The misty region outside the Demon Mountain City vanished in the span of a single night, leaving no traces behind. This caused the passing demonic beasts to feel extremely puzzled.
However, this seemed to be an extremely minor matter. In the Royal Capital of Grand Xia, there was basically no one who would know of this. What happened in this remote and desolate region would cause a huge wave of commotion. At the same time, it would also change the history of Grand Xia.
In the Demon Region, at the peak of a mountain, the great roc stood proudly in the air. This was the solitude of a king.
However today, a silhouette flickered over from afar. The demonic beasts howled, wanting to obstruct her. However, the silhouette was proficient in spatial manipulation and could perform spatial teleportation. But even so, the silhouette was intercepted by the demonic beasts.
"Allow her to pass." The great roc coldly spoke. Instantly, the demonic beasts all retreated, allowing the beautiful maiden who was as beautiful as a snow lotus to pass through. This caused the demonic beasts to incline their heads in bewilderment. Did their king recognize this human maiden?
Qing 'er's silhouette flickered as she arrived at the peak of the mountain, standing beside Qin Wentian.
She took out a golden page as well as an interspatial ring and handed it over to Qin Wentian. At the same time, a melodious voice rang out, "Take a look and see if this is of any use."
Qin Wentian received the golden page. He could sense the runic inscriptions on it. His will sank into it and instantly, the runic inscriptions flashed through his mind as an ancient and powerful cultivation art was imprinted into his mind.
Qin Wentian's heart pounded violently as he thought about it. Even his gigantic body couldn't help but tremble involuntarily.
"Great Nirvana Immortal Art, using the art of nirvanic rebirth to create a body of truth that is completely identical to the original." Qin Wentian's claws that were holding onto the golden page also trembled. His eyes gleamed with a terrifying light as he slowly turned his gaze over, staring at Qing 'er who was beside him. Her gaze was as calm as ever, Cold, as though she would always be like this.
"Qing'er, how did you get it?" Qin Wentian's voice trembled slightly. Such a terrifying technique could completely mold another true self. This was too terrifying. As long as one was alive, it would be indestructible. Furthermore, the two bodies could cultivate in different directions. The reborn true body would be exactly the same as the original body, but after that, it could choose its own path and cultivate in different directions.
To a stellar martial cultivator, it was equivalent to having an additional life. With two lives, one could survive, comprehend, and battle. Even if one of them died, they would still be alive. Such a cultivation art definitely wasn't something the Grand Xia Empire could possess. No wonder it was known as the Great Nirvana Immortal Art.
Where did Qing 'er come from? She disappeared without a trace these past few days, was it actually because of this? What price did she pay to obtain it?
"Within the interspatial ring, there are treasures required for cultivation, I should be able to mold a true self body," Qing'er didn't reply to Qin Wentian's words. She then continued, "Send me back."
Qin Wentian clutched the interspatial ring tightly, his claws were so sharp that it felt as though they were about to tear his flesh apart. The Great Nirvana Immortal Art was able to mold a true self body, but it required treasures that he had never heard of before. But just from the name alone, he could tell that these were all priceless treasures.
"Mhm." Qin Wentian heavily nodded his head. With this Great Nirvana Immortal Art, not only would he be able to restore his true self body, he would even be able to form an avatar of a great roc. Such a perfect thing was like a heavenly surprise. However, Qin Wentian didn't feel as excited or happy as he had imagined. There was only a heavy feeling in his heart.
Although Qing'er was still Cold and didn't like to speak, this feeling of hers weighed heavily on his heart.
Qing'er's silhouette flickered as she sat on the back of the great roc.
The great roc spread its 3,000-meter-long wings, blotting out the sun. A raging wind gusted as the great roc soared up into the skies, "Demon General Scarlet Wing, I shall temporarily leave this place to you. The other nine demon sovereigns shall assist you."
As the sound of its voice faded, the great roc soared up into the clouds. Qing'er quietly sat on Qin Wentian's back, the scene was as beautiful as a painting.
"Qing'er, memorize this art as well. In the future, if you obtain the materials, you can use it to mold a true self body." Qin Wentian spoke in a low voice. Qing'er nodded her head lightly, "I've seen it. However, other than the two of us, only Master knows of this. There must be no fourth person who knows of the existence of the Great Nirvana Immortal Art."
Qing'er solemnly instructed. Qin Wentian naturally understood. Even if Qing'er didn't say it, he knew what he should do. If such an immortal art was made known to others, the commotion it would cause wouldn't just be limited to the Grand Xia Empire.
After that, even if he could condense a true body, the great roc and Qin Wentian must never appear at the same time.
He could let others know that he had reversed the Demonic Divinity Sacrificial Transformation Art and was able to transform into a human. However, he must never let others know that he had not only reversed the Demonic Divinity Sacrificial Transformation Art, he had also created another body of truth.
Within the Celestial Lake Palace, the silhouette of the great roc and Qing'er descended onto the ground. Fairy Qingmei instantly appeared, staring at the great roc and Qing'er with a smile on her face. Qing'er had already told her about the secret art of reversing the Demonic Divinity Sacrificial Transformation Art. Fairy Qingmei naturally felt gratified in her heart.
"Wentian, I've already found the location of those from the White Deer Institute and the Zong Clan." Fairy Qingmei stared at the great roc as she spoke.
"Senior, I'll need you to help me investigate the other transcendent powers of the Hidden Faction. I'll mark their locations on the map. Also, I'll be rebuilding my sect, and I'll need Senior's guidance." Qin Wentian spoke to Fairy Qingmei, his words causing a brilliant light to flicker in Fairy Qingmei's eyes. It seemed like Qin Wentian had already made his preparations.
He had already started planning, gathering all the powers of the hidden Azure Faction.
"This matter still needs to be discussed at length. Safety needs to be the first priority. After all, even if all the powers of the hidden Azure Faction were added together, they still wouldn't be able to match up to a transcendent power." Fairy Qingmei stated.
"I understand. Hence, the power I'm going to rebuild will be a brand new power, and won't have any connections with the previous ones. This is why we need to conceal ourselves from the public, and proceed in a stealthy manner." Qin Wentian nodded.
"Seems like you already have a plan. As for the location of the sect, you can consider the Celestial Lake Palace. It's the safest place." Fairy Qingmei suggested.
"Here, are the nine ultimate arts of Grand Xia. Senior, you can pass them to the leaders of the White Deer Institute and the Zong Clan, allowing them to accumulate their strength and develop further. When they see the nine ultimate arts of Grand Xia, they will naturally understand my intentions." Qin Wentian took out the Divine Stele and passed it to Fairy Qingmei. He had absolute trust in Fairy Qingmei. For the sake of the Azure Emperor, she would definitely do this.
Fairy Qingmei stared at Qin Wentian as a smile appeared in her beautiful eyes. "Being able to hand over the nine ultimate arts of Grand Xia to your subordinates, your courage and resolution is even higher compared to the Azure Emperor back then. If this matter were to spread out, the White Deer Institute and Zong Clan would both be in danger."
"The leaders of the White Deer Institute and Zong Clan would naturally know what to do. There's no need for us to worry about them. If Senior were to consider betraying us, not only me, Senior wouldn't spare them either." Qin Wentian casually stated. Fairy Qingmei nodded her head, that was indeed the case.
However, after conversing with Qin Wentian today, she could see that after experiencing so many things, Qin Wentian's personality was gradually changing. However, the stubbornness in his heart had never wavered.
"I need to enter closed-door seclusion. Not only that, it's hard to estimate how long I'll need." Qin Wentian stated in a low voice. The Great Nirvana Immortal Art, using the art of nirvanic rebirth to form a body of truth, wasn't something that could be achieved so easily. Only after a long period of time would one be able to form a perfect body of truth.
Now that he had transformed into a great roc, the amount of time required would be even longer.
"I'll help you." Qing 'er spoke in a low voice, her words causing Qin Wentian's eyes to widen as he stared at her. Upon seeing Qing' er's cold expression, a warm smile appeared in his eyes.
"Qing 'er, you have to cultivate as well. I'll make sure everything is in order." Fairy Qingmei shook her head. "Wentian, just stay here and cultivate. I'll make sure nothing in the outside world will disturb you."
"Mhm." Qin Wentian nodded his head.
"Qing 'er, let's go." Fairy Qingmei spoke to Qing 'er. Qing' er cast a glance at Qin Wentian before nodding her head lightly and departing together with Fairy Qingmei. Very swiftly, this area was completely sealed off. Silence filled the air, not a single sound could be heard.
Qin Wentian stretched out his talons, retrieving the golden page once more. Great Nirvana Immortal Art.
A terrifying gleam of sharpness flickered in the eyes of the great roc. His gaze was incomparably sharp as he stared at the Heavens.
"Qingcheng!" The great roc murmured in a low voice. Within his eyes, snowflakes drifted down. Beneath the ancient tree, that empire-toppling young lady smiled sweetly, causing the heavens and earth to lose their color.
… …
Qin Wentian, who had transformed into a great roc, started his closed-door seclusion. However, the flow of time wouldn't wait for him. In Grand Xia, there were still major events happening every day.
As for Qin Wentian and Mo Qingcheng, they no longer appeared in Grand Xia. This caused the spectators to sigh. Did this pair of stunning beauties vanish just like that?
Yet another year passed. Many major events occurred in this year, but the one that attracted the most attention was still the rise of the younger generation. In the previous ranking battle, there were many outstanding characters that were constantly advancing, surpassing those of the previous generations.
Not only that, for those who had yet to enter the Heavenly Fate Rankings, there were also many characters that rose up.
And the most dazzling of them all, was none other than Hua Taixu. He was only thirty plus years of age and had already stepped into the fourth level of Heavenly Dipper, defeating several fifth-level Heavenly Dipper Sovereigns. He was like the sun in the sky, with no one in the same generation as him being able to stand shoulder to shoulder with him. Not only that, he unceasingly surpassed those of the older generation and was hailed as the number one genius in Grand Xia in the past hundred years. In the future, there was a high chance that he would be able to step into Celestial Phenomenon.
Other than Hua Taixu, Chen Wang from the Chen Clan, Shi Potian from the Shi Clan, and Ouyang Kuangsheng from the Ouyang Aristocrat Clan were all extremely powerful as well. But the most eye-catching was a transcendent power that stood aloof from worldly affairs, the Unmatched Realm.
Leaving aside the fact that the Unmatched Realm had accepted many disciples from the transcendent powers, even those who weren't from the transcendent powers also had shocking achievements within the Unmatched Realm. Qin Zheng, Yun Mengyi, Chu Mang, Fan Le and the others all gradually stood out. When they roamed the outside world, they would often make enemies out with those from the transcendent powers, showing no mercy at all. Hence, they were all wanted by several transcendent powers.
But the most eye-catching was none other than Bai Qing from the Mystic Moon Hall. Back then during the Heavenly Fate Rankings, when Bai Qing called out 'Wentian gege', it was unknown how many hearts were broken. Now, her devil arts seemed to have evolved to an even stronger level. She was akin to a devil that walked out from the depths of purgatory, akin to a death god in the darkness of the night.
The Pill Emperor Hall, Chen Clan, Wang Clan, Star-Seizing Manor, and other transcendent powers had all been killed by her in the darkness. She herself had also been ambushed a few times and suffered heavy injuries. But every time, she would be lucky enough to escape, continuing her slaughter with no fear of death. This caused her to become a thorn in the eyes of many transcendent powers.
And all of this, the young man who was still in closed-door seclusion in the Celestial Lake Palace had no idea!
