Simulated immortality allows me to calculate talent stats.

[You are unaffected by the filth and distractions of your inner demons, but the elegantly dressed old man and the man holding the golden sun are on high alert.]

For beings of higher realms, their mind, soul, and consciousness are beyond their control and cannot be disturbed or contaminated.

Otherwise, they will fall into eternal damnation.

This is why Xu Hui possessed an unblemished mind, and why the three reliefs in the Tomb of the God of War embodied absolute rationality.

[They were all possessed and controlled by their inner demons.]

Holding a golden sun, the man exuded an ethereal aura, his body enveloped in a pure white radiance resembling that of immortals, forming flowing ribbons around him.

"Fortunately, we had planned this for a long time; otherwise, the two of us alone would not have been able to defeat this evil creature."

A leisurely voice rang out, followed by the resounding clang of a sword echoing from the summit of Tianfeng Peak.

As the sound of swords rang out, in an instant, sword light filled the universe.

[You felt an excruciating pain, as if your soul were being torn apart, simply by witnessing it.]

[Xu Kun's body was enveloped in billowing black smoke, protecting you from the terrifying sword light.]

Looking towards the summit of Mount Tian, ​​his cold gaze grew even more solemn.

"Brother, we're probably going to be buried alive today."

[Your broken eyes pierced through the black mist, vaguely catching sight of a sword-wielding figure atop the mountain.]

[A crimson light that exists between illusion and reality, yet grants you an unprecedented "premonition."]

Clearly, this one is more dangerous than the previous two.

Even Xu Kun felt a fatal threat.

"Don't be afraid, Brother Two-Five. I knew there was a trap, so how could I not have a backup plan?"

Xu Kun turned around and looked at you in surprise.

He has complete faith in your brilliant idea.

You gaze at the sky, distorted by various celestial phenomena.

[A loud cry rang out: "Palace Master, we beg you to lend a hand!"]

Upon hearing your address, Xu Kun immediately realized who you were calling.

【Gong Si? When did my brother get involved with this vixen?】

A chaotic force field distorting space abruptly intruded into this world, its terrifying tearing force capable of annihilating everything shattering the countless sword lights.

A figure in a magnificent palace dress stood gracefully.

A face whose beauty defies description, radiating an irresistible charm.

Gong Si gazed at the sword-wielding figure atop the mountain, her beautiful eyes filled with surprise, doubt, and apprehension.

[A seductive voice sounds.]

"A being from the heavens descending to earth?"

Then her gaze shifted to Xu Kun, and finally settled on you.

"Young Master Wen, the deal I agreed to with you didn't involve such a thing."

"Do you still want the intelligence?"

【"want!"】

Gong Si answered decisively, her smile alluring and seductive: "Being able to obtain information about Pei Qingyu is worthy of my attention."

The magnificent palace dress, its vibrant colors like a blush spreading across the void.

She unleashed a terrifying force field, distorting the surrounding scenery and creating a bizarre, surreal landscape.

[Disorder Field.]

You have inscribed this secret technique of theirs.

[Only now, seeing Gong Si completely released, did he understand what disorder meant.]

[It is a terrifying power capable of truly twisting, tearing, and disrupting order.]

A phantom figure wielding a sword atop the mountain stood facing Gong Si from afar; the clash of sword light and force fields created a boundary that seemed to annihilate all things.

The elderly man in elaborate robes, holding a ritual implement, had a cold expression.

"Gong Si, do you really want to become enemies with Da Cang?"

Gong Si feigned surprise: "Oh? The Demonic Sect supported Chen Chao's rebellion, so weren't they already sworn enemies with Da Cang?"

The old man's expression immediately turned ashen.

That's the situation on the surface, but the tacit plans and schemes behind the scenes are something that can't be openly discussed.

The old man's imposing gaze fell upon you for the first time.

"I never imagined that a mere ant could sway such a situation. I underestimated you."

【"Hehehe..."】

Xu Kun chuckled softly, blocking the old man's view, his hands clasped together, his wide sleeves fluttering.

"Old man, your opponent is me!"

The boundless, filthy sea surged and tilted, as if the sky were collapsing, ravaging the elegantly dressed old man and the ethereal figure.

The man used the blazing golden light in his hand to defend himself, but his expression grew increasingly grim, as if he had been tainted by something filthy.

Unable to maintain her ethereal composure any longer, she said coldly, "Yin Chu! You can no longer hold back!"

You're hiding behind Xu Kun; the more chaotic the situation is, the better, to you.

This way you can gather more intelligence and information.

[Yin Chu?]

[You heard the ethereal voice of a man from a celestial sect.]

Could that old man be a member of the Great Cang royal family?

That's not surprising.

[Chen Chaomang previously stated that he, Xiang Che, Gong Si, Pei Qingyu, and Xu Kun together could barely match the top combat power of the Great Cang Central Court.]

This is only what's outwardly apparent.

The presence of members of the royal family signifies that the Immortal Sect has already cooperated with the Great Cang Central Court.

Your gaze is calm, but your mind is racing.

The immortal sects collaborated with Yin Qian, offering him entry into Shu in exchange for the assassination of their master.

So what is the purpose of cooperating with the Great Azure Court now?

Or is it Yin Chu, who is from the Zhou state?

You haven't delved into it yet; you've simply memorized all the clues.

[Because it wasn't hard to tell from the words of that immortal sect man that they had a backup plan.]

Yin Chu's expression was solemn, his eyes filled with conflict and hesitation, but he ultimately decided to use his trump card.

[Click!]

He crushed the ritual implement in his hand, unleashing an immense pressure that was then restrained and bound.

[Subsequently, this oppressive force, which Xu Kun referred to as fortune, gradually condensed into a talisman.]

[Buzz...]

A mysterious light flowed, and the talisman seemed to break through the barriers of time and space.

The next moment, a tall, slender figure emerged from within.

A long, azure robe, like a vast ocean gathering around her, rippled and billowed.

The young man was handsome, with sickly pale skin and long, flowing black hair.

[Eyes closed.]

[He slowly walked out of the passage opened up by the talisman.]

"I don't have much time left."

[The young man's voice rang out with his eyes closed, clear and cold, accompanied by a roar like a surging ocean.]

The young man resembled the sword-wielding figure atop Tianfeng Mountain, existing between reality and illusion.

Upon seeing the newcomer, Gong Si's beautiful eyes grew solemn, the chaotic light within her intensifying, releasing a deadly sense of crisis.

"The Lord of Dongyi Pavilion..."

Upon hearing the name Gong Si, you immediately retrieve the corresponding figure from your vast memory database.

[In Cangzhou, near the East Sea, lies the Dongyi Sword Pavilion, one of the four great holy lands for sword cultivators in the world.]

[It seems this is the master of the Dongyi Sword Pavilion.]

[Moreover, they are either siding with the Great Cang Central Court or cooperating with the Zhou Kingdom.]

[Jingxin Sword Pavilion, Yongzhou Sword Palace, Dongyi Sword Pavilion, Canglan Sword Sect.]

[The Four Great Holy Lands of Sword Cultivation.]

Xu Kun's expressionless face conveyed a profound sense of coldness and indifference.

"Brother, this pit is huge! We're probably doomed."

The situation has developed beyond his control.

[Yin Chu and the men from the immortal sect; he was confident he could suppress them alone.]

[After the sword-wielding man appeared on the mountaintop, Gong Si was able to barely hold him off.]

[Plus the Dongyi Pavilion Master...]

This is a dead end.

"Don't panic..."

[Your calm voice rang out.]

Xu Kun looked back at you with a surprised and incredulous expression.

"Brother, I still have a backup plan."
