On this day, the Firmament of Myriad Poisons that shrouded the secret zone had turned verdant green without anyone noticing.
In the center of the vast secret land of meteorites, there was still a majestic vitality everywhere, but the towering tree in the center that almost supported the entire Firmament Wall of Poisons had disappeared.
At this time, the Longhuai Ancestor had not changed at all compared to 500 years ago, but the aura around him had become more ethereal and profound. At this time, he stood in front of the many cultivators of the Spirit-Demon Clan with his hands behind his back and said indifferently, "Over the past 500 years, the Old Man has established the foundation for the Spirit-Demon Clan. However, when the Old Man is alive, no one in the cultivation world would dare to make things difficult for you. But after the Old Man is gone, the Spirit-Demon Clan will inevitably be attacked by various sects in the cultivation world. You must not act impulsively. You must know that it will be a long process for the entire cultivation world to accept your existence. This process may be accompanied by fierce conflicts, but the Spirit-Demon Clan must not lose its inheritance, otherwise the future will be worrying."
Longhuai Ancestor paused and then said, "If it really comes to a time of crisis, you might as well ask for help from the North Sea Zhenling. Only this family can be a true ally of the Spirit-Demon Clan. As for the Heavenly Mystery Sect and the Green Sea Snakes, you can also consider them as friends. However, after the Qi Fan leaves with the Old Man, the Heavenly Mystery Sect may also be affected. You must take care of yourselves."
Below Longhuai Ancestor, a middle-aged cultivator with a poplar hairpin on his head and dozens of high-level cultivators of the Spirit-Demon Clan bowed to the Longhuai Ancestor in unison, respectfully sending off the Ancestor of the Spirit-Demon Clan to the North Ice Plains.
By the time everyone got up, the Longhuai Ancestor had already disappeared in front of everyone, leaving only a lamp with a flickering green flame at the place where he had left. A Soul Lamp!
The Spirit Demon Clan cultivators gradually dispersed, leaving only the middle-aged cultivator and two Pure Yang Spirit Demon cultivators guarding the Soul Lamp.
Above the Myriad Poison Firmament Wall, the Longhuai Ancestor's gaze seemed to be able to penetrate the Myriad Poison Firmament Wall and see everything that was happening in the secret land of the fallen mountain.
After a while, the Longhuai Ancestor said, "I'm afraid that we will most likely die on this trip. Have the three of you made arrangements for the aftermath?"
Chu Fanyun smiled and said, "There's no need for the Green Sea Snakes to make any arrangements. What happened in the past will remain the same in the future. It won't be affected by the Old Man."
The Longhuai Ancestor nodded and said, "The Green Sea Snakes have been a large Demon Clan since the beginning of the world. They have a perfect inheritance system, so there's naturally no need for any arrangements."
The Seven Fans Laozu sighed and said, "The Old Man fell into a trap. It was only when I met Senior that I found out that the true spirit inheritance of the Nine Profound House differs from person to person. The Heavenly Profound Sect has expanded a lot in recent years because the Old Man thinks that there's a chance for them to become a Holy Land. The Old Man will definitely be affected when he goes there. The Old Man has already informed the people in charge of the sect to restrain themselves after the Old Man leaves. I hope they will listen to him!"
The Longhuai Ancestor sighed and said, "The struggle for benefits is the most irrational. You don't need to worry. If we can break through the passage formation and survive, even if we can't return to this world, it's not impossible for us to contact each other. In this way, you can continue to protect the Heavenly Profound Sect. At least, you won't be suppressed too much."
The Longhuai Ancestor then looked at the other True Spirit Cultivator. This was a cultivator from the Central Plains who had just become a True Spirit Cultivator a hundred years ago. It was unknown where he got the news from, but after becoming a True Spirit, he rushed to the Eastern Sea to beg the Longhuai Ancestor for protection.
Old Ancestor Long Huai was deeply aware of the difficulty and dangers of opening up the passageway grand formation, and an additional person meant an additional portion of strength. Thus, he ordered Old Ancestor Long Huai to enter the secret grounds and use the Myriad Firmament Poison Wall to conceal his True Spirit aura.
The True Spirit Cultivator didn't wait for the Longhuai Ancestor to ask before he smiled and said, "Senior also knows that this junior is a rogue cultivator and a loner. When I went to the Eastern Sea, I left behind my inheritance in the Central Plains, waiting for fate."
Ancestor Long Huai nodded and said, "Then let's head to the northern ice plains. We must rush over to the vicinity of the passageway formation before the quintessence of the heavens and the earth of this world reacts. Otherwise, heavenly wrath will descend once the tribulation clouds above us have completely condensed six hours from now."
The three of them looked up at the clouds that had already begun to gather above their heads, and they recalled the vast divine might that Patriarch Long Huai had when he was being punished by the heavens. Their expressions changed, so they each flew up into streaks of light and chased after Patriarch Long Huai toward the north.
At the same time, in the Southern Sea's Five Element Tortoise Treasury, the five-coloured light was now empty. The True Spirit Cultivator of the Ba Gui Clan, Xiang Laozu, looked up at the sky and said with a smile, "It's about time. Hehe, the Old Man has followed the inheritance left behind by the Turtle Laozu and has finally reached the peak of the first True Spirit Realm. I don't think he's any weaker than the Longhuai Ancestor."
Standing beside Xiang Laozu was Xiang Guitian, who had chased after Yuwen Jinglei. There was a flash of darkness in his eyes, but he still forced a smile and said, "Uncle's might is unparalleled. The Turtle Laozu's ten thousand year plan will definitely become a reality in uncle's hands. Although the Longhuai Ancestor has limitless glory, who knows if he will become a gift for uncle in the end!"
The current Xiang Guitian's aura was obscure, making it hard for people to see through him. He was already a True Spirit Cultivator and was the successor of the Ba Gui Clan after Laozu.
Xiang Laozu seemed to have already guessed what Xiang Guitian was thinking and said, "You don't need to be upset that the Old Man absorbed all the five-elemental origin energy in the tortoise treasury. You have to know that this trip to the Northern Ice Plains is very important. If the Old Man and the others can't open the passage to the endless starry sky, what use is there for you to have the five-elemental origin energy? On the other hand, if the Old Man and the others can open the passage, the endless starry sky will have endless origin energy for you to absorb. What's the use of the tortoise treasury then? "
Xiang Guitian quickly said, "Uncle has misunderstood. If it wasn't for uncle's guidance, how could this little nephew inherit the Ba Gui Clan's True Spirit position? This little nephew wishes uncle a successful trip to the Northern Ice Plains and a long life!"
Xiang Laozu took a deep look at Xiang Guitian and Xiang Guitian couldn't help lowering his head even more. However, he heard Laozu say, "It doesn't matter if the Old Man lives or dies, the Ba Gui Clan is in your hands. After the Old Man leaves, you have to be careful of the Endless Mountain's Peacock royalty. The Old Man has killed quite a few members of the royal clan in order to cultivate to the peak of the first True Spirit Realm, taking their life feathers. Be careful of the revenge from the Peacock race in the future."
Xiang Guitian said absent-mindedly, "Don't worry, uncle!"
Xiang Laozu could see the perfunctory look in Xiang Guitian's eyes, but it was already the last moment of the agreement. Xiang Laozu could only sigh in his heart and say, "Even so, look after the Old Man's soul lamp. The Old Man is leaving!"
A loud roar rang out from the depths of the South China Sea. The surface of the entire South China Sea's cultivation world surged with waves and tsunamis. Every now and then, huge islands would break through the surface of the sea and rise. Countless turtle heads would emerge from the backs of the island-like turtles, howling continuously at the multicolored light that flashed across the sky.
At the same time, in the Boundless Mountain Range, in the Lingyun Valley, in the Skyward Pavilion, in the Purple Sun Palace, and outside the Western Wilderness, similar scenes were playing out. From time to time, there would be streaks of light streaking across the sky as cultivators from various sects and tribes sent off their hopes, heading towards the northernmost part of the Northern Ice Plains.
In the Northern Sea's Seven Stars Grotto-Heaven, Lu Ping said to Yin Tianchu, "Junior Brother, I'll leave Zhenling to you from now on!"
Yin Tianchu hesitated for a moment and said, "The Northern Ice Plains is extremely dangerous. Everyone in the sect wants to send you off, as well as my two sisters-in-law and my two children. Senior Brother, aren't you going to meet them?"
Lu Ping was stunned for a moment and said with a smile, "It's not like we'll be parting forever. Why do we have to make such a big scene? It looks like they're sending me off. It'll only make me worry if I meet them. It's better to leave quietly."
Yin Tianchu wanted to say something, but he held back in the end and said, "If that's the case, I'll guard the Soul Lamp in the Seven Stars Grotto-Heaven for you. However, shouldn't you give one Soul Lamp to my two sisters-in-law and four nephews to guard as a memento?"
Lu Ping thought about it and shook his head in the end. "Regarding the Soul Lamp, unless I successfully open the passage in the Northern Ice Plains and come back alive, only you need to know about it. Moreover, no one knows if the Soul Lamp will still be connected to me once I leave this world. If I give it to Tianhu and Tianying, the news will definitely not be hidden anymore. If I leave this world and cut off my connection with the Soul Lamp, the sect will think that I'm dead. It'll be troublesome if it causes chaos in the sect."
Yin Tianchu still wanted to persuade him, but he heard Lu Ping say, "It's time. With my current cultivation, I can only stay outside of winter for six hours. Otherwise, I'll definitely be punished. Junior Brother, don't say anything more. I'm going north immediately."
A dragon's roar sounded in the sky above Heaven's Spirit Mountain. A purple-gold True Dragon turned into light and flew out of the Seven Stars Grotto-Heaven. The True Spirit Cultivators gathered on Heaven's Spirit Island only saw a purple-gold light flash from the top of the mountain. Then, the True Spirit's main body could be vaguely seen in the clouds above the mountain. Apart from the Life Dragon Scale under its abdomen that was engraved with nine spells, the rest of the dragon scales below its head also had several dragon scales that were engraved with spells.
The True Spirit Dragon circled twice in the clouds. Then, with a deep and distant roar, the sea of clouds shook and went straight into the sky.
