"I underestimated you. Your uncanny movement technique and magic beyond this stage—as the one who made the prophecy, you truly succeeded."

The cult leader was somewhat unwilling, but his ritual was almost complete. The idle chatter was just a way to buy time. He was well aware of his own limitations; with his current strength, he was no match for Xu Yi.

If one could sacrifice some of their lifespan in exchange for greater strength, perhaps there would still be hope for survival.

Xu Yi was very curious. Ever since the cult leader arrived, he had been talking about the prophet.

Does the Five Poisons Sect truly possess such power? Or does it have experts of this caliber who can foresee the future? This seems far too absurd; how powerful would one need to be to possess such abilities?

At least Xu Yi had never seen it in the Liu family's study, which means that a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator simply cannot achieve this level, or perhaps such a spell exists, but the Liu family is simply unaware of it and has not collected spells of this level.

That's possible, but if they can predict things so far in the future, what kind of legacy does the Five Poisons Sect have? He didn't know, so he was curious and wanted to ask the sect leader.

But this cult leader seems a bit off. What kind of secret technique is he using? Killing him now would definitely stop him, but this cult leader definitely knows some secrets.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have known the prophecy a day earlier than other members of the Five Poisons Sect; this sect leader must have some intelligence on him.

"Master, there's no point in saying more. I know you're using a secret technique. If I kill you now, perhaps some information will be buried."

"But since you're willing to say all this, it's obvious you're just stalling for time."

Xu Yi hit the nail on the head, seeing right through the cult leader's thoughts.

Upon hearing these words, the cult leader was no longer flustered. He knew that Xu Yi was also waiting, but he needed to say something of value, otherwise this person would definitely pull his soul out as well.

"Okay, what do you want to know, or rather, what kind of information do you want to know?"

Although the two are now facing a life-or-death battle, they have become somewhat more sincere with each other.

This scene struck Xu Yi as very strange.

"The prophet, how did you know? Why am I the prophet?" Xu Yi asked, a question that had been lingering in his mind from the very beginning.

"Hehe, this all started with a mural."

The cult leader began to recall the incident, which was indeed somewhat bizarre.

This mural was discovered by the first leader of the cult; it can be considered a magical artifact, but no one knows its origin.

Even the original leader of the Five Poisons Sect didn't know how it came about; it could only be said that it was a matter of luck.

This was a gift from heaven. The leader of the Five Poisons Sect used it to lay the foundation for the sect and once pushed it to its peak.

When the Five Poisons Sect was first led by its original leader, it was at its peak and strongest.

Because the original leader of the Five Poisons Cult controlled the prophecy stone tablet.

This is the name given to this stone wall by later generations.

"A prophecy stone tablet?" Xu Yi was somewhat stunned. Could it really predict the future? Did such things really exist?

"Yes, you guessed right. He can indeed predict the future, but only a specific person can control him." The cult leader said this with some resentment. Yes, he was also someone who could control the prophecy stone tablet, and he controlled it more powerfully than the current cult leader, and he could predict more things.

The cult leader was also unclear as to why this was the case. According to the tradition of the Five Poisons Cult, only one person could control the Prophecy Stone Tablet. Throughout history, only successive cult leaders had been qualified to control the Prophecy Stone Tablet.

"You mean, he wants to kill you?" Xu Yi asked. But judging from what this cult leader was saying, he seemed to be the villain, while Xu Yi, the person prophesied on the stone tablet, was there to save everything.

"But why do I hear you say that you are the real source of the turmoil?" Xu Yi retorted. He could feel that the aura emanating from the cult leader was becoming increasingly heavy, as if he was about to reach a limit.

"Hehe, only the victor has the right to judge right and wrong. I have reached my limit." The cult leader suddenly laughed. Everything he said was true, and not a single word was a lie to Xu Yi.

But time no longer allowed him to continue speaking. He had reached his limit. This forbidden technique was very powerful. Once used, there was no turning back, and he was very likely to lose his mind. This was something he had obtained from the Language Stone Tablet.

From the words of the cult leader, Xu Yi seemed to hear a conspiracy. This prophetic stone tablet seemed to be intentionally or unintentionally guiding the cult leader to do some things.

"You seem to have become possessed by a demon," Xu Yi said, squinting. "You seem to be constantly guided by the stone tablet, and even doing things according to its instructions."

"You seem to have become possessed by a demon," Xu Yi said, squinting. "You seem to be constantly guided by the stone tablet, and even doing things according to its instructions."

"No, no, no, you don't know, that hypocrite, he thinks he can accept me, but his actions show that he doesn't treat me as a deputy leader at all!" The leader almost shouted when he said this.

Xu Yi could sense the resentment in his tone; this cult leader seemed to have quite a lot of experiences.

This was not someone he could persuade. The cult leader had his own ideas, and he had always thought this way. Xu Yi had never experienced what the cult leader had gone through, so he could not put himself in the cult leader's shoes to think about certain issues, nor could he say anything that would make the cult leader change his mind.

"Alright, you're right. However, it's time for our final battle." Xu Yi put away his previous puzzled expression. If he wanted to know more, he might need to go to the Five Poisons Sect to learn more about the truth. This so-called prophecy stele definitely had something to it, but as for its purpose, Xu Yi didn't know.

However, according to Zhang Qiuyu, this is the territory of the Snake God. Why would the Snake God allow such a magical artifact that can predict heavenly secrets to exist? Moreover, this kind of prophecy is not ordinary. Xu Yi knows his origin. He does not belong to this world at all, but the prophecy stone tablet still predicted his existence.

How can this be explained?

Xu Yi didn't understand. This prophecy stele was like a cheat code, and what was this so-called evil clan all about?

Will the birth of the Sha clan alarm the Snake God?

Will the serpent god really notice this place?

Xu Yi was also very curious about these things.

However, these are things he can neither touch nor change. He can only keep them in his heart for now and explore the truth when he has the opportunity in the future.

Xu Yi didn't draw his iron sword; instead, he began to condense some gray gas in his hand—this was his incantation...
