Chapter 172 A Night Meeting with a Sage: Searching for Materials!

The crescent moon hung high in the sky, the night was deep, and only Luo Tian remained in the courtyard.

The cool moonlight shone on the bamboo leaves, and a gentle breeze swept through the courtyard.

The shadows of the green bamboo swayed gently on the ground.

Luo Tian sat at the stone table, with a cup of tea that had long since gone cold beside him.

He had been sitting alone for a long time, and glistening dewdrops had settled on his robes and long hair.

That magical array is underground; no one knows who set it up, nor when it will appear.

Forcibly breaking the formation will trigger a sensor, attracting the person who set it up.

If left to its own devices, the Earth's spiritual energy will never return, and his cultivation will forever remain stuck at the peak of the Integration stage.

This is not what he wanted to see. Besides, no one can guarantee that the person behind it won't turn against Earth after taking the stuff.

The rules of the immortal realm have no concept of peace; they are simple, brutal, and the strong are respected.

In that world, it's common for powerful cultivators to annihilate a life-bearing planet with a single palm strike; weakness is the original sin!

He exhaled, picked up the herbal tea, took a sip, and slowly put the teacup down.

The formation must be broken, even though the person who set it up might have been an Immortal Emperor at the height of their power.

But once he arrives on Earth, the rules of Heaven will suppress his cultivation.

Outsiders always suffer more than natives; this is an ironclad rule.

Luo Tian is a native of Earth, so Heaven will naturally side with him.

If we unite with the Heavenly Dao to fight against a suppressed Immortal Emperor, we might not be without a chance of victory.

People from the celestial realm cannot come to such a low-level plane; forcibly descending would come at a great cost.

Even if the person who sets up the formation has a magical treasure to protect them, they will still be suppressed by the rules when they arrive.

Luo Tian, ​​having returned from the Immortal Realm, knew better than anyone how difficult it was to cross realms.

As for the worst-case scenario, we can simply refine the Earth and turn it into our own little world.

Although he has not yet recovered to his full strength, he still has the means to refine a planet.

If it really comes to that, he'll just move the whole world to a new place.

The revival of spiritual energy is inevitable, though it has both advantages and disadvantages.

On the positive side, life on Earth has the opportunity to cultivate, spiritual energy nourishes all things, and Earth's level will be elevated.

On the downside, some dormant things will awaken, and some hidden forces will surface.

But as long as the War God Sect exists, the situation can be controlled.

Disciples, protectors, elders—these forces are not just for show; they are enough to sweep across the entire Earth.

Even if there are enemies from outside the region, as long as he is there, he can solve the problem; that is his confidence.

Luo Tian stood up and poured the herbal tea into the flowerbed.

He needs to go to the sage first and reveal these things to him so that he can be mentally prepared.

The Xuanyuan Sword transformed into a golden light, soaring through the sky from the immortal island and flying towards the capital.

……

Kyoto, inside a traditional courtyard house.

The sage was reviewing documents in his study when Old Zhao pushed open the door and said that Luo Tian had arrived.

The sage put down his pen, got up, and walked to the window.

I saw Luo Tian standing in the courtyard, his robes covered in dew.

"Why are you here so late? What happened?"

The sage had a kind face, but he was somewhat nervous inside.

Because Luo Tian rarely comes to see me, when he does, it must be something important, but I don't know if it's good or bad.

"Let's go inside and talk about it. It's hard to explain in a short time."

Luo Tian followed the sage into the study, and without much pleasantries, went straight to the point:

"I've found a big problem; it's an underground seal."

The depletion of Earth's spiritual energy is directly related to it.

Once the seal is broken, Earth's spiritual energy will gradually recover.

The sage's expression changed repeatedly as he suddenly connected many things to his mind.

He understood better than most what the resurgence of spiritual energy meant.

However, he quickly came to a conclusion.

"Luo Tian, ​​how confident are you?"

Upon hearing this, Luo Tian looked at the Sage seriously, his tone firm.

"If it's just about breaking the seal, I'm absolutely certain, but..."

He didn't say the rest.

"But it would pose a huge threat to the Earth, wouldn't it?"

Seeing that Luo Tian hadn't finished speaking, the sage added the rest of his sentence.

"Sigh, that's right. If that seal is broken, there's a very high chance that a powerful external enemy will appear."

Luo Tian sighed softly, then continued:

"However, we are not without the strength to fight back."

When powerful enemies from outside the region come to Earth, they will be suppressed by the rules.

Even if they can't unleash their full power, I'm confident I can handle them.

After listening to Luo Tian's account, the sage guessed his purpose.

"So, you came to me so I could prepare and settle the people down, is that right?"

"That's right, the commotion will be huge and can't be contained."

Anyway, now even ordinary people know that cultivators exist.

Luo Tian took a sip of the tea that Old Zhao had brewed and continued:

"Therefore, I plan to have everyone practice, not ancient martial arts, but introductory cultivation techniques for immortality."

Luo Tian gazed at the night sky outside the window, his voice echoing in the room.

"The revival of spiritual energy will cause some people to undergo changes, such as suddenly awakening a certain ability or power."

These people may become uncontrollable, and someone will need to specifically control the situation.

"I hope the Sage can keep the lower classes in check, and let the Battle Heaven Divine Sect handle the powerful ones!"

"That would be best. We can divide the work and cooperate to ensure that our China doesn't suffer any major trouble."

As for other countries, we can only offer a friendly reminder: if they dare to act recklessly, we won't hold back!

The sage made the final decision, finalizing the cooperation agreement.

Luo Tian nodded, and a flash of light appeared in his hand, revealing two ancient-looking books.

"This is a true cultivation technique. One book is the introductory chapter, and the other can be used to cultivate to the Golden Core stage."

Once you reach the Golden Core stage, you can go directly to the Battle Heaven Sect for further study, where there are more advanced cultivation techniques.

As for who should cultivate first, you, Sage, can decide that yourself!

The sage accepted the cultivation method with great reverence and thanked Luo Tian.

These are fundamental to stabilizing the situation in the future, and are extremely important.

"When do you plan to make your move?"

The sage composed himself and inquired.

"I can only make a move after I find the materials to break the formation."

Luo Tian looked slightly troubled.

"What do you need? I'll have someone go find it."

"Prioritize finding the Void-Breaking Stone, as it is specifically used to break spatial restrictions."

If none can be found, then use meteorite iron from outer space as a substitute.

Luo Tian described in detail the appearance, material, and habits of the Void-Breaking Stone.

The sage wrote down these two names on the paper:

"I will secretly have people search for it, and I will notify you as soon as I find it."

"Okay, I'll look for it myself; that way it'll be more efficient."

Luo Tian didn't linger. He bid farewell to the sage and turned to rise into the air.

The sage stood by the window, watching him disappear into the night, and stood there blankly for a long time.

Upon returning to the War God Sect, Luo Tian summoned True Person Tianxuan and instructed him to send people to search for the Void-Breaking Stone and the extraterrestrial meteorite.

"The Void-Breaking Stone is extremely difficult to find. Earth's spiritual energy has been depleted for many years, and this kind of rare and precious material has almost disappeared."

Master Tianxuan said with a bitter face.

"I will do my best to search for it, but whether I can find it depends on fate."

"Yes, do your best! Also, tell the disciples that there may be some changes in the near future, so that everyone can prepare in advance."

Knowing the gravity of the matter, Master Tianxuan dared not delay and accepted the order to withdraw and give instructions.

Luo Tian sat in the main hall, looking at the empty council chamber.

As night deepened, a faint light shimmered on the distant sea, and the moon appeared and disappeared behind the clouds.

He didn't know when the person who set up the formation would arrive, but he had already decided not to wait any longer.

He wanted to go out and search for it himself, and break the sealing formation as soon as possible; the longer it dragged on, the more troublesome it would become.
