Su Ming lifted his head. His gaze landed on the jade slip, and a hint of pensive expression appeared on his face. After some time, he stood up and swung his arm. Immediately, the middle-aged scholar's dead physical body was torn to shreds and reduced to ashes before him.
'The strongest person in Seven Moons Sect, the great sect elder of the first line … Gu Tai, who is known as Sect Master …' Su Ming was not unfamiliar with this person. After all, he had been in Seven Moons Sect for around fifty years. When he had woken up, he had received guidance from the person who seemed to be Tian Xie Zi, which allowed Su Ming to gain quite a large amount of knowledge regarding Ancient Zang.
'This person is also the one who reminded me that if I want to fuse with the Seven Lives Art, I will need to destroy it before creating it.' A glint appeared in Su Ming's eyes, and the pensive look in them disappeared. Once he returned to normal, he lifted his right hand and took the jade slip before taking a step into the air.
With it, the jade slip in his hand shone with a dazzling light. It instantly turned into a vortex that submerged Su Ming within it, and he disappeared from the fifth layer of Sky Beyond the Sky.
At that moment, the thirteen great sect elders, including Dao Han, were sitting on a tall altar at the center of the first continent in the seventh layer of Sky Beyond the Sky.
At that moment, a vortex appeared out of nowhere at the center of the altar. When it dissipated and the thirteen people looked over, Su Ming's figure gradually appeared.
"Greetings, great sect elders." Su Ming swept his gaze across the area, then wrapped his fist in his palm and bowed to them. He might not belong to that sect and he had his own goal in coming to it … but he had seen the sect attack when they faced One Dao Sect, and it had touched him slightly.
That was why he bowed to them at that moment.
The gazes of the thirteen great sect elders landed on Su Ming. This was the first time many of them saw him face to face. At that moment, the middle-aged man with the sky-blue Daoist robe, who was Su Ming's Master in Seven Moons Sect, smiled.
"My disciple, don't be reserved. We have long since learned of your identity, and it is precisely because of it that I was in a hurry to become your Master in the past. I hope … that you will not blame me for this, third prince."
When Su Ming heard those words, his expression might have remained calm, but he did not expect that his Master would admit to it so easily. Because of it, Su Ming gained some respect for his Master in Seven Moons Sect.
"Third prince, please sit." The person who spoke was Gu Tai, one of the thirteen great sect elders. A smile appeared on his face, and there was praise on his face. When he spoke to Su Ming slowly, Su Ming did not refuse. Instead, he sat down cross-legged.
"I'm sure that with the Third Prince's Imperial Bloodline, your cultivation base, and your intelligence, you'll definitely be able to see some clues from our cultivation base. Here … apart from Dao Han, who joined the sect later and whose cultivation base is at the Third Level Dao Spirit Realm, eight of the thirteen people are at the Seventh Level Dao Master Realm, while the other four are at the Fifth or Sixth Level Dao God Realm.
"We are Seven Moons Sect's support. As long as we exist, Seven Moons Sect will exist. If we die … then Seven Moons Sect … will no longer exist," Gu Tai said faintly.
Ming did not speak. of. of Su of of of of of of Ming 'Qing.
"Don't blame Xu Zhong Fan. He is indeed in a hurry to become your Master, because only by doing so can he form a slight connection with your Life Matrix. Only then will he have a chance to take a gamble on the possibility of becoming a Great Dao Paragon.
"But … you must know that this sort of gamble is also filled with determination. This determination came from the moment he said that he wanted to become your Master. From then on … your survival is bound to be the thing he cares about the most. Your success or failure is bound to be a challenge he cannot avoid.
"If you fail, he will lose his cultivation base, the remaining years of his life, and all his fate. The stakes in this gamble are so great that I hope you don't understand it.
"In fact, even if I attack you right now, do you believe that your Master will grit his teeth and turn against you? No matter what, he will save you, because he has already formed a connection with your Life Matrix that cannot be severed," Gu Tai said slowly while casting Su Ming a deep glance.
"It is precisely because of this that I made the decision to drag Seven Moons Sect into the fight for the throne and help you with everything I have! "Because … be it Xu Zhong Fan or the other eleven great sect elders, in truth … they are all my disciples!"
Once he said those words, Su Ming's expression changed. This was something he did not know.
"However, once they achieved their Dao, I asked them not to call me Master. My disciples have formed a connection with your Life Matrix, and as their Master, I have also been dragged into this.
"That is why from now on, the thirteen of us and the hundreds of thousands of disciples in Seven Moons Sect will help you with everything we have!" Gu Tai's voice echoed in the air, causing Su Ming to remain silent for a short period of time before he turned his head to cast a glance at his Master. Xu Zhong Fan was feeling slightly guilty at that moment, but Su Ming did not know whether he was feeling guilty towards Su Ming or his Master.
In the end, Su Ming cast his gaze on Gu Tai.
"What do I need to do?" Su Ming asked calmly. His words and tone were no longer speaking as a disciple of Seven Moons Sect, but as equals to the people around him.
"The eldest prince has One Dao Sect's help. One Dao Sect is so strong that it is the leader of the seven sects! "The second prince has Asura Clan's help. Asura Clan is an outsider sect, but its strength is also unfathomable. In fact … it surpasses One Dao Sect in certain aspects!
"Because Asura Clan has one of the three legendary ninth level Dao Gods in Ancient Zang — Heaven Asura!" When Gu Tai said those words, the expressions of the twelve sect elders in the area changed. Clearly, this was the first time they had heard of this.
"But Senior Heaven Asura has been in isolation for a long time. Unless Asura Clan runs into a matter of life and death, he will not come out of isolation, and neither will he join the fight for the throne.
"Because if he wants to join, then the first person he will have to face … is your father, the Ancient Emperor, who is also one of the three ninth level Dao Gods in Ancient Zang!
"One Dao Sect and Asura Clan are the two great enemies you will have to face right now, because the kismet of these two sects is the same as Seven Moons Sect's. They have already formed a connection that cannot be severed from you three princes!
"Because of that, the other sects and clans will gradually gather together around the three of us, and three thousand years later … a war to fight for the throne will erupt!
"But the prerequisite is that you will not die before that war arrives! "This is something you must remember. If you die, then Seven Moons Sect will be eliminated from the fight for the throne.
"This is one of the reasons. Secondly, while your level of cultivation is already in Dao Spirit Realm, it is not stable. You need to sound your Dao Spirit Voice. This is a major event, and Seven Moons Sect will make detailed preparations. At that time, all the sects and clans in Ancient Zang will witness you sounding your Dao Spirit Voice. By doing so … we can help you build momentum!
"Thirdly, your level of cultivation is still not high enough. We cannot help you too much in terms of cultivation, but the Phala of Dao Verification that comes once every ten thousand aeons is about to ripen. This time, all of Ancient Zang will fight for it.
"The Phala of Dao Verification blooms once every five thousand aeons, and when it blooms for another five thousand aeons, the Phala of Dao Verification will bear fruit. Each time, there will only be two fruits, and one of them will be big and one small!
The big one can be refined into a supreme treasure. This treasure can contain all manner of things in the world, and it is indescribably amazing. "The small one … is the most valuable. Once you swallow it and isolate yourself for three months, your level of cultivation will increase by one to three levels of Dao Divinity Realm. However, you will need to be in Dao Spirit Realm to consume it, and once it takes effect, it will be limited to those below Dao Paragon Realm!
"This is the eighth time the Phala of Dao Verification has borne fruit!
"Fourth, you lack Enchanted Treasures. In terms of Enchanted Treasures, the treasures in Seven Moons Sect are no longer suitable for you to use. Guru Xing Chen might have been the one who was intentionally summoned by Sect Elder Lan Lan, but it is also in line with our wishes.
"By the looks of it, you should have some clues as well. We will do our best to help you search for his whip that can move stars!
"Fifthly, what you need to do in the end is to complete all of these and move to the top. Once you become the emperor, then Seven Moons Sect will reach the sky in one step. The thirteen of us will also become Great Dao Paragons because of kismet, and I … will have hope of becoming a ninth level Dao Divinity Realm," Gu Tai said slowly while staring at Su Ming.
Su Ming was silent for a moment before he asked, "Since ancient times, have all the Great Dao Paragons reached their level like this?"
"No, this is a shortcut, or else One Dao Sect and Asura Clan would not be so passionate about this," Gu Tai said calmly while looking at Su Ming.
"I can do anything else, but it's not as if there are no Enchanted Treasures I need in Seven Moons Sect," Su Ming suddenly said.
When he said those words, a smile appeared at the corners of Gu Tai's lips.
"Tell me. I knew that since you chose to come to Seven Moons Sect, you must have taken a fancy to something, which is why you hid your identity and wanted to sneak in."
"I want the pearl in his hand!" Su Ming did not hesitate, and neither did he continue hiding it. As he spoke, he looked at Dao Han.
At the instant Su Ming spoke, Dao Han frowned slightly.
"This isn't a pearl, this is …" Gu Tai was silent for a while. Clearly, he did not expect that Su Ming would want this. When he lifted his right hand, Dao Han immediately unfurled his palm. The pearl that had always been in his palm flew up and charged towards Gu Tai. Gu Tai held it in his hand.
"This is … a Phala! The Phala I mentioned to you just now has a big one and a small one. This is the Phala I snatched at the peak of my power during the previous battle of Dao Verification.
"This item is known as a Reversed Spirit Pearl, and it was refined into a supreme treasure that will be passed down in Seven Moons Sect …" Gu Tai said softly, as if he was thinking about something.
"I don't need to have this item for a long period of time. I only want to borrow it," Su Ming said calmly while staring at the pearl in Gu Tai's hand.
"Oh?" Gu Tai lifted his head. Once he cast Su Ming a glance, he smiled faintly. He lifted his right hand and flung it forward, and the pearl charged towards Su Ming.
"Seven Moons Sect can stake its kismet on you. It's just an external object, so why should I mind giving it to you?!"
Su Ming lifted his hand and took the pearl. At the instant he touched it, a powerful light immediately erupted from it. As that light changed, there seemed to be a roar coming from within, as if it was cheering. It was a call that caused Su Ming's heart to tremble.
