since Grand Master Uncle has decided to spare your life, I, the Holy Lord, respect their wishes and will banish you for eternity until you exhaust your last bit of life.”

After Lin Aoxue finished her announcement, she raised her hand and waved it, and the Tianyuan was swallowed up by the power of space.
