To comprehend all laws and attain immortality

No one could tell whether Xie Linyuan's words were true or false.

However, judging from the reaction of True Lord Duchen, the Lotus of Reincarnation does indeed exist in the Rebirth Sect, which is clearly the lotus in the pond.

If True Lord Duchen is indeed the True Lord who founded the Rebirth Sect, then each time the Lotus of Reincarnation reshapes his physical body, it would probably add a thousand years to his lifespan.

Immortality is the sweetest bait on the path to immortality.

In the world of cultivation, no one can remain unmoved.

After Xie Linyuan finished speaking, Du Chen Zhenjun did not utter a single word of rebuttal.

He knew in his heart that everything Xie Linyuan said was true.

Even the moment he realized Xie Linyuan's betrayal, he secretly activated the Soul-Silent Seal, but there was no response. He immediately understood that Xie Linyuan must have used some unknown method to completely remove the Soul-Silent Seal.

The position of the leader of the Rebirth Sect requires someone with exceptional talent.

Those who practice Duanchen and Anhun are inferior in both spiritual root aptitude and personal character.

Back then, he deliberately planted the Soul-Suppressing Seal on Xie Linyuan, thinking he could rest easy, as a single thought would be enough to annihilate Xie Linyuan's soul. However, he never expected Xie Linyuan's talent and forbearance to far exceed his expectations, ultimately leading to today's disaster.

"You think you can take me down with these?" True Monarch Duchen's voice rang out sinisterly, chilling to the bone.

Before he finished speaking, an even more powerful magical force suddenly erupted from his nascent soul. The nascent soul light ball instantly expanded several times, and the resentment chains wrapped around it were immediately stretched taut. Yun Shuwan, at the other end of the chains, couldn't help but let out a mournful cry of pain.

Gu Fan stood on the viewing platform, his gaze slightly narrowed, having already seen through the true nature of the chains.

It was actually refined from resentment.

He didn't know how Yun Shuwan had refined the resentment into her body, but recalling the gourd hanging at the waist of the Rebirth Sect cultivator, he already had the answer to the source of this resentment.

At this moment, this resentment was refined into a deadly poison by a secret technique, which was able to trap the Nascent Soul True Monarch and was constantly corrupting his magical power.

Regardless of what fate awaits True Lord Duchen, Yun Shuwan, as the vessel of resentment, is certain to perish.

Thinking of this, Gu Fan felt a pang of pity.

Seeing this, Xie Linyuan frowned and said in a deep voice, "Even if you struggle, it's useless. The taste of resentment from all living beings must be unbearable, right? You've stood on your pedestal for too long, unable to see the suffering of the masses, nor to smell their resentment!"

Du Chen Zhenjun seemed to ignore Xie Linyuan's words, focusing only on struggling to break free from the entanglement of resentment, his nascent soul trembling violently within the chains.

"If you take back this resentment, I'll spare your life, how about it?"

Upon hearing Yun Shuwan's agonizing cries, True Lord Duchen suddenly spoke.

How could he not want to kill Yun Shuwan immediately?

However, the two were tightly bound together by the chains of resentment. Once Yun Shuwan breathed her last, the uncontrolled resentment within her body would instantly transfer to him, and the bone-chilling cold would be something he could not bear at this moment.

If Yun Shuwan could voluntarily remove the chains, that would be the best outcome for him.

Yun Shuwan suddenly gave a bitter laugh, her voice trembling as she said, "Once resentment is stirred up... there's no way to take it back. I've been waiting for this day... for a very long time."

As she spoke, she used her last bit of strength to turn her head, her gaze falling on Xie Linyuan, and said softly, "In this way... I can help you achieve your wish... Father."

Father?

These words sent a jolt through the hearts of all the cultivators present.

No one could have imagined that the Holy Maiden of the Rebirth Sect and the sect leader actually had a father-daughter relationship!

Du Chen Zhenjun suddenly gave a dry laugh, his laughter full of sarcasm: "I thought she knew nothing about the Reincarnation Lotus, but it turns out you saw right through her. Xie Linyuan, you really have the heart to go to such lengths to raise your daughter into a saintess, just to deliver a fatal blow to me today."

The position of Saintess is not something anyone can assume. It requires superior spiritual roots and cultivation reaching the Golden Core stage to bear the power of the Reincarnation Lotus.

The cultivators of the Rebirth Sect travel around the Qin Kingdom year-round. Once they discover a promising young immortal, they bring her back to the sect, where she undergoes rigorous selection before the final choice of the Holy Woman is made.

The holy maidens of each generation were never told the truth. They were kept in the dark, believing that they were chosen to follow the high priest and listen to the Dao Ancestor's decree. On the day of their reincarnation, they would be imprisoned by the True Lord of Crossing Dust and become vessels for him to reshape his physical body.

But Du Chen Zhenjun never expected that Xie Linyuan would secretly give birth to a daughter and raise her step by step into a saintess.

The madness on Xie Linyuan's face melted away like ice and snow in an instant. His bloodshot eyes fell on Yun Shuwan's pale face, and a single tear slowly rolled down his cheek.

A moment later, he abruptly raised his head, his eyes filled with overwhelming hatred replacing the tears in them, and coldly looked at True Lord Duchen: "As long as I can get rid of you, this demon, it's all worth it!"

He gripped the array flag tightly in his hand, determined to trap True Monarch Duchen within the array and give him no chance to struggle.

Just then, True Lord Duchen suddenly laughed, his laughter both mournful and mad: "You are right, I am indeed True Lord of Rebirth, but that is merely the title of my second incarnation."

"I was born three thousand years ago, when the Qionghua Realm was rich in spiritual energy and the Luofu Immortal Sect was powerful in all directions. Unfortunately, I was of mediocre talent and had no chance to join the Immortal Sect. By a twist of fate, I inherited the Reincarnation Lineage and could only struggle to survive at the bottom as a rogue cultivator."

"Until the ancient war, the Qionghua Realm was shattered, and I survived by chance, finally able to roam the Qionghua Realm openly. By searching for opportunities everywhere, I finally cultivated to the Nascent Soul stage, and by chance, I found the Reincarnation Lotus. When my lifespan was nearing its end, I comprehended the use of the Lotus and successfully lived a second life."

"I originally thought that by relying on the Reincarnation Lotus, I could gradually cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage, or even higher. However, I never expected that after the shattering of the Heavenly Realm, the spiritual energy suddenly declined, and my cultivation limit was firmly locked. If it weren't for this, why would I have gone to such lengths to create this Rebirth Sect!"

At this point, True Monarch Duchen's words carried a hint of sorrow and resentment, his voice hoarse: "Dao Ancestor, how cruel you were to me! You gave me hope to live, yet you cut off my path to immortality!"

As soon as he finished speaking, his tone turned somber, and he looked at Xie Linyuan with a mocking smile.

"However, if you think that this is all the skill I have after three thousand years of cultivation, you are sorely mistaken!"

"Sever the cycle of reincarnation, transform into a spirit body!"

He let out a fierce roar, and his nascent soul suddenly collapsed. His magical power dissipated like a tidal wave, replaced by a chilling, piercing black light that actually broke open the chains of resentment. A black shadow emerged from within and, taking advantage of the chains of resentment not yet closing, swooped down towards Yun Shuwan.

The next instant, the black shadow passed straight through Yun Shuwan's body, enveloped in a pale golden spiritual light, and began to devour her voraciously.

The moment the shadow struck, Yun Shuwan's body stiffened abruptly, the light in her eyes went out completely, and she was lifeless.

The uncontrolled resentment within her body erupted instantly, engulfing her flesh like a tidal wave.

"Impossible! How could you break free of the Soul Lock!" Xie Linyuan roared, his eyes bloodshot.

He was familiar with all the techniques and secret arts of the Rebirth Sect, but none of them possessed such supernatural powers!
