Time flew by.
The lower realm was peaceful.
Several years had passed since the triumphant return from the Ruins of God and the great change of the Celestial World.
Whether it was the four Celestial Regions, the Abandoned Land, or the Prison of Rakshasa, there were no unexpected changes.
When those who were observant looked back at the past few years, they would discover that other than the occasional strangely shaped cauldron that would appear above the three regions' heads and twist the world around them, the three regions had experienced unprecedented peace in their history.
Under this peace, the Bone-burying Plateau had become the center of communication between the three regions.
The one that guarded this center and made the three regions obey orders was the inconspicuous Heaven Fighting Tower.
Now, Heaven Fighting Tower had become an unimaginable behemoth. It was so huge that people had the illusion that Heaven Fighting Palace was a subsidiary of Heaven Fighting Tower.
Heaven Fighting Tower was unimaginably powerful.
However, the structure of the organization was also confusing.
The one in charge of Heaven Fighting Tower was the Prison Emperor of Rakshasa, Luo Jiao.
The elders below her, such as Chu Tiankuo and Old Man of the Heavenly Dao, were half-dead.
Under the elders were the guardians, such as Chu Lingxian, Gongsun Tang, and Moqi Xingchen.
Under the guardians were the deacons, such as Hou Yu, who was comparable to the three prodigies, and Killing Sword.
Under the deacons were the instructors...
What was shocking was the new instructor position that Heaven Fighting Tower had added a few years ago.
"Greetings, Instructor Zuoqiu!"
"Instructor Zuoqiu Heng, may I ask when you will be free? I still have some doubts about your lesson yesterday..."
"Instructor Zuoqiu Dan, look at my mystique... Aiya, the red-dressed instructor is here. Instructor Zuoqiu Dan, farewell!"
"Wow, it's the black-robed instructor. He looks so cool!"
...
There were exactly four instructor positions in Heaven Fighting Tower, and they were all occupied by Zuoqiu Dan and Zuoqiu Heng.
In the eyes of outsiders, the four of them were forced by Xie Tian and had no choice but to do so.
But the truth was that the four had volunteered.
The reason was simple...
Because Xie Tian had ignored them for years.
Moreover, in the past few years, none of the cultivators or Rakshasa from the three lower realms had survived to see them.
After he answered the questions of the cultivators of the Heaven Fight Pavilion, Zuoqiu Heng raised his head to look into the sky, and he heaved a sigh of relief when he didn't see the enormous cauldron that warped the heavens and the earth.
"Brother, have you noticed?" Zuoqiu Dan, who was also observing the sky, said in a low voice, "The interval between the appearance of the cauldron is getting longer and longer."
Zuoqiu Heng nodded imperceptibly, and then he replied in a low voice as well. "This shows that the frequency at which the Higher Dimensions descend has slowed down."
"Alas …" Zuoqiu Dan sighed faintly and said worriedly, "This isn't a good thing."
Zuoqiu Heng sighed with empathy, and at the same time, he recalled the battle from three years ago for the umpteenth time.
In that battle, the strange cauldron almost distorted the entire lower realm. Almost all of the living beings in the Immortal World were prostrated on the ground, shivering.
"That's a half-step Daozu with a rare treasure from the Heavenly Court …"
Descending to the Immortal Dimension with a rare treasure from the Heavenly Court would allow one to exist in the Immortal Dimension with the cultivation of a Saint just like Huang Er.
However, right when Zuoqiu Heng was delighted that he was about to leave this abnormal lower realm, the Half-step Daozu that descended to the mortal dimension was transformed into nothingness amidst a shrill and miserable cry.
After this battle, the frequency at which the three regions of the Higher Dimensions descended to the mortal dimension dropped sharply. Up until now, it had already been three months since anyone had descended to the mortal dimension.
"I'm afraid we won't be able to return." When he thought up to here, Zuoqiu Heng muttered bitterly to himself.
"It can't be, right?" Zuoqiu Dan was on the verge of tears. "Could it be that we're going to be an instructor here forever?"
Zuoqiu Heng laughed in self-ridicule. "Perhaps even this is an extravagant hope. Could it be that you're sure that Xie Tian who left us hanging for a few years really doesn't have the intention to kill us?"
"You didn't die in the Ruins of God, and you won't die outside the Ruins of God."
A cold voice sounded out from the nearby Black Clothed.
After a few years, Black Clothed's cultivation had improved greatly, and he was now at the intermediate-stage of the Dao Enlightenment Realm.
Black Clothed glanced at Zuoqiu Dan who had a pale countenance and said coldly, "If you're afraid of death, then think about it properly. Do you have the qualifications to be killed by Xie Tian?"
"You …"
Zuoqiu Dan who was unable to defeat Black Clothed only dared to be furious, yet he didn't dare speak a word.
Zuoqiu Heng sneered instead. "Someone as cold and arrogant as Black Clothed has actually become like this now. You've been beaten into submission by Xie Tian, right!?"
"As if you haven't been beaten!" Black Clothed refuted coldly.
"Pfft!" The corners of Zuoqiu Heng's mouth twitched. "At least I won't be defeated by a single punch of his!"
"You …"
"Now, who has the qualifications to receive a punch from him …?"
Hong Yi who passed by spoke coldly, and it ended the quarrel between the three of them.
"In any case, you don't have the qualifications even if you're at the 6th level of the Dao Enlightenment Realm …" Zuoqiu Heng muttered in a low voice, and then his eyes suddenly lit up. "Hong Yi, could it be that you have new information?"
"Supposedly, he's about to come out from closed door cultivation …"
The Rakshasa Prison.
The ominous star, Rakshasa Palace.
The palace where 'Luo Mo' had once lived.
Incense curled up into the air within the palace. The Rakshasa Imperial Monarch, Luo Mei, wore an alluring black veil as she knelt on the ground, and her fair and smooth feet were revealed.
She had a respectful expression as she stared at Xie Tian who'd been in closed door cultivation for three months, and her eyes were filled with dense and almost blind adoration.
"At the very least, even Shen Wushuang was unable to truly rule over the three territories, yet my Master has done it …"
Right at this moment, a shocking imposing aura erupted from Xie Tian's body.
As soon as this imposing aura emerged, even someone as strong as Luo Mei instinctively closed her eyes while her upper body leaned back slightly, and it seemed as if the imposing aura that assaulted her was extremely oppressive.
However, this imposing aura didn't last for long before it gradually restrained itself. When Xie Tian opened his blood red eyes, he'd once again become an ordinary cultivator that was easily overlooked.
"Congratulations on your improvement in cultivation, Master …"
Luo Mei's voice stopped, and she raised her head in astonishment.
At this moment, she noticed that the faint aura of cultivation that effused out from Xie Tian's body was still at the 3rd level of the Dao Enlightenment Realm.
"Master, you …"
Xie Tian didn't explain and asked in Silence, "What's the situation like?"
"Reporting to Master, the situation in the three territories is stable, and there are no unforeseen events. Oh right …" Recalling something, Luo Mei hurriedly raised her head. "I've found clues about Luo Shang."
Xie Tian's blood red eyes narrowed slightly. "He's not in this realm, right?"
"Yes." Luo Mei replied, "I've searched for information about the inauspicious star, Rakshasa Palace, and found a total of 139 sealed Teleportation Arrays. After checking them one by one, I discovered that one of them has been abandoned, and this one is the Teleportation Array that leads to the Upper Realm's Rakshasa Prison …"
"Then I'm relieved."
Xie Tian got up and walked towards the palace door.
Seeing that her Master was about to leave, Luo Mei's heart trembled, and she hurriedly shifted her knees to face Xie Tian's back, and anxiously called out, "Master …"
"From today onwards, your Master is Little Bell. Take good care of her."
Creak.
The palace door opened.
Scarlet sunlight shone in.
It made Xie Tian look extremely stern.
Even though he couldn't see the Star Graveyard in the eyes of the gods in Rakshasa Prison, Xie Tian, who was looking up, knew where it was.
Huang Er, who had been guarding outside the palace, had a solemn expression.
He didn't want to care about the matter of the Evil Emperor's successor.
But seeing that his unreliable Master still had the intention to continue, he couldn't help but speak.
"This path won't work."
"If we don't go, who will know?"
Xie Tian strode forward, and when he passed by Huang Er, he stopped and looked at him.
"I'm Xie Tian."
