Lin Zixuan paused for a mont upon hearing that.
The Fifth Ancestor... Zhong Ming?
Lin Zixuan had heard of this legendary figure from the older generation, the absolute leader of the righteous path in the East Continent.
Zhong Ming's deeds were nurous indeed.
His many legendary events were widely spread back in the Profound Yellow Realm.
Now, after being mad for so many years, whenever ntioned by these elders, their mouths were full of sighs.
But overall, he was several generations apart from her, still quite distant.
She carefully recalled and rembered that her master indeed had ntioned him.
"Master indeed ntioned him once, also telling and Brother Prince that if we ever had the chance to et Senior Zhong Ming, we must be respectful, as he's a remarkable person."
Chu Huaixu couldn't help but slightly purse his lips upon hearing this.
He internally complained, "Then why the hell don't you let save him?!"
Chu Huaixu continued to ask:
"Did he say anything else?"
"He and Brother Prince did ntion one more thing." Lin Zixuan answered.
She hesitated a bit internally and felt that she could still tell Chu Huaixu.
Because she knew deep down what her master ant when instructing her to follow him.
It's the sa as when she was instructed to follow Qin Xuexiao.
Just that, in her young heart, it felt strange.
Also, because he killed her childhood sweetheart, there was inevitably so resistance in her heart.
However, in serious matters, she would definitely help and do what she could.
The girl knew very well that her master didn't care about anything, except for one thing—the celestial catastrophe!
With such solemn orders, it must be related to the celestial catastrophe.
As one of the world's protagonists, this petite girl had a strong sense of justice.
She spoke:
"Master once told Brother Prince that once the celestial catastrophe arrives, when cultivators from Kunlun Cave Heaven descend en masse to the Profound Yellow Realm, he must imdiately go to the Daoist Sect to seek Senior Zhong Ming!"
Chu Huaixu furrowed his brows upon hearing this.
"But without , there's no one in the world who can save my Fifth Martial Uncle; he'll still be in a state of madness, so what's the use?" He tried to elicit more information.
Lin Zixuan, naive, naturally took the bait imdiately.
"That, I don't know. Anyway, that's what master said."
"Then didn't your Brother Prince inquire further?" Chu Huaixu added.
"He did. He asked the master for the reason to seek Zhong Ming."
"What did your master say?"
"He said we'll know when the ti cos. He ntioned that Senior Zhong Ming might have sothing, but whether he'd give it to Brother Prince depends on personal fate."
Chu Huaixu lowered his eyes, pondering over this sentence, and then remarked, "So, your master couldn't actually predict either."
If it could be predicted, then he should know whom Zhong Ming would give that thing to.
But listening to this, it seed he knew the Night Venerable Fruit Position was indeed with Zhong Ming?
This made him look at this old man Ming Xuanji with newfound respect.
"With rely the cultivation of the Eighth Realm, he could achieve this?" he thought.
It's not that Chu Huaixu, now interacting more with Ninth Realm powerhouses, had beco arrogant, looking down on even the Eighth Realm.
Simply, compared to the defying Divinity Transformation Fruit Position, the Eighth Realm cultivator seed really lacking.
He squinted slightly, looking up at the sky.
He always found one thing very strange.
"Am I really a variable?"
The future that Ming Xuanji divined didn't include .
Therefore, they regard as a variable, even wishing to set things right.
The Dao Ancestor's proverbs left behind don't include either.
Thus, initially, Old Jiang Zhi also didn't favor , thinking I was a variable.
He preferred Xiaoxu he found at the mountain base, and favored that Evil Sword.
Of course, another reason is his jealousy, and I'm just too damned handso!
"But, based on everything that happened in the Daoist Ancestor Inheritance Secret Realm, the Dao Ancestor... clearly knows !"
"He definitely foresaw !"
From the Dao Ancestor's perspective, I don't seem to be a variable.
But the question is... why leave such Daoist Ancestor's proverbs?
The left version doesn't match!
This has always been a source of confusion for Chu Huaixu.
During his ti in the Daoist Ancestor Inheritance Secret Realm, when the Dao Ancestor called his na, and in so subsequent contacts, he had goosebumps several tis.
Many things are deeply terrifying upon reflection.
Just due to the Fearless Sword Intent, he couldn't feel fear... which is quite peculiar.
"To put it simply, whether it's the Dao Ancestor or Ming Xuanji, they are doing the sa thing—exploring the celestial secrets!"
The difference is, in the version the Dao Ancestor explored, Chu Huaixu was included.
The version Ming Xuanji explored excluded Chu Huaixu.
"Because if it was that the system's status was too high, blocking Ming Xuanji, he'd see a fog in certain areas."
"Rather than never existing."
"It's impossible that the entire version doesn't have any trace of ."
He's always had a bit of a player mindset.
After all, before he crossed over, 'Borrowed Sword' was rely a ga.
Yet, after more interactions with the Dao Ancestor, many places increasingly felt bizarre, including each text during the Daoist Ancestor's Seal!
Chu Huaixu looked at the sky, watching the clouds roll and unroll above, unable to restrain his inner thoughts.
"Dao Ancestor, oh Dao Ancestor."
"Did they make an error in the celestial secret exploration, completely heading in the wrong direction..."
"Or is it that everything was your arrangent all along?"
"Including the Daoist Ancestor's Proverbs, it was actually your intentional guidance."
"Everything was just to accelerate the developnt of so tilines," the Dead Fox thought.
"What Ming Xuanji, that old blind man, could 'see' was nothing more than..."
"What you wanted him to see!"
"It was the celestial secrets you had altered!"
...
...
Night slowly deepened.
Lin Zixuan moved back into the Junzi Temple.
Han Shuangjiang actually got along quite well with her, and the two had already established a nice friendship, so she didn't mind having an extra person in the room.
As for Xiaoxu, he was even more indifferent about adding a family mber.
This person seed to have no strong opinions.
Whatever Chu Huaixu intended, he intended as well.
The next day, he woke up early and headed to the small courtyard where Zhong Ming resided.
Today was the day for the treatnt.
Sect Leader Xiang Yan was already waiting outside the courtyard.
According to the original schedule, this ti Daoist Sect's Second Elder Tai Tingbai should have accompanied him, ensuring Chu Huaixu's safety.
The change in personnel was purely because Tai Tingbai, after obtaining the Origin Fragnt, was still in seclusion digesting it.
Chu Huaixu's master, Shen Man, was doing the sa.
On the day Chu Huaixu refined the Origin Fragnt, it took him a long ti.
These cultivation giants might take even longer.
Because this process might also bring them an opportunity for a breakthrough.
Jiang Zhi had told Chu Huaixu that Tai Tingbai's seclusion this ti might take a minimum of two months.
If it lasts longer, it might extend to half a year.
Of course, compared to the seclusions in the Kunlun Cave Heaven that often start from over a decade, it was nothing.
"He's here." Xiang Yan looked at Chu Huaixu, smiling.
He was increasingly satisfied with this disciple under his sect.
As one of the leaders of the righteous path and the Sect Leader of the Daoist Sect.
He lived in an era when a great cataclysm of the heavens and earth was approaching.
The truth was, he carried a heavy burden on his shoulders, and the pressure in his heart was imnse.
Had Xiang Yan not been bald since childhood, he would have attributed the baldness to excessive anxiety.
But after Chu Huaixu appeared, he felt much of the pressure had lessened.
"This kid is reliable," was Xiang Yan's assessnt.
Moreover, there was now hope for curing the Fifth Martial Uncle.
Xiang Yan admitted that he was no match for the Fifth Martial Uncle.
"Once the Fifth Martial Uncle wakes up, he can take over the position of the Observatory Master at the Junzi Temple."
"Many decisions could then be handled by him."
"With him around, everyone would feel reassured," Xiang Yan thought to himself.
At this thought, he called out to Chu Huaixu, "Let's go."
"Yes, Master."
Inside the house, looking at Zhong Ming, who now showed so signs of aging, still making the Victory Cake.
Yet the old man's expression had obviously changed from before.
When Chu Huaixu first t him, he even seed sowhat senile, with saliva occasionally drooling from the corner of his mouth.
Now, at least he appeared much more serene and peaceful.
"Fifth Martial Uncle."
"Fifth Ancestor."
Although the other party couldn't understand, they still followed protocol and bowed first.
Chu Huaixu had received a great gift from him, and naturally, he respected him.
"Go ahead." Xiang Yan instructed, indicating to Chu Huaixu that he could begin.
The Dead Fox nodded and moved beside Zhong Ming, now proficient in his task.
However, this ti, after opening a Celestial Level Treasure Chest and obtaining the Pure Yang bloodline, his strength of Nan Liujing was greatly enhanced.
Additionally, his personal realm had also significantly improved, and the treatnt efficiency was expected to increase dramatically.
For this, he was quite hopeful.
Chu Huaixu raised his left hand, and three golden characters imdiately appeared on his palm.
Warming golden rays flowed toward Zhong Ming.
He kept an eye on Zhong Ming's treatnt progress.
Xiang Yan stood to the side, guarding the two, to prevent any unforeseen incidents.
Although the last ti Zhong Ming suddenly experienced abnormalities, it ultimately resulted in a positive outco. Chu Huaixu gained imnse fortune from it, but everyone thought it was still better to be cautious.
After all, this kid was too important now.
His importance exceeded that of the fated individual!
Looking at the treatnt progress, Chu Huaixu felt a surge of joy.
"The efficiency has tripled!"
This far exceeded his expectations.
With this progress, Zhong Ming might recover completely within two years!
Which ans, before Shen Man enters the Origin Spirit Realm, he should be able to recover.
"The Daoist Sect will have another backbone," he thought.
And just then, as the healing progress ticked up another notch, a fleeting clarity appeared in Zhong Ming's sowhat clouded eyes.
Despite being previously insane and unaware of anything external, unable to comprehend any words spoken to him.
Yet, he slowly turned his head towards Chu Huaixu and suddenly asked tentatively:
"Child, are you called... Chu Huaixu?"
