From Under One Person: Sincere Journey Through the Heavens

There are not many residents in Nathan City; most of them have already gone to the battlefield to fight Behemoth alongside the members of Nathan.

therefore.

The city was desolate, except for nine youths who were cultivating in the empty square outside the royal palace.

They are Nathan's substitutes.

Behind these Nasen Guard reserves, at the palace gate, sat a sprightly old man with white hair and beard, sitting cross-legged on the steps. The air around him distorted, as if radiating an invisible power that moved everyone present.

Sensing someone entering the city, and seeing Zhang Chulan and the others from afar, Li Muxuan dissipated his aura, slowly straightened his back, and leaped a hundred meters away, landing in front of them. He asked, "You really are persistent, actually finding your way to the royal city."

"Oh shit!"

"There was no escaping it after all!"

Zhang Chulan was somewhat embarrassed, but Lu Linglong stepped forward, looked directly at Li Muxuan, and said firmly, "Senior Li, please come back with us and see the Grandfather. We can explain things clearly then, and you can just admit your mistake."

“That’s right, Senior Li, if you apologize to our grandfather, things might just get over,” Lu Lin advised.

"hehe."

Li Muxuan sneered twice, "As that guy's great-grandson, you know absolutely nothing about him. Do you think he'll let me go?"

"Grandpa was slapped quite a few times by Jiang Liu, so his obsession has dissipated somewhat... I guess," Lu Linglong said, somewhat uncertainly but truthfully.

Upon hearing that Lu Jin had been slapped, Li Muxuan was taken aback for a moment, then sneered, "Lu Jin, that kid actually got slapped one day? And by anyone other than Zhang Zhiwei? How interesting! Alright! I'll go back with you later!"

"Senior Li is truly righteous!"

Revealing his great-grandfather's dark history was a last resort, but it was the only option at the moment, and the effect was quite good.

Li Muxuan had no idea what he was supposed to do; he was just a loafer who would go wherever there was excitement and just drift along.

People like Wang Zhenqiu and Daodiao, who enjoy having fun, also go wherever there's something to do.

Both have their own goals: the former wants to learn about the "main storyline" from Zhang Chulan, while the latter pursues subjective freedom.

Li Muxuan, however, lived to be a hundred years old without knowing what he was doing or what he wanted to do. His actions were entirely based on his own whims.

The only thing he could be proud of in his life was having a daughter, whom he named "Li Chan," perhaps as a way of expressing remorse for the terrible things he had done in the past.

Li Muxuan agreed to this because he wanted to go back and mock Lu Jin, who had been slapped by a "junior"... Of course, Li Muxuan also had a slight desire to go back and confront the past.

"What righteousness? The worst outcome is nothing more than death."

In fact, Li Muxuan was not afraid of death and had even asked Wugensheng to kill him with one palm, but he just couldn't bring himself to end his own life.

He once told Wugensheng that he had cultivated himself all his life and couldn't just die so easily... Thinking about it now, it's really laughable.

He's spent his whole life cultivating, but he still hasn't grasped any real understanding of it.

"That past is my inner demon."

At this point, Li Muxuan suddenly stopped expressing his emotions and looked ahead, where he saw Elijah and Alfonso firing shots and releasing light magic at a man in black robes and a red mask.

After enduring all the damage, the man in black split into a body riddled with holes and charred skin. It then transformed into a wisp of black smoke, passed through Alfonso's light magic, and soared into the air, heading towards the sacred forest behind the royal city.

"Humph!"

Li Muxuan extended a human magnetic field, but missed. He frowned and said, "Human magnetism is so chaotic? But it gives me a feeling of order within chaos... Western alchemy and magic are really quite bizarre."

The method of human magnetism, whether controlling objects or people, requires first sensing the corresponding "magnetism" and establishing a connection.

If an object or person does not possess any magnetic field, then even if one cultivates the art of reversing directions to the level of Jiang Liu, it will be impossible to control it.

The intruder's personal magnetic field was extremely chaotic, yet harmonious, making it impossible for Li Muxuan to locate and restrain him using his magnetic field in a short period of time.

"You two stay here and guard the city gate!" Li Muxuan made a decisive decision, ordering Elijah and Alfonso to guard the outside, while he called Zhang Chulan and the others to chase after them in the direction of the Holy Forest.

Zhang Chulan was unwilling to take the risk, but seeing that Lu Linglong and Lu Lin had caught up with Li Muxuan first, followed by Feng Shayan and Zhang Lingyu, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and catch up with Feng Baobao.

the other side.

Jiang Liu was heading towards the royal city, walking slowly and leisurely, as if taking a stroll, until a foreigner appeared in front of him.

"Long time no see, Barron. You've come to Nathan Island to join the fun too?"

The moment his shoulder was hooked, Barron's body tensed instantly, his knees bent slightly, his waist arched, and his shoulders raised, ready to perform an over-the-shoulder throw.

But after seeing the person's face clearly, he stopped abruptly, a bead of cold sweat dripping from his forehead, and said, "Mr. Jiang, it has indeed been a while since we last met. How have you been?"

"not bad."

Jiang Liu shrugged, released his hand from Baron's shoulder, and asked, "What are you doing in Nathan?"

After a moment's thought, Baron decided to tell the truth, saying, "I was hired by the Emerald Society to land on the island. I was not given specific instructions, but it is most likely to destroy the Divine Tree... Besides me, John Spencer of the Emerald Society also hired other people."

"Isn't it a bit unprofessional of you to just blurt out the secret like that?" Jiang Liu joked.

"Well, how should I put it? I wouldn't dare lie to you. I've lived for quite a while, but if I were to truly face you directly, I really couldn't." Baron chuckled, scratching the back of his head, and cautiously asked, "May I ask what brings Mr. Jiang to Nathan Island?"

"Finding the lost item, the remaining purpose... doesn't conflict with your employer." Jiang Liu also revealed some of his thoughts.

Is that so?

Baron breathed a sigh of relief and laughed, "Then I'm relieved. Otherwise, even if I were still being hunted down by the Emerald Society, I would have given up this mission."

Because of his cultivation of the Six Treasures Immortal Thief, Baron possessed a near-perfect body and inexhaustible energy, but the emptiness in his heart forced him to seek out all sorts of stimulation in order to resist the side effects of using humans as food to fill the void in his body.

To this end, he once went to the Jade Society to steal the Jade Tablet—the origin of Western alchemy, which is said to contain records of the history of Atlantis.

"You're really brave, daring to steal the Jade Record."

Jiang Liu studied in Cairo, Egypt, and was acquainted with Evelyn. He also had some knowledge of ancient Egyptian history and understood how important this thing was to alchemists.

However, in terms of true origin, the Jadeite Record should belong to ancient Egypt, not the European Jadeite Society.

Jade Society...

They are robbers too!

# Chapter 670 The Prototype of God

"robber?"

Barron's body trembled involuntarily.

People who dare to call the Jade Society a "bandit" force—

There's probably only Jiang Liu standing right in front of him in the whole world.

"Is not it?"

Jiang Liu asked in a serious tone, "What Western countries like to do most is to rob things. Just like Nathan now, Behemoth is openly robbing Nathan Island while holding up the banner of 'no violence allowed'."

The extraordinary person and the divine tree were both valuable things that they had their eyes on;

The Jade Society, on the other hand, secretly sabotages the tree by hiring mercenaries like yourself, or other individuals with questionable identities, while remaining aloof to avoid leaving any evidence against them.

They're all the same.

Baron wanted to say: Aren't you going to destroy the sacred tree too?

But in the end, he didn't say it.

But Jiang Liu seemed to have seen through Baron's thoughts and said with a smile, "I'm different!"

I was personally invited to the island by King Nathan!

Since we're friends, it's understandable that I might accidentally make a mess of her house when I visit!

I'm confident that with my friendship with King Nathan, she'll forgive me in time!

Barron had nothing to say.

If his friends mess around in his house, there's only one outcome—

Break up!

Just as Jiang Liu was about to say something, he suddenly noticed a change in Nathan's aura. He grinned, extremely excited: "Hehe! My opponent has arrived!"

"opponent?"

Baron was puzzled, but his body suddenly trembled, his hair stood on end, and his eyes involuntarily turned towards the direction of the royal city, his expression extremely serious. "Has something happened in the royal city?"

Jiang Liu, however, separated a pure Yang thought and, using the trace of sincere spiritual light from his ancestral aperture, transmitted it to Feng Shayan's sea of ​​consciousness...

···

Zhang Chulan and his group had just arrived outside the Sacred Forest with Li Muxuan in pursuit of the man in black robes when they felt a pang of fear and stopped in their tracks.

The man in black robes also withdrew from the state of black smoke and looked towards the two people and the furnace in the center of the open space.

The two: Ma Xianhong and Ruan Feng.

One furnace: a furnace for self-cultivation.

The body-cultivation furnace is now fully constructed!

Unlike the cultivation furnace in Biyou Village, this cultivation furnace is 36 feet 5 inches tall and 24 feet in circumference. Golden tree roots, originating from the divine tree, are coiled around it, densely packed and twisted into holes, corresponding to the nine orifices and eight openings.

The palpitations in Zhang Chulan and the others stemmed from the cultivation furnace. Although there was not a trace of Qi fluctuation, it gave them a strange sense of dread, as if the furnace contained something extremely terrifying.

"A battle that shook heaven and earth, a battle so thrilling it moved even the gods to tears..."

Recalling Jiang Liu's words when they first arrived on the island, Zhang Chulan couldn't help but shudder, realizing that this place was the Sacred Forest, the location of the Divine Tree. Therefore, the core of the cultivation furnace created by Ma Xianhong—

Could it be the Divine Tree?!

Swish!

As space distorted, Nathan King's figure appeared beside Zhang Chulan and the others.

As the queen chosen by the divine tree, she has a direct connection with the tree and has sensed its changes.

In her inner vision, the original image of the divine tree resembles a tree that radiates golden light, tall and magnificent.

Now, the divine tree has changed its appearance, becoming a pattern composed of ten circles and twenty-two lines, transforming from its original natural life into a mechanical-like structure.

Within each circle, strange runes appeared, and within and outside the twenty-two lines connecting the ten circles, strange patterns gradually emerged.

sacred!
