Xuan Ji's eyes glead with determination as he committed everything to mory.
But this was the Wild Heaven Region, and he couldn't believe that a Venerable with a notorious title would be so kind-hearted as to help him.
When he suggested attacking the Tian Shu Holy Land with the entire sect, he was already prepared for a do-or-die situation. He would rather fight for a slim chance of survival for the sect than be manipulated in the future.
"Xuan Ji, attacking the Tian Shu Holy Land with the entire sect may not be wise. It's fine to vent your anger, but don't lead these disciples to their deaths."
Chen Xun's expression gradually cald as he pondered, "The path of immortality is not easy, and the sect is precious."
He spoke more than usual, having witnessed everything that had happened in recent days, and his heart couldn't help but be stirred.
"Senior, you may not know, but the enmity between the Tian Shu Holy Land and our sect is not that simple. We have our own trump cards to dare to attack the Holy Land."
Xuan Ji's eyes showed a hint of respect as he explained, "This matter also involves another Venerable from the Tian Shu Holy Land. It's not a reckless move, nor is it just a venting of anger."
"Oh..."
Chen Xun smiled faintly, "Since it's a private matter between your two sects, I won't interfere. It seems I've spoken too much."
"Xuan Ji owes you a life."
"We owe each other nothing, no need to do anything for ."
"You..."
"Heh, I'm leaving. Until we et again."
Before Xuan Ji could finish his sentence, Chen Xun's gaze sharpened, and he waved his sleeve, taking Black Bull with him as they soared into the sky.
In the distant sky, Tai Yu sensed this and imdiately followed. In just a few days, the appearance fee was ten thousand top-grade spirit stones!
If he could find ninety-nine more cultivators at the Great Ascension stage like this, he might finally escape the terrifying Extinction Venerable and flee far away. Who wouldn't be on edge staying by his side?!
After all, they were not related, and in the world of immortals, upper-level cultivators were never truly good people, always walking the line between right and wrong.
Within the Sky-Supporting Sect.
One by one, the cultivators excitedly flew through the air, and even so disciples bowed in the direction Tai Yu had left. Such a great favor, how could they not rember it?
"Master!"
"Ancestor!"
...
Trembling voices ca from the riverbank, their bodies stained with blood, preventing the cultivators of the Tian Shu Holy Land from approaching the sect, buying the ancestor a lot of ti.
Xuan Ji stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the sky with a deep look, a faint smile gradually appearing on his lips: "I have ascended to the Tribulation Crossing stage, and the sect's legacy is secure for millennia. But the enmity that blocks our path, we must plan carefully now."
"Yes!" Several people nodded heavily.
A woman stepped onto the river, her brows full of heroism. She bowed her head and said, "Master, during your Tribulation Crossing, there was an axe..."
"Qing'er, let's not discuss this matter further. The heavenly might is vast, the earth is grand, and the path of immortality is endless. Keep reverence in your heart."
At this mont, Xuan Ji's aura was unfathomable, his realm having entered another world, "The Tian Shu Holy Land dared to act at this ti, and it's not as simple as it seems. I will thoroughly investigate."
The group exchanged silent glances, nodding in agreent. This matter was indeed too strange, and the most peculiar thing was the appearance of soone from the ancient immortal clan!
After the joy subsided, a trace of fatigue flashed in everyone's eyes. If they weren't being manipulated, they were on the path of being manipulated. It was truly difficult for the weak to survive in the Wild Heaven Region.
"Gather the sect's disciples. In ten years, announce to the world that I have entered the Tribulation Crossing stage and hold a sect assembly."
A hint of dominance flashed in Xuan Ji's eyes. No matter what that person intended, the cause and effect were set, and there was no need to hesitate, "In ten years, we will visit the Tian Shu Holy Land!"
"Yes!" The crowd responded with a low shout.
The Sky-Supporting Sect was plunged into imnse busyness, with rainbow lights shooting into the sky from within the mountain gate, and a terrifying aura of laws perating the air, as if the entire sect had entered another world.
...
On the way back to the mountain hut, clouds rolled across the sky. Wherever there were giant clouds of colorful light, Chen Xun and Black Bull would dive in, creating a large hole in the clouds.
This left Tai Yu sowhat bewildered. What were they doing?!
The key was that the two of them looked so serious, with no other expression visible. Could it be that they were comprehending sothing...
He couldn't help but speak up, "Senior."
"Ahem, what's the matter?" Chen Xun adjusted his deanor and turned his head, relaxing with Black Bull and maintaining a peaceful cultivator's mindset.
"Moo?"
Black Bull let out a joyful call, moving through the clouds as if floating in water, a feeling that ordinary people wouldn't understand.
"Did that Great Ascension cultivator succeed in crossing the tribulation just like that...?"
Tai Yu finally voiced his doubts, his tone tinged with nervousness because that cold gaze was now fixed on him, "I believe I can withstand the heavenly tribulation! There's no need for you to trouble yourself, Senior!"
He hurriedly added the last sentence, fearing that if he spoke too slowly, he would never have the chance to speak again. He bore the Five Elents mark and had even attempted to erase it...
But the difficulty was akin to erasing all the qi of the Five Elents in the grand world, which was simply impossible.
"Little brother, are you worried that I would absorb the power of the heavenly tribulation?"
"I would never dare!"
"Speak your mind. You've road the Wild Heaven Region for many years, known for your fierce character. Why are you now so hesitant in front of ?"
A aningful smile appeared on Chen Xun's lips, "Thousands of years ago, I fought with soone from your clan nad Taixiao. He wasn't like you."
"Taixiao..." Tai Yu frowned, having never heard of him.
He had heard that cultivators from the grand world outside the Wild Heaven Region loved to extend their lifespans, but if they ca to the Wild Heaven Region, no one would give such weaklings a chance to grow safely. Taixiao was likely not of the sa generation as him.
But Chen Xun's words had indeed provoked him, and his aura beca slightly more intense as he solemnly spoke, "Senior, indeed, I fear the power of the heavenly tribulation might be diminished. What would be the point of such a tribulation crossing?!"
"I believe your Venerable laws might have so issues, so let face the tribulation alone!"
Boom—
"Ah!!!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a world-shaking thunderbolt struck down from the sky, and Tai Yu let out a scream that echoed through the sky, his entire body like a fireball crashing into the mountains and rivers.
Boom—
A large pit filled with thick smoke appeared on the ground, Tai Yu's eyes wide open, limbs spread out, his mouth twitching... Wait, Senior, didn't you tell to speak the truth...?!
Two figures gradually appeared in the pit, one man and one bull.
Chen Xun stood with his hands behind his back, exuding the deanor of a master: "Tai Yu, which eye of yours saw absorb his heavenly tribulation? I told you to speak properly, not to spout nonsense."
"Moo!" Black Bull snorted, splattering a bit of saliva on Tai Yu's face. Big Brother is a dignified person, how can you, little brother, be so bad at speaking?
Tai Yu was on the verge of tears, his body weak, just like before, and he used all his strength to let out a low roar: "Senior, Tai Yu understands!"
