Chapter 1362 Double Insurance
Lin Yuan Pavilion

Yunxi and Yuling were having tea and chatting in the side hall, and the topic was Liao Ziqian.

Although Yu Ling and Yun Xi are nominally master and disciple, their relationship is more like that of family and friends. This is Yu Ling's first time teaching a disciple, and he accepted Yun Xi under the guidance of the Heavenly Dao. Therefore, apart from teaching her cultivation techniques, he does not interfere too much with Yun Xi's friendships.

From the day he accepted Yunxi as his disciple, he knew that his disciple had a special mission and was a "variable". Yunxi herself seemed to have also glimpsed a glimpse of the secret, which is why she was able to return to the sect when he was undergoing the tribulation of the Nascent Soul stage, helping him to advance smoothly and also exposing the traitor Zuoqiu.

From the day he survived his near-death experience, he knew that Yunxi was no ordinary person and would one day ascend to godhood. Facts proved that his judgment of people was quite accurate, and the feedback from his disciples was also genuine, which is why he was able to advance smoothly to the Immortal King realm.

He only knew the general outline of Liao Ziqian's story, which Yunxi had mentioned while he was in seclusion outside the hall. This time, the master and disciple were finally able to sit down and have a deep conversation, so he asked about Liao Ziqian in detail.

Yunxi brewed her master's favorite Xue Ling tea as usual, and slowly recounted her connection with Xun Kun and Yu Liao Ziqian, including their schemes, which made Yu Ling frown.

He said in a deep voice:

"Ranxi, what you and Xunkun are doing is somewhat risky. Although your actions are in accordance with the will of Heaven, the risks are still too great, and there are too many variables involved."

Regardless of Liao Ziqian's character, even if you've placed nine layers of seals within him, the evil god now controls Liao Ziqian's body. He certainly won't sit idly by and wait to die. If he fights to the death, your plan will fail, and Liao Ziqian will be lost as well.

Yunxi nodded, knowing that Yu Ling's worries were not unfounded, and then said:
“Master, this matter has been a dead end from the beginning. Either we let the evil god gather all the bodies and resurrect, or we force him to use Liao Ziqian as a backup body and continue to fight us.”

Xun Kun and I both believe that allowing the evil god to break free of his physical seal and be resurrected would be a terrible outcome. Even though the evil god has been sealed for millions of years, he is still a god, and with our current strength, we have no chance of defeating a 'god'.

Therefore, we chose to proceed cautiously, forcing the evil god to retreat and possess Liao Ziqian. Liao Ziqian was a disciple of Xun Kun. Although he practiced the demonic path, he came from a legitimate family and had developed a Daoist heart early on. This gave him the power to resist even when the evil god tried to possess him.

Even if Liao Ziqian were successfully possessed by the evil god, his physical strength would only be at the ordinary immortal level. Even the evil god could not instantly grant Liao Ziqian god-level strength, which would give us the opportunity to eliminate the evil god.

Actually, Xun Kun and I were somewhat conflicted from the beginning. Since we knew that Liao Ziqian was the backup body chosen by the evil god, we could have eliminated him in advance. However, taking Liao Ziqian as a disciple was a promise made by Xun Kun, and Liao Ziqian himself did not do anything wrong.

Afterwards, the evil god and his followers suffered repeated setbacks in their struggle against us, and they came up with the idea of ​​kidnapping Liao Ziqian. Fortunately, Xun Kun sensed something that day and invited me to go with him, so in the end the evil god failed to kidnap him.

But it was also that time that Liao Ziqian learned the whole story. He did not want to succumb to the fate of becoming a backup body for the evil god, nor did he want to betray Xun Kun's teachings and my protection, so he chose to fight against the evil god to the end.

At that time, the little guy had just entered the path of cultivation and had not even established his foundation. He told Xun Kun with a firm expression that if he was successfully possessed by an evil god, he should let Xun Kun kill him. He said he did not want the evil god to disturb the Five Realms with his face on his back.

Ziqian's talent must be top-notch to be targeted by the evil god. We didn't want such a promising talent to die halfway, so we chose a compromise.

As his master, Xun Kun will naturally protect Zi Qian along the way. Each time he advances in rank, I will add a seal within him. This seal is to deal with the evil god who is trying to possess him, trapping him within Zi Qian's body. If it truly comes to the final step, Zi Qian's body will be the vessel sealing the evil god's soul. Once the Immortal Realm returns to the Divine Realm, a deity capable of dealing with this remnant soul will intervene. We will not only protect Zi Qian but also completely annihilate the evil god.”

Yu Ling listened attentively to Yun Xi's explanation, nodding occasionally. He was clearly satisfied with his disciple's meticulous planning, knowing exactly what was to come. Only after she finished speaking did he ask:

"If that's the case, why did you let Liao Ziqian escape from the Burial God Sea?"

Yunxi took a sip of tea to moisten her throat, and raised an eyebrow, saying:

“Master, there is no such thing as a thousand days of guarding against thieves. Only when he leaves the Burial God Sea can he gather all the evil immortals hiding in the Five Domains together, making it easier for us to wipe them out in one fell swoop.”

Yu Ling frowned her beautiful brows and said:

“Ranxi, since you can foresee the evil god’s next move, he can definitely see through your plan. If he chooses to lie low and continue to accumulate power, and then reappear when he can contend with us, we will be in a very passive position.”

Yunxi smiled slyly and said:

"So I left a backup plan for Liao Ziqian. The evil god thought he had completely controlled Liao Ziqian's body. As he worked hard to improve his cultivation in order to face us, the power of his body would naturally increase as well. When the time was right, we could cooperate with Liao Ziqian to take back his body and completely eliminate the evil god."

Yu Ling's expression softened considerably upon hearing this, and she said:

"Are you sure Liao Ziqian's soul still exists? What if the evil god notices it?"

Yunxi narrowed her almond-shaped eyes and said:
"Master, rest assured, most of the merits on Xun Kun and me have been transferred to Zi Qian. Otherwise, he would not have pretended to let the evil god succeed. Although the golden light of merits that protected Zi Qian over the years has been exhausted, it has also weakened the power of the evil god's soul. That is why he was seriously injured by you when he left the Burial God Sea."

It is precisely because there is a process and time for the two sides to contend with each other that the evil god will not easily notice. Instead, he will firmly believe that he has devoured Ziqian's soul, successfully seized the body, and become the sole master of this physical body.

After using his primordial power to break the "Heavenly Dipper Demon-Slaying Formation," the evil god's soul will definitely be further weakened. Coupled with your attacks, he is probably hiding away to recuperate now.

Only after gathering all his former subordinates can the evil god consider improving his cultivation level, but it is impossible to restore his former strength in a short period of time using evil magic.

I had already spoken with the Immortal Emperors of the Immortal Realm. Right now, all five realms are outwardly relaxed but inwardly tense. If there is any unusual movement, he will be exposed, and he will only be met with our relentless pursuit.

Unless he has enough patience to disguise himself as an ordinary immortal and gradually increase his cultivation, he can continue to lie low. But as more and more people in the Immortal Realm advance to the Immortal Emperor level, he will definitely become restless. We just need to wait and see; he will definitely show himself.
