From a martial arts disciple to a god through countless trials and tribulations

Chapter 78 Tian Yan Dao

Chen Xuan was extremely agile and quickly chased the fleeing monk from the Demon Suppression Division through the mountains and forests.

"Prisoner, wait for me at the river!"

The female monk from the Demon-Suppressing Division took off all her clothes except for her white inner garment. She was terrified and quickly ran towards the river holding her scarlet armor.

"I won't resist, I won't resist..." The female monk burst into tears, fearing that Chen Xuan would make a wrong judgment and beat her to death.

Even the Cui family's Fire Virtue Master was defeated by Chen Xuan. They, the Yuhua Realm cultivators, were not worth mentioning and could only accept their fate if they were caught... Moreover, Chen Xuan was several times faster than them, so they couldn't escape at all.

More than half an hour later.

Chen Xuan captured twelve fleeing monks from the Demon Suppression Division and, after careful interrogation, confirmed that no one had escaped. He then ordered them to line up and march towards the deep mountains of the Southern Wilderness.

"Get in line, grab my things, and follow me."

In this battle, Chen Xuan seized a lot of spoils.

There are a total of thirteen sets of crimson armor and several sharp weapons comparable to ancient artifacts.

"Go and refine the Noble Phantasm."

Chen Xuan immediately set off and headed for the territory of the old turtle's friends.

The spoils were too much and too big for him to carry by himself, so he had to ask the monks from the Demon Suppression Division for help.

"Senior, we don't have any deep hatred. We don't even know you..."

A group of shirtless monks from the Demon Suppression Division trembled and begged for mercy.

They still felt that everything they had experienced was extremely unreal... Just because they accidentally destroyed a small courtyard by the lake during the fight?
No delusion!

"The great monk of the Cui family took action and burned down the residence of the senior. It has nothing to do with us." A middle-aged male monk felt implicated and wronged.

"I won't argue. It's only natural to pay for breaking something." A monk immediately offered all his valuables.

The deeper they went into the mountains, the slimmer their hope for survival seemed, and the colder they felt in their hearts. Where was the other party taking them?

"..."

Chen Xuan was walking in front, he glanced back at them and said in a deep voice:
"Help me finish my work and I'll let you go."

When these monks from the Demon Suppression Division were caught up, they were so frightened that they threw down their weapons and surrendered, cooperating very well.

Chen Xuan is not a bloodthirsty devil. He has always been very tolerant towards those who pose no threat and are very sensible.

"Senior, the Demon Suppression Division has never allowed us to set foot in the Southern Wilds. This time, the Cui family's chief cultivator, under the orders of the Red Crow City Lord, forcibly brought us into the mountains."

A middle-aged monk said indignantly. After receiving Chen Xuan's assurance, they calmed down a little and talked more.

"This thousand-year-old family is very restless."

Chen Xuan frowned because Yan Yushu told him that the new Lord of Chiya City was from the Cui family of Qinghe.

The group moved forward quickly on the mountain road like a long snake.

Zi Lin'er, dressed in purple, followed closely behind the team. Her face was cold and her eyes were filled with murderous intent. She stared at the group of monks from the Demon Suppression Division with a fierce look: "Anyone who moves will be killed."

The monks felt their scalps tingling. They had no deep hatred with Chen Xuan, but they had a blood feud with the snake demon of the Rain Country.

Chen Xuan stared at Zi Lin'er and said unhappily, "Why have you been following me? I won't take you to see Senior Turtle."

The old turtle was unwilling to meet these monsters from the Rain Country.

He had no friendship with Zi Lin'er, so there was no reason for him to come forward to help... Moreover, he had no intention of facilitating an alliance between the monsters of the Rain Country and the ghosts of the Southern Wilderness to deal with the human race of the Chu Country.

Zi Lin'er laughed awkwardly upon hearing this and said, "Daoyou, I have nowhere to go."

She was injured and a lone demon. If she encountered any demons or ghosts of the Daozang level in the mountains, she might be attacked and her Daozang might be taken away... But if she followed Chen Xuan, her safety was guaranteed, and she was likely to meet the old turtle.

Zi Lin'er said, complaining, "It's all Nan Huang's fault. After getting the Shangyang Immortal's relic, couldn't they just use it? They kept dragging it out, causing so much trouble for no reason."

Chen Xuan asked curiously, "A lot of things?"

Zi Lin'er nodded and said, "There have been too many rumors circulating lately, some of which are quite frightening. Therefore, the Rain Nation sent me on a long journey to the Southern Wasteland to gather information."

"What rumors?" "Do you know the legendary [Tian Yan Dao]?"

"Destined One?"

Chen Xuan's eyes lit up and he pressed on, "Please explain in detail."

Suddenly I heard the news about a destined person, and I felt a little excited.

Zi Lin'er organized her words and replied, "In an ancient Taoist temple with a long and rich heritage among your race, there is a person of destiny named [Tian Yan Dao] imprisoned... She can deduce the future trajectory of a person or event based on known information about the present world."

"Infinite deduction, calculating all the lives of the people."

"Even the world's top Rain Master Dao, in a competition of divination and deduction, is not even half as good as the [Tian Yan Dao]."

"Xiao Qingtian once said that this is a rare, top-grade elixir."

"..."

Chen Xuan was shocked. How could he deduce what would happen in the future?

This kind of divine power is amazing. As long as it is operated properly, countless dangers can be avoided in advance.

"She possesses the power of divination and deduction, so why was she captured?"

Chen Xuan was confused and couldn't help asking.

Because he felt that people like [Tian Yan Dao] who were destined to seek good fortune and avoid misfortune, as long as they acted prudently, there was a great chance that they could hide their identities and safely cultivate themselves into high-level cultivators who were free and unrestrained.

But now, [Tian Yan Dao] is imprisoned in an ancient Taoist temple.

"It is said that a top-level master passed by her retreat and casually stirred up the nearby immortal energy to investigate, and accidentally discovered her secret."

"Accident?"

"Maybe. It could be."

Zi Lin'er's eyelashes trembled slightly, her purple eyes sparkling. She said casually, "Maybe there are some inexplicable accidents with no root cause. Even the [Tian Yan Dao] can't figure it all out."

She told Chen Xuan that the ancient Taoist temple where Tianyan Dao was found was originally in decline and dilapidated.

But since capturing Tian Yandao, the ancient Taoist temple immediately revived and scrambled for opportunities in the world of Qi training. Every time, it made a lot of money and escaped unscathed.

Later, the ancient Taoist temple even opened its doors and started a fortune-telling business that was profitable with no investment.

"Seizing a destiny figure and using them wisely is enough to make a sect flourish and grow, bringing glory to an era."

Chen Xuan sighed in his heart. This was also a person of destiny who lived in the "sunshine".

The cultivation system in this world is terrifying and strict. Low-level cultivators have no secrets in front of high-level cultivators... Those with destiny either rely on powerful forces or are refined into immortal pills. There is no other way.

Chen Xuan speculated, "Someone in the Chu State spent a huge amount of money to ask [Tian Yan Dao] to help deduce the events of the Southern Wilderness?"

Zi Lin'er suddenly mentioned this destined person, which was naturally related to the Southern Wilderness.

"Yes, a lot of scary rumors have been circulating, some of which are not sure whether they are true or not."

Zi Lin'er nodded, a trace of helplessness crossing her face. "Some say Emperor Jiang, knowing his immortality was hopeless, would drag the Rain Nation's Demon King down with him to his death to protect the Chu people's eternal prosperity and eliminate the hidden dangers... Others say the true immortal aspirant was actually a mountain god in the Southern Wilderness nearing the end of his life... Some even say the immortal fate of Shangyang Cave Heaven was ultimately obtained by an unknown human cultivator. How ridiculous."

These rumors have been passed around and have little truth to them.

But the impact is still huge, causing panic and restlessness among the people.

"Goddess Mountain Ghost has so far refused to use the relics of the immortals. What is she planning? I hope everything goes well for her."

Chen Xuan murmured to himself, the world is vast, and there are endless amazing people. He is not the only one shining.

In this kind of battle between immortals and gods, he would be satisfied if he could follow the Mountain Ghost Lady and the Old Turtle and get some of the leftover soups and waters from others. Of course, it is more likely that he would get nothing and not be able to participate in it at all.

Everyone continued on their way.

Not long after, in Chen Xuan's field of vision, a black light spot representing the black cat entered the southern wilderness, and the small underworld descended.

"The True Scripture of the Bird..."
