This Thearch was extremely burly and majestic, and his entire body was enveloped in reddish-gold light.
He stood proudly on the Divine Sun Cauldron. He was only nine feet tall, but it was as if he was one with the heavens.
As the light around him flickered, space was being created and destroyed. Endless power transformed into divine light that covered his entire body, making it impossible to see his face clearly.
"Young fated ones, welcome to this emperor's tomb."
The Thearch's majesty seemed to dominate the world.
However, his voice was exceptionally gentle, without the slightest sense of aggression.
On the contrary, this Thearch's voice was as gentle as jade. He was like a friendly neighbor's uncle, making people want to get close to him.
Perhaps this was the so-called returning to one's natural state!
The heavenly aura around the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader fluctuated gently. He looked up at the Thearch before him, and the sword in his hand retracted its light.
Thearchs were the main characters of an era.
It was disrespectful not to bow when seeing the Thearch.
Even if they were facing a wisp of the Thearch's remnant consciousness, they could not fight and had to bow to him.
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader said coldly, "Senior, you have appeared here. Could it be that you are the legendary Golden Crow Thearch?"
The Monarch nodded slowly and said gently, "That's right. This Monarch built this tomb on Immortal Abode Island for three reasons. Firstly, it's to suppress the providence of my Golden Crow Clan. Secondly, it's to find a fated person to inherit my legacy.
The Thearch fell silent as if he had thought of something.
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader said calmly, "Is the third reason related to those Golden Crow vengeful spirits?"
The Thearch let out a long sigh. "Since you have already appeared in the tomb, that day must have arrived. Never mind, I will not hide it from you anymore. "
The Golden Crow Thearch said calmly, "80,000 years ago, there was once an outer realm force that wanted to invade the five regions. I stopped them outside the void passageway.
"But in that battle, most of the forces under my command also perished. The Golden Crow Court was almost unable to recover from the setback, and even I suffered an injury to my origin."
The Golden Crow Thearch's voice was filled with heartfelt emotions as if he was recalling that tragic battle.
He sighed and said, "I don't know if you, as the future generations, have encountered such enemies again. They feed on resentment, evil thoughts, and negative emotions, and their strength grows extremely fast."
"More importantly, if the cultivators of the five regions perish on the battlefield and are absorbed by them, they will quickly become nourishment, weapons, and slaves for these evil creatures to increase their strength and then turn to attack us."
"Even their cultivation methods can be used by the cultivators of the five regions. Their cultivation level increases extremely quickly, attracting a large number of cultivators with evil intentions to fall into the demonic path."
The Golden Crow Thearch spoke tirelessly, but the Saints and Heavenly Venerables were shocked.
This was because the characteristics of the "evil creatures" that the Golden Crow Thearch had mentioned were extremely similar to the Evil Spirit race that had invaded from the outer realm.
Could it be that 80,000 years ago, during the Golden Crow Thearch's era, the Evil Spirit race had already discovered the five regions and tried to invade the five regions?
If that was really the case, then the Evil Spirit race had only successfully invaded the five regions 10,000 years ago. In that case, who had been blocking them at the frontlines for the past 70,000 years?
As if sensing everyone's curiosity, the Golden Crow Thearch said calmly, "According to what I learned during my battle with these evil creatures, this is not the first time they have tried to invade the five regions. They had already invaded many times before me.
"It's just that they have always been stopped by the powerful cultivators of the five regions, and the human cultivators in the Celestial World have also restrained most of their strength.
"Even so, the power that invaded the five regions this time still exceeded my expectations.
"Even my nine biological children perished in this battle. Their souls were tainted by the invaders' Thearchs and turned into vengeful spirits. Even I can't do anything about it.
"One of the reasons why I built this Golden Crow Thearch's tomb was to restrain and imprison these nine children so that they would not bring harm to the human world."
The Golden Crow Thearch's voice was filled with helplessness.
Although he was an invincible Thearch who had dominated the five regions, he was first and foremost a father.
It would be very difficult for any father to kill his own children in the name of righteousness after their children turned into evil spirits and could not be purified.
The Golden Crow Thearch had already done his best to seal his own children for 80,000 years. No one could say that he was in the wrong.
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader bowed toward the Golden Crow Thearch. "Senior is so righteous. But why did we encounter the Golden Crow vengeful spirits after entering the tomb?"
The Golden Crow Thearch said calmly, "The core region of this tomb is connected to my lifeline. As long as I am still alive, the Immortal Abode Island will be sealed forever.
"Now that the Immortal Abode Island has reappeared in the five regions, it's naturally because..."
The Golden Crow Thearch did not continue, but the information in his words was already enough to astonish countless people.
As long as the Golden Crow Thearch was still alive, the Immortal Abode Island would continue to be sealed forever.
Then now that the Immortal Abode Island had reappeared, did it mean that the Golden Crow Thearch, who had ascended to the Celestial World, had already fallen?
In that instant, countless people felt a faint sorrow.
That was a Thearch, an absolutely invincible existence in the five regions. He had already been a legend 80,000 years ago.
There was also the danger of such a powerful being dying in the Celestial World? Could it be that the legendary Celestial World was also an incomparably cruel battlefield?
The Golden Crow Thearch said calmly, "Everyone will die one day. How can we live as long as heaven and earth? Since all of you have come here, you are all fated with me. There's no need to act like a little girl.
"I'm already dead. This tomb can probably only trap the nine Golden Crow vengeful spirits for three months at most.
"I wonder if there is anyone in the five regions who can purify them for me. If there is a junior who can do this, I will be very grateful.
"If all of you are unable to purify the nine Golden Crow vengeful spirits, please do not leave this Small World. One month later, the tomb will automatically send all of you out of the Immortal Abode Island and then burn the entire island.
"At that time, my nine children will also be turned into ashes and will no longer be a threat to the world."
The Golden Crow Thearch's voice was very indifferent. This should not be a soul but just a remnant consciousness left behind.
However, no matter how calm he was, everyone could feel that the Thearch's love for his nine children was not just for show.
...
After all, mortals and immortals were worlds apart. Even though the Golden Crow Thearch was a Thearch, it was not easy to seal the entire Immortal Abode Island with himself as the array core after ascending.
Furthermore, he had to ensure that the nine Golden Crow vengeful spirits would not come out to harm the world.
The price he needed to pay was definitely enough to make countless Sages despair. Even Thearchs would feel heartache.
If the Golden Crow Thearch did not use a portion of his power to maintain the tomb's seal, he might not have died in the Celestial World. He might even have successfully escaped and survived.
Even so, the Golden Crow Thearch did not give up on the nine Golden Crow princes. He chose to leave hope for the future.
There was no need to say more words about his love for his children.
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader's heavenly aura fluctuated. He chanted a Daoist name. "Your righteousness is admirable. We will do our best to purify the nine Golden Crow princes."
Purifying and destroying were two completely different concepts. Although the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader had destroyed two Golden Crows previously, those two Golden Crows were not dead.
However, the two Golden Crows did not die. Their power was only temporarily dispersed by the lightning.
They would recover after a period of time.
There were only two ways to completely eliminate the threat of these nine Golden Crows.
The first was to kill them at their roots, destroying their souls and preventing them from reincarnating.
The second was to completely purify their souls and get rid of the Evil Spirit Aura on them before sending them to the afterlife.
However, regardless of whether it was the first or second method, it was rather difficult.
The first method was to kill the Golden Crows. These nine Golden Crows had been sealed in the tomb for 80,000 years and had long become one with the tomb's power. They could use the tomb's power to recover at any time.
As long as the tomb was not destroyed, these Golden Crows could almost constantly recover their power. It was very difficult to kill them.
In particular, these Golden Crows were adept at joint attacks. Two of them could force Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus to cry for his parents.
If all nine Golden Crows broke out of seclusion and joined forces, even a Sub-Thearch might not be able to suppress them!
Furthermore, everyone's cultivation level was suppressed in the Golden Crow Great Thearch's tomb. It was simply impossible to kill the nine Golden Crows with Heavenly Venerate cultivation.
Yeap, if Shen Tian's cultivation level reached the Soul Formation stage, he could give it a try.
The problem was that the current him was just a pitiful Golden Body cultivator. He had not even entered the Soul Formation stage!
As for the second method, purifying these nine Golden Crows, there was no need to talk about it.
Simply put, even the Golden Crow Thearch could not do anything about the Evil Spirit Aura in these nine little Golden Crows.
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader naturally did not think that his methods were more brilliant than the Golden Crow Thearch's.
But even if I can't do it, it doesn't mean that my disciple can't do it!
He was very confident!
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader remembered very clearly that his disciple had taken a supreme Immortal artifact from the Primordial Battlefield that was specially used to purify vengeful spirits and Evil Spirits — the Six Paths of Reincarnation Disk.
As the third item on the Mystic Earth List, the Pure Reincarnation Soil was the most effective extraordinary item against the Evil Spirit race.
Not to mention that it had been forged into the Reincarnation Sacred Ground's supreme treasure — the Six Paths of Reincarnation Disk.
Even that real Evil Spirit had been firmly suppressed by the Six Paths of Reincarnation Disk, not to mention these nine Golden Crows who had only been infected by the Evil Spirit Aura.
Also, Shen Tian had Ye Qingcang with him. Even in the Celestial World, he was definitely an existence with a transcendent status.
With these two factors, the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader believed that it should not be difficult to purify the Golden Crows.
After all, the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader had carefully studied the life stories of the past Sons of Providence.
For example, according to the common experiences of those people with great providence recorded in the book "I'm Really Not a Son of Providence"...
As long as one encountered some trouble that others could not solve in a certain mystic realm, it would definitely be the opportunity for the main character, the Son of Providence, to show off.
He would help the Golden Crow Thearch to purify the nine Golden Crows and then obtain the Thearch's gratitude and recognition. He would then impart all the supreme mystic techniques to the main character.
Even the Thearch artifact, the Divine Sun Cauldron, would be given to the main character as a thank you gift.
...
Yeap, that's right. That's basically how the script is written.
Now it's time for you to perform. All the best, Tian 'er. I have high hopes for you!
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader's lightning and heavenly aura rippled more and more clearly.
