Longevity begins with marrying your sister-in-law

Chapter 654 Heavenly Punishment!

"Among the Eight Saints, the first to become a Saint was the Cloud Saint."

"There was a long gap afterwards."

"Then the Pure Saint appeared, rising rapidly through the ranks, overwhelming all the geniuses of his generation, seizing the spiritual treasures of heaven and earth with invincible power, and finally becoming a saint!"

"There are even rumors that Yun Sheng intervened to stop it because he was afraid of it!"

"And the Spirit Saint actually came after the Killing Saint."

The Artifact Saint recalled.

"Oh, and there's another rumor that Ling Sheng is Yun Sheng's disciple, but neither of them has responded to whether it's true or not, and over time, it's been forgotten."

It happened suddenly to him.

He would have forgotten about the Three Saints long ago if Chen Xuan hadn't suddenly asked about them.

"Master and Apprentice"

"Yun Sheng has made a move?"

Chen Xuan muttered to himself, "Then what became of the relationship between Qing Sheng and Yun Sheng?"

"do not know!"

The Artifact Saint shook his head. "The three Supreme Saints are very mysterious to each other, and they basically don't communicate with us."

Ultimately, it comes down to a huge difference in status and strength.

Of the five, he and Killing Saint were the best, but they didn't have much contact. As for Flower Saint, the only woman, she had always been alone.

He looked down on Dao Sheng and Wan Sheng, let alone the Three Saints.

Next, the Artifact Saint carefully explained everything about the flying boat to Chen Xuan.

In a short period of time, he has indeed benefited a lot.

Although the Weapon Saint's strength was only so-so, he was indeed unique in weapon crafting and formation, which explains why the Three Saints sought him out.

And only he could do it.

quickly!

Half a month has passed.

At midday, the sky changed color, and an overwhelming pressure appeared out of nowhere.

"coming!"

The Artifact Saint trembled, looked up at the sky, and after a moment a figure slowly appeared.

Spiritual Saint.

He wore a long blue robe, his long hair was tied up, his hands were behind his back, and his youthful appearance exuded arrogance.

"I have met the Spirit Saint."

The Artifact Saint spoke first, and nodded slightly at him.

"Ok!"

The Spirit Saint replied with a single word, then walked down from above step by step, expressionless.

"How is it?"

He looked at the Artifact Saint and asked.

"This time, five core nodes of the flying boat formation have been added," the Artifact Saint answered truthfully.

"Not bad!"

The sage's face was less cold.

"These are the divine souls of the Eight Desolate Palace and the Emperor Realm of Flowing Cloud Mountain, several hundred in number, but they are much purer than those of the rogue cultivators. They should be able to replenish many core nodes."

The words have fallen!

A black bottle appeared and then flew into the Weapon Saint's hand.

He looked at the bottle in his hand. "It's still far from good!"

"You don't need to worry about that. Just focus on building the flying boat. I'll figure out the rest."

"hehe!"

The Artifact Master smiled and said no more.

Meanwhile, behind the flying boat, a shirtless, burly man was sweating profusely, but his mind was still focused on the two saints.

"Spiritual Saint!"

"Their strength is not weak!"

It was Chen Xuan in disguise; he wanted to take a good look at this Spirit Saint before deciding whether to make a move.

And to verify his suspicions.

At this moment, the Spirit Saint and the Weapon Saint also arrived on the flying boat.

Yun Sheng's gaze swept over all parts of the flying boat, and finally he nodded in satisfaction, a smile appearing on his face. "Thank you for your hard work, Artifact Saint."

"It should."

Although I felt frustrated, I still had to force a smile when I was with him.

"We need to speed it up!"

"The main body of the airship needs to be completed as soon as possible. Time is running out. We also need to go beyond the world to see if it can withstand the pressure from outside."

The outside world is unpredictable.

It needs to be test-flown for a period of time before it can be done.

This timeframe cannot be short; it must be at least tens of thousands of years.

Otherwise, if problems arise, even they will find it difficult to survive.

"millennium!"

"This"

Upon hearing this, the Artifact Saint's expression changed drastically. How could it be possible to complete the main body in a thousand years?

"This was decided by the three of us."

"We don't have enough people, so we'll add more!"

"Just tell me what you need!"

"The three of us have only one request: it must be completed within a thousand years, and there is absolutely no room for negotiation!"

The Holy Spirit's tone left him no chance to refute.

"However, to complete the main body of the flying boat, at least the core must be activated, but this requires a top-tier spiritual object!"

The spacecraft is not something that can be completed simply by putting it into operation.

Many of the formations inside require energy from the core; otherwise, no one knows if they will work.

"It won't be long before we can open up the lower realm, and then a top-tier spiritual item will be delivered. Don't worry."

The Holy Spirit came and went in a hurry.

Chen Xuan also arrived at the Weapon Saint's place at this time.

"So eager?"

He frowned. Furthermore, the Three Saints were unaware of his existence, and the Five Saints were completely oblivious to his current situation.

It seems the new World Tree has completely concealed him.

"Hey!"

The Artifact Master sighed, "This is really going to be the death of me."

However, what he was more curious about was that Chen Xuan did not make a move against Ling Sheng.

After all, this is a great opportunity.

"It's not as simple as you think." Chen Xuan knew what he was thinking, but it wasn't convenient for him to make a move.

If his guess is true, then there's trouble.

The Eight Desolate Palace and Flowing Cloud Mountain.

The ten major powers of the Upper Realm have been completely wiped out.

The Spirit Saint descended and, without distinguishing right from wrong, directly plundered all those above the Emperor Realm.

Now both cases are practically empty shells.

This news spread quickly throughout the entire Upper Domain, causing panic among sects of all sizes.

Even the disciples of the Five Saints sects were terrified.

After all, that was a Spirit Saint.

Some even considered leaving their sects and going into hiding.

And just then.

The Spirit Sect was suddenly struck by lightning, and the Spirit Saint was punished by Heaven, suffering severe injuries and his fate unknown.

Qing Sheng also stepped forward, saying that Ling Sheng had gone astray in his cultivation and was being punished by Heaven, and was now in a deep sleep.

This gradually calmed things down.

Weapon Refining Sect.

When Chen Xuan heard this news, he immediately sneered.

The Artifact Saint looked at him with confusion.

"Won't Heaven intervene?"

After a moment of silence, the Artifact Saint nodded. "As long as we Eight Saints do not indiscriminately slaughter ordinary people, the Heavenly Dao should not intervene."

"So it was Qing Sheng who made the move?"

"About that."

Chen Xuan gazed intently into the distance, "Time heals all wounds, didn't it? It was the same back then."

of course!

Many people probably don't believe it, but the three sages are probably anxious and want to complete the flying boat as soon as possible.

"So how about now?"

The Artifact Saint asked, feeling very uneasy. He even feared that the day of completion would be his death anniversary, and even if he didn't die, he would be severely injured.

"You continue building your airship; don't worry about the rest."

After saying that, Chen Xuan's figure slowly disappeared.

The Weapon Saint sat there quietly, and finally let out a long sigh. Without sufficient strength, everything was in vain!
Lingzong.

Chen Xuan's current identity is Gu Yu, one of the ten elders!
He was also a disciple of the Flower Saint, but at this moment, his true form had been hidden in the sea of ​​consciousness by Chen Xuan using spatial isolation.

"Women should never be underestimated!"

Inside the cave, Chen Xuan couldn't help but sigh. He never expected that one of the ten elders of the Ling Sect, all at the peak of the Emperor Realm, would be a disciple of the Flower Saint.

They may seem harmless, but they are more terrifying than anyone else.

However, Ling Sheng was indeed injured, and the lightning punishment was real, which surprised Chen Xuan.

"Has the will of Heaven truly descended?"

"Or are you referring to the old man?"

Chen Xuan began to speculate. He had been in the Spirit Sect for some time, but during this time the sect was heavily guarded, especially the palace of the Spirit Saint at the top, which no one was allowed to approach.

Even his status as one of the ten elders wouldn't work.

"She's hard to approach!"

"Ancestor, how are you?"

Inside the palace, Xiao Ran, the sect leader of the Spirit Sect, looked at the pale-faced Spirit Saint above with a worried expression.

"puff"

His response was a mouthful of blood from the spirit.

"Ancestor!!!"

Xiao Ran immediately panicked.

"I can't die!"

Ling Sheng spoke coldly, a fierce glint appearing in his eyes.

Heaven didn't care, but unexpectedly he actually made a move. If it weren't for Qing Sheng's intervention, he might have perished this time.

"Haven't you been sleeping all along?"

"When did you wake up?"

suddenly!

A thought flickered in his mind, then he looked at Xiao Ran and said, "Go down."

"Yes!"

Despite his worries, Xiao Ran dared not disobey. After bowing, he immediately left the main hall.

"Come out!"

As his voice faded, an old man in a purple robe slowly appeared.

"The injury is quite serious!"

His first words were not words of concern, but rather a smile on his face.

Why are you happy that I'm injured?

The Holy Spirit was displeased to see his smile.

"He's your master, after all. You can't treat him like this."

The person who arrived was none other than Yun Sheng. Moreover, the rumors circulating outside were true; he was indeed Ling Sheng's master.

"Humph!"

The Spirit Saint snorted coldly, "What are you doing here?"

He wouldn't have done this if it weren't for the need to complete the airship as quickly as possible.

"for you!"

Yun Sheng sent out a beam of spiritual light, which landed in Ling Sheng's hand as a pill.

"This was refined by your master. It has refined a lot of lower realms and will benefit your soul."

The spirit immediately swallowed it.

The next moment, his shattered soul slowly recovered, and his complexion regained some color.

"Ok!"

Yun Sheng nodded in satisfaction, but then his expression turned serious. "I didn't expect the old man to wake up. After that, he won't be able to seize the souls of those Emperor Realm cultivators without restraint."

This directly affects the speed at which the flying boat is built.

"In that case, let's start the war!"

If we can't take direct action, then the Ling Sect, Yun Sect, and Qing Sect should just start a war against those other sects.

"That's what the Qing Sheng meant too."

Yun Sheng spoke.

He had already visited Qingzong before coming here, "but it might take a little longer."

Their target is, of course, the sects of the Five Saints; the Weapon Refining Sect will remain untouched for the time being.

The other sects, when combined, are not considered Saint Realm, but they are not much weaker.

"Do you have any other ideas?"

The sage countered with a question.

"You have too much of a temper."

Then he slapped him, "Don't move, let me comb your hair, it'll help you recover faster. But this old man really hit hard!"

Then his power of the Great Dao emerged, and at that moment it merged with the Great Dao of the Spirit Saint.

In addition to the pills he had previously swallowed.

The Holy Spirit's injuries were healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Dongfuzhong.

Chen Xuan, who was cultivating, suddenly opened his eyes.

"Two Great Dao Powers!"

He then immediately focused on sensing.

"Spirit Saint... there's an even stronger one!"

"It has the same aura as that blazing sun from back then!"

"really!"

Chen Xuan's expression hardened; his guess had indeed been correct.

Even though he had never met Qing Sheng, he was now certain that the three saints were intricately connected and were very likely from the same family.

Although the auras of the Great Dao are different, they share many similarities in essence.

Especially the fluctuations of the Great Dao.

Only through accumulated teaching can such similarities be achieved. Even if two people comprehend the same Dao within the same bead, what they present will be completely different.

The great path is ever-changing, and everyone's understanding of it will be different; they will never be so similar.

He even suspected that the aura was intentional.

"so horrible!"

Chen Xuan was shocked; the three sages were actually a family.

This is equivalent to the entire Upper Realm belonging to their family.

Half a day later.

Yun Sheng's expression was somewhat grim, because although Ling Sheng had recovered considerably thanks to his own efforts and the pills, the punishment from the Heavenly Dao still lingered in his soul.

Even with their combined strength, they couldn't erase it!
"What about calling him Qing Sheng?" Ling Sheng asked him.

The wisp of black lightning remaining in his soul continued to torment it!

This prevented him from fully utilizing the power of the Great Dao.

"no!"

After a moment of contemplation, Yun Sheng shook his head. "That black lightning has completely merged with your soul. If you try to forcibly destroy it, your soul won't be able to withstand it!"

"That old man really went all out!"

Anger flashed in his eyes.

"Is there any other way?" Ling Sheng was extremely agitated, and his eyes were filled with rage. The old man dared to treat him like this this time, so he would definitely torture him properly in the end.

He ruined everything!
"What's the rush!" Yun Sheng glared at him.

"If it's not you, of course you're not in a hurry!"

The Holy Spirit roared in anger.

This scene made Yun Sheng frown and shake his head helplessly. "We can try to draw out that black lightning, but most people probably can't withstand it. At least you need to be at the peak of the Emperor Realm!"

"And lots of them!"

The Emperor Realm is at its peak! There aren't many left now.

Apart from Xiao Ran, only the ten elders of the Spirit Sect are at this level.

“Now that old man is definitely eyeing the three of us. Let’s send ten of them together, Qing Sheng and I. Adding yours, that should be about right.”

Yun Sheng made an estimate.

"quick!"

Ling Sheng's face was gloomy; he didn't want to wait a moment longer.

The black lightning relentlessly tormented his soul, causing him extreme discomfort.

"It will only take one day!"

After leaving his words, Yun Sheng's figure slowly disappeared.

"Come to me, Saint."

The Spirit Saint located Xiao Ran's location and transmitted his voice.

"Ok?"

Xiao Ran dared not delay and immediately went to the main hall.

"Elder, the Sect Master requests your presence!"

The sudden summons immediately made Chen Xuan realize that something must have happened on the Spirit Saint's side.

"Perfect timing, this might just be the opportunity!"

On that day at the Refining Sect, the Spirit Saint was constantly on guard against the Weapon Saint, and Chen Xuan could sense this, which was why he did not take action.

They then followed the visitors and left the cave.

Did they say what it was about?

Walking in mid-air, Chen Xuan asked casually.

"Reporting to Elder Gu, I was unaware."

"Laojiu!"

Just then, a voice came from behind. Chen Xuan turned around and briefly searched Gu Yu's memories. It was Yu Jun, the fifth elder of the Spirit Sect!

"It's the fifth brother!"

Chen Xuan chuckled lightly, "You're going to the sect leader's place too?"

"Oh right! You too?"

Yu Jun was slightly taken aback.

Just as he was in a daze, several figures arrived at the scene.

The Ten Elders of the Spirit Sect.

"what happened?"

The elder who spoke was the strongest, and in no way weaker than Xiao Ran.

"do not know!"

Yu Jun shook his head, looking equally bewildered.

Apart from Chen Xuan, who had guessed some of it, the other nine people present were also like that.

The Grand Elder frowned. "Let's go!"

He flew towards the main hall first.

After a while!
The group arrived at the main hall.

"I've met the sect master!"

Apart from the Grand Elder nodding slightly, everyone else bowed respectfully. Only the Grand Elder was qualified to do so based on his strength and status; the others were not!
"what happened?"

The First Elder spoke first and asked the question.

"It's the Ancestor's intention," Xiao Ran said calmly. "Wait here!"

Upon hearing that it was a Spirit Saint, everyone immediately dared not ask any more questions, including the Grand Elder.

The ten people sat in order.

Chen Xuan sat in the second to last seat on the right.

At this moment, he was sizing up the sect leader of the Spirit Sect.

He has reached the pinnacle of the Emperor Realm and seems to possess some Daoist influence, likely the result of long-term exposure to the Spirit Saint.

As for this elder, he is also strong, no weaker than Xiao Ran.

As for the others, they're not much different.

This is the strongest fighting force of the Spirit Sect.

A day passed quickly.

A figure slowly emerged; it was none other than the Spirit Saint.

The ten people, including Xiao Ran, immediately stood up, bowed to him, and said respectfully, "Greetings, Ancestor!"

"no!"

The response was only two words, quite indifferent, but these people were used to it; the Spirit Saint was always like this.

Ling Sheng walked up and sat down, while Xiao Ran stood to the side.

"Sit first!"

"Thank you, ancestor!"

The ten people answered in unison and then sat down, but this time they were not as casual as before.

With the Holy Spirit here, time suddenly felt incredibly long.

"The injury is quite serious!"

After a brief sensing, Chen Xuan discovered that the Spirit Saint's soul had encountered a problem.

"Is that the punishment sent down by Heaven?"

He sensed a dangerous aura that even made his soul feel uncomfortable.

I don’t know how long it’s been!
Suddenly, space tore open, and figures emerged from the spatial rift.

ten people!

"That person didn't come!"

However, Chen Xuan sensed the fluctuations in the power of the Great Dao.

"Greetings, Lord Spirit Saint."

After the ten people landed, they bowed and shouted.

"Need not!"

Ling Sheng nodded slightly, but not to these people, but to Yun Sheng.

He was researching ways to deal with the old man with Qingzong and Qingsheng. He couldn't keep being hampered by him like this; that would be too unbearable.

And they will definitely take action against the Five Saints later.

They couldn't stand killing a few Emperor-level elders and had to take action, let alone attack the five of them.

next moment!
The Holy Spirit suddenly stood up.

The ten elders dared not sit any longer.

Suddenly, streams of Dao power appeared, sealing off the entire hall.

Everyone is puzzled!

Why is this?

The next moment, the power of the Great Dao transformed into ropes that bound everyone except Xiao Ran.

"Spiritual Saint, why are you doing this???"
