Weird Cultivation: I am the Yellow-skinned Taoist Master

A sun burns in the gray fog.

It was impossible to tell whether it was sword energy or radiance; a dazzling light pierced through heaven and earth.

Wherever its radiance passes.

The three thousand evil gods were all set ablaze, emitting painful and ferocious howls.

Thick black smoke billowed from its body.

Chen Huangpi stared blankly at the sun for a moment.

Within that sun, there was a figure.

The moment the Xuan Yang Sword Master appeared, he transformed into a blazing sun, decisively and resolutely attacking the three thousand evil gods without leaving any room for retreat.

"Don't be afraid, Master. With me here, no one can hurt you today!"

The Xuan Yang Sword Master's voice was utterly cold.

He had been asleep within the Sword Formation Dao Fruit for far too long, so long that his mind was still stuck in the state of ten thousand years ago. He felt anger and killing intent, but also love and care for his new leader.

Chen Huangpi opened his mouth, but didn't know how to say it.

The brass oil lamp said in a complicated tone, "This person is almost at the half-step into the Dao level, but he forcibly woke up at this moment. Perhaps... perhaps..."

Perhaps there will never be another chance.

The half-step to enlightenment is not simply the ultimate state of true immortality.

Even the most advanced immortals can sense a realm close to the Dao, but who can go further and get closer to that realm depends entirely on fate.

Either you achieve instant success.

Or you'll be completely stuck.

If it were someone like Chi Xie, it would be fine. Chi Xie was the master of the Lesser Crimson Heaven. If he descended with the Lesser Crimson Heaven, he could unleash the power of a half-step approaching the Dao.

Even if Little Crimson Heaven is an alternative form of Dao Fruit, it is still a rudimentary form.

The half-step approach to the Dao has no rudimentary form of Dao Fruit, but has a deeper understanding of the rules of heaven and earth. When they make a move, they use the rules to suppress others, making them equally powerful.

But for someone like the Sword Master of Xuan Yang, the breakthrough process was essentially interrupted.

The choices and sacrifices involved are something only the person making truly understands.

"I thought it would be someone else coming to help, but I didn't expect it to be you."

Chen Huangpi said, moved, "Is it worth it for you to do this?"

Hear this.

The figure in the blazing sun gave Chen Huangpi a deep look and said softly, "The sect leader is young. If I don't come out, how can I protect you? The old sect leader is important, but the young sect leader is equally important."

The task of bringing back their old sect leader would not fall to the Xuan Yang Sword Master.

The Void-Piercing Divine Sword only recognizes Chen Huangpi.

Otherwise, the Tai Sui Cult would absolutely not allow Chen Huangpi to put himself in danger.

Therefore, there must be someone of sufficient weight and power to pave the way and protect them.

"Who else but me should be the protector of this path?"

The Sword Master of Xuanyang said firmly, "Master, just do it. No one can hurt you today! No one can touch you, and no one can stop you!"

Because the one standing in front of Chen Huangpi must be him!
"My Way is like the great sun!"

"The blazing sun shines across the nine heavens!"

The Xuan Yang Sword Master's voice resounded through the sky, yet he didn't use any profound techniques to set up such an amazing sword formation.

That blazing sun burned wildly.

Its radiance was like a sharp sword, piercing through all the evil gods around it.

They were all burned as consumables.

"Master, please show me the way!"

With a roar, the Xuan Yang Sword Master caused the blazing sun to expand infinitely, directly engulfing Chen Huangpi.

Chen Huangpi was filled with boundless pride.

Given the Xuan Yang Sword Master's character, how could he possibly disappoint his opponent?

There's also the Tai Sui sect.

After all, it is his own sect, and he is determined to bring the old leader back.

"kill!!!!!"

Chen Huangpi gripped the Void-Piercing Divine Sword tightly.

Buzz! ! ! ! ! !

The Void-Piercing Sword Shadow trembled incessantly as it surged deeper into the gray mist!
The blazing sun, which the Xuan Yang Sword Master had transformed into, remained in front of him.

The surrounding gray fog kept gathering.

"Watch out, that giant gray eye is about to appear!"

Chen Huangpi opened his evil eye between his eyebrows and saw that something was wrong with the gray mist nearby. Large and small vortexes of gray mist were constantly moving towards him.

Gradually, it began to take shape, forming a giant gray eye.

This was far more dangerous and terrifying than the previous one he had encountered.

The key is.

At this moment, Chen Huangpi had not entered the Six Yin God state.

The four sword masters changed the world and forcibly reversed day and night with the power of the sword formation's Dao fruit, but for Chen Huangpi, his day and night never changed.

Offering help is extremely difficult.

One by one, terrifying and malevolent creatures burst forth from the large and small vortexes of gray mist.

There are immortals, true immortals, and many ferocious magical treasures.

The Sword Master of Xuan Yang remained unmoved.

The intense light never stopped for a moment.

Those evil creatures charged forward, but were instantly killed and turned to ashes the moment they appeared.

The evil beings are very powerful.

But the heat of the blazing sun was even more intense!

Chen Huangpi had never felt so personally how powerful a true immortal was. Even Yi Qingzhou had only suppressed his cultivation to fight him back then.

Never before have we seen him leading the charge in such a massive, unstoppable force.

Three black rings appeared at Chen Huangpi's fingertips.

He could sense that the Xuan Yang Sword Master was not only fighting at this moment.

This blazing sun rises and falls in the long river of time.

"Immortals can influence time."

“True immortals can travel through the river of time, and so can those evil beings.”

The brass oil lamp sighed, "This Xuan Yang Sword Master is truly talented. He is not only fighting against these evil beings, but he is also looking for future crises and extinguishing them in advance."

"It would be a real shame if someone like that didn't make it halfway through their career."

Even it felt somewhat sorry for the Xuan Yang Sword Master.

These words, however, only strengthened Chen Huangpi's resolve.

When the opportunity arises, he will definitely imprint the Dao of the Xuan Yang Sword Master on the stone tablet and keep urging it to reach that realm, or even go further.

And just then.

All the gray fog vortexes converged together.

A giant gray eye slowly appeared.

The giant eye was not open, but an extremely terrifying aura emanated from it.

Boom boom boom! ! !
It felt like a heartbeat.

A life seemed to be growing in that giant eye.

And outside the entire Old State.

An endless cloud of gray mist, stirred up by the Daoists of the Jietian Sect, has surged in from all directions, covering the sky and the earth.

The large flag was shrouded in gray mist, its surface extending almost into the gray mist itself.

The Taoists of the Jietian Sect had cold, sinister expressions.

They saw the Master of Xuan Yang Sword.

The blazing sun made no attempt to conceal itself.

But they never had any worries from beginning to end, because everything was going according to plan.

The situation was completely under their control.

"Awaken your spirit! Open your eyes!!!"

The Taoists of the Jietian Sect suddenly waved their large flags.

All the flags intertwined and instantly enveloped the old state. The overlapping of those flags also exuded a strange power that did not belong to the Xuanzhen Dao Realm.

This power flowed into that giant gray eye.

next second!
The giant gray eye opened.

As soon as he opened his eyes, Chen Huangpi's expression changed drastically.

Because within that giant gray eye, there truly was a living being.

That creature was about a thousand feet tall!
Every gesture he made seemed capable of tearing the heavens and earth apart.

Its body was jet black, covered in armor that looked like it was cast from steel, and its face was covered with lines that resembled cracks in the earth.

Furthermore, an ancient, desolate aura and a dark, evil aura enveloped him, transforming into two giant pythons that seemed capable of swallowing the sun and moon.

Two giant pythons were coiled around the creature's arms.

Chen Huangpi roared inwardly, "Huang Er!!!"

The brass oil lamp gritted its teeth and said, "It was our Jingxian Temple's three thousand righteous gods who arranged the formation and combined to create that phantom image of the divine master. That traitor even managed to pull this off!"

The three thousand righteous gods are beings born of Heaven and Earth.

Several eons ago, they were also the protagonists of the world.

Because at that time there was a being called the God.

This deity is the Dao Lord of the ancient world.

The Xuan Yang Sword Master sensed that Chen Huangpi's emotions were somewhat off.

The sunlight, even more so, shone gently upon him, soothing the anxieties in his heart.

"The leader need not worry."

"The upheaval of heaven and earth is about to end, and we are about to enter the next era."

"That god is from a time too ancient to even summon weapons. With me here, it can't cause any trouble!"

To this day, neither the Xuan Yang Sword Master nor the Tai Sui Sect knows what secrets the Jing Xian Temple of the Great Qian Immortal Dynasty holds.

They were simply instinctively wary of it.

Chen Huangpi dared not reveal these things.

Otherwise, they will inevitably be implicated.

But even if the Sword Master of Xuanyang was unaware of this, he wouldn't care.

For him, today he only drew his sword for his young cult leader!
With a whoosh!
A dazzling golden-red sword light stretched across the sky!

The Master of Xuan Yang Sword drew his sword.

It was a very ordinary-looking sword.

The sword is three feet long.

It has no patterns or decorations on it, yet its blade shines with an extreme sword light.

Without hesitation, the Xuan Yang Sword Master raised his sword and slashed down!
The sword light, carrying killing intent, slashed against the heavens!

Within those grey, enormous eyes, the giant, standing a thousand feet tall, immediately opened its mouth and spewed out a distorted, dark beam of light.

Nine-colored Fallen Divine Light!

With a loud bang!!!
The sword light and the nine-colored, fallen divine light collided and exploded on the spot.

The surrounding space crumbled inch by inch.

The enormous, blazing sun crashed violently into that giant gray eye!
Pieces of space shattered.

Powerful auras exploded out!

The figure of the Xuan Yang Sword Master sometimes appeared before Chen Huangpi, and sometimes became ethereal and elusive.

He is sometimes in the past.

Sometimes, and sometimes now.

Sometimes in the future!

This battle, which was incomprehensible to ordinary people, gave Chen Huangpi a headache.

However, he still kept his evil eyes wide open, staring intently at the Xuan Yang Sword Master's every move.

"Master, are you learning my swordsmanship?"

"Yes, I am learning."

The Sword Master of Xuan Yang was somewhat surprised, as his swordsmanship had flaws.

After all, he had attempted to break through to the halfway level, and although he forcibly interrupted it, it still benefited him greatly. He realized his shortcomings in swordsmanship and knew roughly where he was lacking.

"My swordsmanship is not outstanding."

“Master, if you learn this, it might affect your own path.”

"This is not worth it for you."

When an immortal breaks through to become a true immortal, it is to understand their own Dao.

A true immortal goes a step further, aiming to thoroughly understand their own Dao, refining it to perfection, much like alchemy, so that they may have the opportunity to interpret the Dao of Heaven through their own actions.

The Xuan Yang Sword Master said, "Even the old sect leader's path is not suitable for you. As the sect leader, you should forge your own path."

"I know."

Chen Huangpi said earnestly, "But I just want to take a look, that's all."

Upon hearing this, the Xuan Yang Sword Master remained silent for a while.

He continued his battle with the enormous figure.

"That's all. Well then, let's see."

"With me here, no one will be able to disturb you."

Having said that, the Xuan Yang Sword Master thoroughly revealed the sword path he had come to understand throughout his life, using the blazing sun as a guide, to Chen Huangpi without reservation.

Every sword light, every wisp of flame, is the most precise explanation of its Dao.

gradually……

The dried tangerine peel seems almost imperceptible.

With a casual wave of his hand, golden sword light flashed from his fingertips.

The Six Yin Gods belong to Yin and represent the meaning of death.

The Dao of the Xuan Yang Sword Master is not as bad as he claims. He did indeed enlighten Chen Huangpi, but in reality, no Dao would affect Chen Huangpi, because he inherently encompasses all Daoist practices.

All rules will have to be established in the future.

If Chen Huangpi is truly just a cultivator, then when he breaks through to the point of being close to the Dao, his Dao Fruit must also be the most perfect and closest to the true world.

at the same time.

In the spleen temple of Chenhuangpi.

The golden stone tablet was covered with countless characters that flashed constantly, imprinting the swordsmanship of the Xuan Yang Sword Master on it.

"Master, I'm going to cut off this eye."

"Watch closely, my next sword strike will transform life into death, from the extreme of yang to the origin of yin."

The Xuan Yang Sword Master answered Chen Huangpi softly.

He was afraid that his teachings might influence the young religious leader.

They only talk about sword techniques, but refuse to say it's the way of the sword.

Chen Huangpi watched silently.

Immediately afterwards, he felt as if time around him had slowed down at that moment.

Meanwhile, the Xuan Yang Sword Master held his magic sword and lightly slashed down from above.

It can be enhanced by three black rings.

Chen Huangpi saw that the Xuan Yang Sword Master seemed to have the past, present, and future all superimposed together at this moment. This sword slashed downwards, and that was all. There was no dazzling sword light. It was just a simple slash.

But a great sun.

But it expands wildly from Chen Huangpi's alternative perspective.

The color changed from golden red to a vivid, blood-red hue in an instant.

The sun kept expanding, then turned from red to white, and then rapidly contracted when it expanded to an unbelievable extent.

The sun is collapsing.

All the light and shadow in the world were absorbed into the collapsing sun at that moment.

Even the concept of darkness does not exist.

Or rather, even time cannot escape the gravity of this collapsing sun.

And then……

The sun turned into a sunspot.

Countless lights and shadows, and boundless power, erupted from that tiny black dot in an instant.

All of this was seen from the perspective of the Evil Eye, enhanced by the three black rings.

In this world.

Chen Huangpi felt as if less than a moment had passed.

That is, the moment the black spot formed and then exploded, the Xuan Yang Sword Master's sword fell down.

A thin black line appeared in the sky.

The figure within the gray giant eye continued to move, seemingly unaffected, unleashing three thousand extraordinary destructive abilities as it charged towards the Xuan Yang Sword Master and Chen Huangpi.

Chen Huangpi didn't quite understand.

The Xuan Yang Sword Master smiled calmly and said, "It has already been cut down by me in the future. Just wait a moment, and the result of my sword will soon be overwritten from the future."

They said to wait a moment.

But in reality, there's no time at all.

Just as the Xuan Yang Sword Master finished speaking, countless lights and shadows emerged from that thin black line.

Light and shadow swept across everything around them in an instant.

It was as if a scroll had been unfurled.

The future outcome was laid bare at this moment.

Chen Huangpi took a closer look.

Then the thousand-foot-tall figure that was about to attack, along with all the divine powers it unleashed, vanished in the wind as if it were an illusion.

Then look at that giant gray eye in the sky.

The giant eye was also covered.

In the future, it too will be cut off.

"This swordsmanship..."

Chen Huangpi couldn't help but exclaim, "Why is it so terrifying? That figure and those eyes, in my opinion, are clearly no weaker than you."

The Xuan Yang Sword Master said, "Because it has no Dao."

"In the end, it's just an inanimate object."

"I cover the present with the future. As long as I live, even if the Taoist of the Jietian Sect breaks that banner, he still cannot summon it again."

In a sense.

The Sword Master of Xuan Yang used his own swordsmanship to forcefully suppress this giant gray eye.

Although it is an inanimate object, it can be summoned at any time.

But now, he won't allow it!
He was extremely shocked to see Chen Huangpi.

The Sword Master of Xuanyang smiled and continued, "Master, there are nine levels of immortals. After the nine levels comes the True Immortal. There is no distinction between the first, second, and third levels among the True Immortals."

"Even among true immortals, there are differences in rank."

"Manipulating time is a skill possessed by all true immortals; to possess it is to be as good as not possessing it."

"Therefore, the debate about superiority and inferiority is a contest of the Dao." "Although it may not reach the level of a contest of the Dao, it is still a matter of losing by a hair's breadth and being worlds apart."

Hear these words.

Chen Huangpi finally realized something.

The true immortals originally emphasized the understanding of the Dao.

Those who possess power but lack the Way are strong, but only in comparison to immortals. True immortals with the Way can easily slay those without the Way, perhaps even more easily than an immortal crushing an ordinary cultivator.

At the very least, during the reign of Emperor Dakang, the emperor had the means to deal with immortals.

But for a Daoless True Immortal to kill a Daoist True Immortal is something that shouldn't even be considered.

Unless you possess a powerful treasure, but that has absolutely nothing to do with your own cultivation level.

"If I were to become a true immortal, I wonder if I could achieve that level."

Chen Huangpi couldn't help but say, "Could it be that I also need to comprehend my own path?"

The path he spoke of was not the flawless path of the Dao Lord that he would follow in the future.

Rather, it is simply the realm of a true immortal, the Dao cultivated by oneself.

The Xuan Yang Sword Master gave Chen Huangpi a deep look and said, "Master, if you become a true immortal, you will definitely understand your own Dao, but if you want to unleash this sword strike from me..."

"Or rather, achieving similar power is not as difficult as you think."

"how do I say this?"

Chen Huangpi was even more confused. Could it be that the Xuan Yang Sword Master had seen through the fact that he possessed an even more powerful force?

Is it the Six Yin Gods?
It was still the mask of the deity of Taixu.

The Xuan Yang Sword Master pointed at Chen Huangpi's three black rings and said, "I can't quite figure this thing out. I don't know if it's a magic weapon or some kind of heaven-defying technique, but this thing contains the past, future, and present. If used properly, it's no weaker than me."

The three black rings are the power of that mud Buddha.

The Mud Buddha is also the physical body of a Buddha who is close to the Tao.

Although its power dissipated considerably, in the end only these three black rings remained, along with the clay Taoist deity in the Spleen Temple.

But the Xuan Yang Sword Master could see it.

If these three black rings are used properly and understood, their power is truly formidable.

"Past, present, and future are artificial divisions."

"The river of time is also a concept."

"My Tai Sui Sect possesses the sword technique of 'Ten Thousand Swords Return to One,' so why can't these three black rings also be unified into one body?"

The Xuan Yang Sword Master smiled and said to Chen Huangpi, "Master, you can think about what I'm saying carefully. We have plenty of time, no rush, no rush."

Chen Huangpi nodded, lost in thought.

The blazing sun continued to push into the gray fog.

The Void-Piercing Divine Sword was no longer humming; it merely provided a muffled guidance.

The brass oil lamp remained completely silent.

It looked at the Xuan Yang Sword Master with a somewhat complicated expression.

At this moment, the brass oil lamp thought of Taiyizi, and also of the other sword masters.

"The older generation of this Tai Sui sect really doesn't hold back when teaching the younger generation!"

"The Sword Master of Xuanyang is using a method to impart his understanding of the True Immortal realm to Chen Huangpi."

He was afraid of mishandling Chen Huangdai.

That's why the wording is so subtle.

Back then, in the dantian world of those 100,000 mountains and the Heihe River.

After discovering Chen Huangpi's method of Tai Sui teaching, Taiyizi recognized him as a successor of Tai Sui teaching.

So, he immediately fought desperately, determined to send Chen Huangpi away no matter what.

Not only that, but he also practiced all the methods taught by Tai Sui.

At that time, Taiyizi had no idea that Chen Huangpi was the abbot's disciple.

Now, the Xuan Yang Sword Master is patiently instructing him.

The brass oil lamp sighed deeply.

Now, no matter how Chen Huangpi wants to help the Tai Sui Sect, as long as he doesn't reveal Huang Tian's identity, it won't say a word.

But that's it.

A cold, indifferent voice suddenly rang out.

"Chen Huangpi, have you learned it?"

This voice did not belong to the Xuan Yang Sword Master.

Chen Huangpi frowned and saw a terrifying figure gradually walking towards him from within the gray mist.

The man wore a straw hat and a white robe.

He carried a large flag in one hand and had the other hand behind his back. He had an extraordinary demeanor, and his aura was completely undetectable.

With each step he took, the surrounding gray fog surged towards him like a monstrous wave.

Even the brilliance of the blazing sun was suppressed by it.

Chen Huangpi's face turned extremely ugly.

"Looks like he hasn't learned it."

The man sneered, "But you won't have the chance to learn it in the future."

"Who are you?"

"The Heaven-Slaying Sect, the Son of the Underworld!"

The Xuan Yang Sword Master coldly revealed this person's origins, his eyes filled with disbelief: "More than ten thousand years ago, you were just an ordinary True Immortal, but now you have actually reached the half-step into the Dao?"

Yes, this Child of the Underworld is a being who has taken a half-step into the Dao.

Moreover, he and the Xuan Yang Sword Master started their seclusion at almost the same time. Ten thousand years ago, the other party was not even worthy of carrying his shoes, but now he has taken the lead and reached the level of half-step into the Dao.

This was truly unbelievable to the Sword Master of Xuan Yang.

It's not that he's petty or jealous of those who surpass him.

But no matter how you look at it, it's impossible.

The Underworld God Child doesn't have that much time to polish his realm to perfection before attempting to break through to the half-step into the Dao. Even if the path he takes is the same as the one I chose, both involving comprehending the Dao of my own sect leader, it's still impossible.

There simply isn't enough time!
"Sword Master Xuanyang, you underestimate the power of my sect leader."

The Underworld God Child sneered: "There are several like me who are half-step into the Dao in my sect, but does your Tai Sui Sect have any?"

The Xuan Yang Sword Master remained silent.

The Tai Sui sect did exist back then, and there was more than one person involved.

However, after that great battle, the sect leader fell into the gray mist, and the sect leader of the Jietian Sect disappeared without a trace.

Even Emperor Chen never appeared in the world again.

The cultivators of both the Great Qian Immortal Dynasty and the Immortal Realm blamed everything on the other side.

Both the Tai Sui Sect and the Jie Tian Sect possessed a half-step shortcut to enlightenment, and back then, they went on a rampage towards the Heavenly River Battlefield, just like the Immortal Realm.

Since then, the half-step shortcut of the Tai Sui sect has never returned.

There was no word from them, and their fate was unknown.

But now it seems that the leader of the Jietian Sect not only murdered his own leader back then, but the great battle on the Tianhe battlefield that followed may also have been secretly orchestrated by the other side.

The half-step shortcut taught by Tai Sui may truly be gone forever.

But the Jie Tian Sect is different.

The Underworld God said sarcastically, "Even a lion uses its full strength to hunt a rabbit. To deal with your Tai Sui Sect, those True Immortals alone would be enough, but I feel it's not enough."

"Your Tai Sui sect has too deep a foundation."

"And the sword formation Dao Fruit left behind by your sect leader."

"If we want to strike with a single blow, someone must come to our aid from the sidelines!"

The Taoists of the Jietian Sect had long been prepared for this day.

It can be said that the entire process was about predicting the outcome.

There's no reason to expect to guard against thieves the day before, since one can only be a thief for a thousand days.

Moreover, the Tai Sui Sect was kept completely in the dark by the Jie Tian Sect from beginning to end. This move truly exploited the Tai Sui Sect's weaknesses.

The entire sect was sustained solely by the Sword Formation Dao Fruit.

There was not a single figure present to oversee the situation.

The Xuan Yang Sword Master gripped his sword tightly, his face deathly pale.

He glanced at Chen Huangpi with a complicated expression.

Then, he resolutely said to the Son of the Underworld, "This is my sect leader. If you are willing to let him go, I will agree to any request you make."

"Master of Xuan Yang Sword, you are too naive."

The Son of the Underworld shook his head and said, "Whether it's you or him, I won't let anyone go."

"Since you've gone this far, it's clearly aimed at destroying your Tai Sui Sect."

"Otherwise, why would I have bothered to come here in person!"

"Master of the Xuan Yang Sword..."

Chen Huangpi clenched his fists, staring blankly at the Xuan Yang Sword Master.

"Having taken a half-step shortcut, he is already invincible in the old state."

The Sword Master of Xuan Yang said bitterly, "If I had time, I wouldn't be afraid of him, but unfortunately..."

"No, you don't have the time."

The Underworld God said calmly, "If either of you or the Profound Yin Sword Master arrives at this time, we will come to kill you and will not give you any chance to break through."

"This is the general trend, and you have no choice under it."

"Also, Master Xuanyang Sword, you should throw away your sword."

At this point, the Underworld God sneered, "Don't think I can't see that there's something wrong with your sword. One-tenth of the power of that sword formation's Dao Fruit is hidden in your sword."

The Xuan Yang Sword Master gripped his longsword tightly, his face turning extremely grim: "What's so terrifying about being half a step closer to the Dao?"

"You wouldn't know if you were only halfway there."

The Son of the Underworld said coldly, "The power you are hiding is clearly visible to me. Even as a half-cultivator, you can stand on the river of time."

"You have no secrets from me."

"That ten percent of its power can only hold me off for a while, it's not enough to kill me."

"..."

The Xuan Yang Sword Master's eye twitched as he asked, voicing his confusion: "How did you break through halfway? Was it because your sect leader was hiding in that tomb? You are inferior to me in every way, so how did you manage to reach this point?"

"If anyone else asks, I won't even bother to answer."

The Underworld God sneered, "But if it were you, the Xuan Yang Sword Master, I would make sure you die knowing why. After all, back then I was indeed inferior to you in every way, and in this life I could only stop at the pinnacle of True Immortal."

After saying that, he took off the straw hat from his head.

Pointing to a golden nail between his eyebrows, he said, "This nail is the Taixu Divine Nail. My sect leader transformed it with his Dao and nailed it into my primordial spirit and my physical body."

“A thousand years ago, when I reached the pinnacle of True Immortal cultivation, the sect leader bestowed this nail upon me.”

"Three hundred years later, I broke through to the half-step approach to the Dao."

When the Son of the Underworld spoke of this, his tone was full of reverence, and he was sincerely grateful to his master.

But Chen Huangpi lowered his head.

The emotions in his eyes were almost impossible to suppress.

The brass oil lamp roared in his heart: "Where did the Lord of the Heavenly Intercepting Sect get the Taixu Divine Nail? Wasn't that thing created by that traitor? And look at this Underworld God Child, he seems to have no idea how terrifying this thing is."

"Does he actually think this is some kind of good fortune?"

When the brass oil lamp saw the nail, it already had the urge to eat it.

This is absolutely the genuine Taixu Divine Nail.

Yi Qingzhou had clearly stated this before.

The Taixu Divine Nails were designed for people to possess bodies.

This is an anchor point.

Once nailed to the Taixu Divine Nail, one cannot separate from it, from the physical body to the primordial spirit and even the true form. Only when the changes in heaven and earth end will this body be taken over.

Chen Daoxing used the Taixu Divine Nails to trap and kill Yi Qingzhou and other Taoists.

This prevents him from returning to the Great Qian Immortal Dynasty to reveal the truth.

However, in the Great Qian Immortal Dynasty, the Taixu Divine Nail became a blessing bestowed upon his disciple by the leader of the Jietian Sect, enabling him to break through halfway through his cultivation journey.

Anyone who knows the secret of the Taixu Divine Nail.

Even the Son of the Underworld could not accept this.

Chen Huangpi gritted his teeth and said, "That Jietian Sect Leader must have a very deep connection with that traitor. Perhaps they had already conspired from the very beginning."

But what's the use of knowing all this now?

Could it be that if word got out, it would scare the Son of the Underworld to death?
Didn't you see that even the Xuan Yang Sword Master was heartbroken?

however……

What Chen Huangpi didn't expect was...

At this moment, the Xuan Yang Sword Master suddenly laughed: "I was wondering how you broke through to the half-step approach, but I didn't expect you to use external force. That puts my mind at ease."

The Underworld God's expression turned cold: "So what if there are external forces? I am also a genuine half-step close to the Dao. Sword Master Xuan Yang, you truly make me laugh."

"Based on this, you dare to say you're relieved?"

"You think you can kill me?"

"Whether to execute or not will be decided later."

The Xuan Yang Sword Master smiled and said, "But you've misunderstood one thing. The reason I breathed a sigh of relief wasn't because you relied on external forces, but because your Jie Tian Sect should have no backup plan."

Hear this.

The son of the Underworld God's pupils contracted, and he said urgently, "You were testing me earlier!!!"

The Xuan Yang Sword Master said indifferently, "Yes, it's just a pity that I'm very disappointed. I've shown my weakness, said both good and bad things, and even pretended to be scared by you. In the end, your Jie Tian Sect only sent you, a halfway through your journey."

"I thought your cult leader was here too."

Disciples of the Tai Sui sect, after joining the sect, do not know what fear is.

What's there to be afraid of?

Our leader is close to the Dao.

The only and most powerful Dao Lord in the world is also the closest friend of his own sect leader.

Let alone a shortcut.

Even if a being nearly at the level of Tao were to attack, no one from the Tai Sui Sect would bow down.

The reason why the Xuan Yang Sword Master said those words and acted that way was entirely to test whether the Jie Tian Sect had any other tricks up its sleeve besides the Underworld God Child.

For example, the leader of the Intercepting Heaven Sect...

The magic sword in the Xuan Yang Sword Master's hand slowly cracked open with fissures.

An extremely terrifying power gradually seeped out from those cracks.

Even a trace of that power would be enough to crush a True Immortal.

One-tenth of the power of the Tai Sui Sect's sword formation Dao Fruit had been secretly hidden within the Xuan Yang Sword Master's magic sword from the very beginning.

Meanwhile, the expression on the face of the Underworld God kept changing.

"This one-tenth of its power won't kill me!"

"It can't hurt my leader either."

"Where did you get the confidence to make those arrogant remarks earlier?"

The Underworld God could not see through the Xuan Yang Sword Master. He felt that the Xuan Yang Sword Master had gone mad, no, the entire Tai Sui Sect had gone mad.

They seemed genuinely prepared for their leader to arrive.

But why?
Based on that sword formation Dao Fruit?

However, that sword formation's Dao Fruit could only unleash 35% of its power...

He couldn't even get past the Dao Zheng hurdle.

The Xuan Yang Sword Master coldly said, "You explained things to me clearly before, so I'll explain things to you clearly too. You ask me where my confidence comes from? Fine, I'll tell you!"

After saying that, he pointed at Chen Huangpi: "This is my cult leader, this is my confidence!"

"Master, though I am a rotten fish and a shrimp."

"But since there are no more big fish left, it's best to wrap up the net as soon as possible."

Hear this.

Without the slightest hesitation, Chen Huangpi grabbed the Void-Piercing Divine Sword.

The eye of the Void-Piercing Divine Sword opened to its fullest extent at this moment.

The sword shadow trembled violently!

Incomparably sharp and pure sword light burst forth from it.

The aura of the Void Sword Shadow is released as soon as it is revealed.

The entire Tai Sui sect will be able to sense it.

And within the sword formation of the Tai Sui Sect.

The four sword masters sitting cross-legged on the Five Elements Sword Peak simultaneously unleashed a terrifying aura.

Four longswords pierced directly into the Five Elements Sword Peak!

As for that last sword peak...

The four sword masters looked over there.

A sword slowly emerged from the sword peak.

This sword is exactly the same as the Void-Piercing Divine Sword.

It is its clone!
Boom!
The clone of the Void-Piercing Divine Sword pierced directly into the last sword peak.

The sword array Dao Fruit, covering the entire Old State, was traversed by the faint, illusory shadow of the river of time.

"All disciples of Tai Sui, obey my command!"

"Defy fate! Exchange for ten thousand years of time!!!!!"

"Defying fate" refers to reversing one's own life and death, burning one's own lifespan. All disciples of the Tai Sui Sect, from top to bottom, who are included in the sword formation, must do this.

But time will pass in vain!

The goal is to transport the entire Old State back to that day more than 14,000 years ago.

On that day, the leader of the Tai Sui Cult fell into the gray fog.

"Crazy, crazy!"

"You're all a bunch of lunatics!!!"

The expression on Ming Shenzi's face changed drastically. He didn't even have the mind to fight with Xuan Yang Sword Master. He immediately jumped into the River of Time and went upstream, wanting to return to the previous point in time and escape from this old state.

Because those who follow the Tai Sui cult are completely insane.

They want to send the entire Old State back more than 10,000 years.

At the moment the Tai Sui Cult Leader fell into the gray fog, he was guided back.

If it were to reverse the timeline of the Great Qian Immortal Dynasty, even if the entire Tai Sui Sect were to gamble everything, it would be impossible. But if it were limited to the Old State, and one were willing to risk their own life, then it would indeed be possible.

At that time, all beings in the old state will return to more than 10,000 years ago.

But this can only last for one day and one night!
These people completely disregard the fact that if they fail, the backlash from the river of time will erase the entire Old State from space and time, leaving not even a ripple behind.

They're a complete bunch of lunatics!

If we don't escape from Jiuzhou, we'll all die.

Unfortunately, at that crucial moment, the person who least wanted the Tai Sui Cult to fail became his son, the Underworld God.

however……

The Son of the Underworld, who had jumped into the river of time, now looked at the rising moon in despair.

In the bright moonlight, there also stood a figure.

The sword in the figure's hand also shattered inch by inch, with one-tenth of the sword formation's power hidden within it.

Looking to the future.

A blazing sun blocked their retreat. (End of Chapter)
