Enduring humiliation for three years, seizing the elixir, the treasure, and the holy maiden.

"You little brat."

The old man put his hands behind his back and shook his head.

"You don't even recognize me, an old man?"

He said that in such a leisurely manner.

Huang Tianhua's brows furrowed.

That voice sounds familiar.

But for the time being, I just can't remember where I've heard it before.

The old man chuckled when he saw Huang Tianhua's bewildered expression.

"It seems so."

"These past two hundred years have truly made you very comfortable."

"The battle at Luoyun Sword Abyss two hundred years ago."

"With a single sword stroke, I've severed half of your Dao heart."

"You took nearly a hundred years to recover back then."

"You've forgotten so quickly?"

Huang Tianhua's mind went blank for a moment.

Li Changfeng!!!

Back then, he was arrogant and unruly, becoming a recognized prodigy in Qingzhou.

He fought against dozens of sects.

In the end, Li Chang almost shattered his Dao heart.

Everyone in Qingzhou knows this.

"Senior Li... Li Changfeng?!"

Huang Tianhua panicked.

The disciples standing nearby were also bewildered.

Our own Supreme Elder has never shown such an embarrassing state in front of others.

If my Dao heart hadn't trembled, how could this have happened...?

Huang Tianhua caught his breath, hurriedly cupped his hands in a gesture of respect, and forced a smile.

"So it's Senior Li Changfeng."

"Senior, please don't mock me."

"I am but a Nascent Soul cultivator."

"How can I deserve such concern from the person in front of me?"

These words are sincere.

I was also afraid.

Li Changfeng has been away from Qingzhou for many years.

The memory of that sword strike from back then still makes Huang Tianhua shudder in the middle of the night.

Li Changfeng didn't respond to that.

"I have returned this time."

Li Changfeng slowly brought up the topic.

"For no other reason than..."

"Under the Sword Abyss of your Tai Xuan Sect."

"A thousand years ago, I sealed away a person."

"Now, the millennium has come to an end."

"That restriction has probably loosened."

"I've come to reinforce the restrictions."

These words were spoken.

Huang Tianhua's face turned pale instantly.

Sword Abyss.

broken.

A thin layer of sweat appeared on Huang Tianhua's back.

That's when he remembered.

A few days ago, people came from the Xuanhuang Continent.

They released the one who was being suppressed beneath the Sword Abyss.

Huang Tianhua had no idea who was being suppressed beneath the Sword Abyss.

Even before that, he didn't know that there was a powerful figure suppressing him beneath Sword Abyss within his own sect.

Now that I've heard Li Changfeng say this...

Huang Tianhua's heart sank.

What was released was sealed by Li Changfeng himself a thousand years ago?

What made Huang Tianhua's scalp tingle even more was another matter.

Li Changfeng's tone.

It could be sealed a thousand years ago.

According to the message sent back from the Xuanhuang Continent, those that were sealed off...

He's a powerful being at the Integration Realm.

A powerful being who had reached the Integration Realm was sealed away by Li Changfeng for a thousand years.

That Li Changfeng...

Huang Tianhua felt the bluestone slabs under his feet sway twice.

"To be honest, senior."

Huang Tianhua swallowed hard, steeled himself, and blurted out the truth.

"That one beneath the Sword Abyss."

"A few days ago."

"They've already been released by the cultivators of the Xuanhuang Continent."

Upon hearing this, Li Changfeng didn't seem particularly surprised.

"I've known for a long time that those forces on the Xuanhuang Continent are restless."

"She actually managed to rescue her junior."

"Fine..."

"The fact that they were able to break through my restrictions shows that they have some skill."

Huang Tianhua casually waved his hand.

Huang Tianhua couldn't understand it.

One of the combined-level powerful beings was released.

This is such a big deal.

Li Changfeng seemed not to take it seriously at all.

And they even said they had some skills.

In fact, Huang Tianhua was aware of the situation when he broke the restriction.

Those who broke the restriction were cultivators at the Void Refinement stage.

That level of cultivation was legendary in Qingzhou.

Even so, it took several people working together and sacrificing their cultivation to break it.

"The rest."

"That's not something you should be asking about."

"Regarding my return to Qingzhou."

"Don't mention it to anyone else."

Li Changfeng snorted coldly.

"Yes, yes, yes."

Huang Tianhua quickly replied.

"From today onwards."

"All the sects in Qingzhou."

"They all follow the lead of the Luoyun Sect."

"I'm here."

"Within a few years."

"I, this old man, will take over Qingzhou."

"Overwhelming the Xuanhuang Continent."

"To become the number one territory in this world."

Li Changfeng just said it so casually.

But it almost stunned Huang Tianhua.

That's right!

Overwhelming the Xuanhuang Continent?

The Xuanhuang Continent is now overseen by the powerful cultivator Hong Fu Shangren, who is at the Integration Realm.

Li Changfeng's words were insightful.

An understatement.

It was as if that powerful being who had reached the fusion stage was not even in his eyes.

As Huang Tianhua pondered this, he belatedly shivered.

Could it be...?

Li Changfeng's realm...

More importantly, the reason why Qingzhou has always been inferior to Xuanhuang Continent is that Qingzhou has never been able to compete with Xuanhuang Continent.

Essentially, it's because Qingzhou's spiritual veins are weak.

The spiritual energy of Qingzhou is not abundant enough.

It is completely incomparable to the Xuanhuang Continent.

It's truly hard to understand how Qingzhou could possibly rival the Xuanhuang Continent.

...

Su Chen leaned against a stone pillar with a coiled dragon design, his eyes closed.

I don't know how much time passed.

A surge of spiritual energy rippled within the library.

Su Chen frowned.

Something's not right!

Looking further into the distance...

Jiang Shiyu's seated figure was trembling incessantly.

He was covered in fragrant sweat.

His blue shirt was soaked through.

"Miss Jiang?"

Su Chen frowned and walked over.

I wonder what kind of trouble this girl is up to right now.

To sense her presence.

Good guy.

Within Jiang Shiyu's meridians, spiritual energy surged and crashed wildly.

This is clearly a chaotic outburst of spiritual energy within the body.

In addition, this woman had previously said that she wanted to comprehend some kind of cultivation technique.

Su Chen glanced at the kung fu in front of her.

After reading two or three lines, I concluded that this was a technique from the Demonic Sect.

Moreover, it was actually a dual cultivation technique from the Demonic Sect.

This technique is different from ordinary techniques.

It is quite mysterious.

Speaking of which, there are all the dual cultivation techniques in the world.

Ultimately, it all originated from the ancient demonic sect.

And nowadays, cultivators have those dual cultivation methods.

Compared to the original form of this ancient demonic sect.

They are worlds apart in skill.

The profound knowledge and wisdom of Master Hongfu are truly terrifying.

They even have such rare techniques.

It's no wonder this woman was attracted to this kind of technique.

This is Jiang Shiyu.

They probably had their eye on that.

Thinking that Su Chen could rest with his eyes closed.

He secretly pondered it to himself.

Su Chen almost laughed out of anger.

This is a technique that combines yin and yang.

One person can comprehend this?

That's practically suicide!

Dual cultivation is ultimately a matter for two people.

If one tries to comprehend this alone, one will inevitably go astray.

Doesn't this girl understand this principle?

Or perhaps this woman never practiced dual cultivation at all?

Jiang Shiyu.

Su Chen's face darkened, and he grabbed her wrist.

Her wrist was so slender that it seemed as if one could easily grasp it.

It's scalding hot right now.

"What you've grasped is the method of dual cultivation."

Su Chen's voice was very low.

"The balance of Yin and Yang is disrupted."

"If this continues, your meridians will explode."

Jiang Shiyu's eyes were half-open and half-closed.

...
