"Tian 'er, step back."
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader's lightning and heavenly aura trembled as he slowly walked in front of Shen Tian and faced the Golden Crow Thearch's projection.
"You old bird, you want to touch my Martial Nephew? Believe it or not, I'll stab you to death!"
Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus's body flashed with golden light, and two figures seemed ready to charge out of his body at any moment.
That was the peerless mystic technique of the Three Pure Ones. It could instantly increase Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus' battle prowess to a level that surpassed the Paramount stage.
At that moment, they did not retreat at all.
The aura of a Thearch was obviously not something an ordinary Sage could withstand.
Although the Golden Crow Thearch was only left with a remnant soul, he was also not an ordinary Thearch. He was a Thearch 80,000 years after ascending to the Celestial World.
No one knew how terrifying his cultivation level had become after ascending to the Celestial World 80,000 years ago.
But it was obvious that he could not possibly remain at the same level for 80,000 years.
Thus, even if it was just a remnant soul of the Golden Crow Thearch, its unfathomable power was not something a mere Sage could deal with.
If they were completely rational, the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader and Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus would not have stood in front of the Golden Crow Thearch.
That was because fighting such an opponent was no longer a situation where one had a slim chance of survival.
Instead, it was close to certain death. It was simply a situation of certain death.
But they still walked out resolutely and stood in front of Shen Tian without hesitation.
That was because they firmly believed that Shen Tian was the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground's future. He was the Son of Providence who would lead the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground to a new peak.
That was because they firmly believed that even if 10 of them died in exchange for one Shen Tian's rise, it would definitely be worth it.
That was because they firmly believed that the Golden Crow Thearch would not make a move.
...
Yes, they firmly believed that the Golden Crow Thearch would not make a move.
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader and Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus' ears and brains were fine, so they naturally heard the Golden Crow Thearch's words.
On the mobile app:
(Mimi Read)
He had said "I originally wanted to borrow Shen Tian's body to live a second life" and "I originally thought that only my return could change the situation."
What did he mean by 'originally thought' or 'originally thought'? It meant that he no longer thought that way. He no longer thought that way!
Also, the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader and Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus did not sense any enmity or killing intent from the Golden Crow Thearch.
No matter what, the team shouldn't be wiped out this time!
Moreover, there was a super big shot from the Celestial World hidden in Tian'er's body!
They were both remnant souls, so who was afraid of whom?
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader and Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus felt that there was a high chance that their godfather would be able to win against the Golden Crow Thearch.
After all, this old fellow had been secretly developing and recovering in the five regions for so many years. How many trump cards did he have?
No one knew how strong he was.
Since that was the case, why not take advantage of the Golden Crow Thearch's provocation?
He wanted to show off his' teacher's love for his uncle 'and fiercely increase Shen Tian's favorability towards him.
Hmm?
Tian'er should be moved to tears right now!
I am simply too quick-witted!
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader and Azure Lotus looked at each other.
Zhang Xuan nodded.
He had confirmed the look in his eyes that it was the same person from back then!
…
"Master, Martial Uncle?
I think you must have misunderstood Senior Thearch. "
Shen Tian gently poked the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader and Azure Lotus' shoulders. "Senior Thearch said that he originally wanted to possess me, but he should not have such thoughts now! “
Say it?
Shen Tian looked at the Golden Crow Thearch. "Senior Thearch?
Junior's Master and Martial Uncle were confused and offended Senior. I hope Senior can forgive them! "
Haha!
The Golden Crow Thearch looked at the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader and Azure Lotus.
The gaze that shot out from the heavenly aura seemed to be smiling yet not.
It made the latter's hair stand on end.
After a long while, the Golden Crow Thearch said calmly, "Neither arrogant nor rash?
You can still be so rational when facing me. Little friend?
You are very impressive.
"That's right. I have proven my Dao for 80,000 years.
I don't want to hide it.
"Since I agreed to give Immortal Abode Island to you?
I might as well tell you the truth about the Golden Crow Thearch's tomb. “
The Golden Crow Thearch sighed softly. "Do you know?
Every 10,000 years, the five regions will actually be invaded by Evil Spirits from the outer realm.
"But every time the Evil Spirits invaded?
They were blocked outside the realm by the Thearchs of the various eras, so they never broke through. “
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader nodded slowly. "I know. 10,000 years ago, there was no Thearch in the five regions. The Evil Spirits from the outer realm successfully broke through and caused an unprecedented calamity."
The Golden Crow Thearch nodded slowly. "I also sensed that war.
"But compared to the upcoming calamity, the war 10,000 years ago can only be considered an appetizer."
The Golden Crow Thearch's words caused everyone to tremble.
The war 10,000 years ago had almost destroyed the five regions. Countless spirit veins and blessed-lands had been turned into ruins, and the Primordial Battlefield was still unapproachable.
Countless sacred grounds and races had suffered great losses in that calamity. Some sacred grounds and races had even been directly destroyed.
This kind of war was just an appetizer. It was not even worth mentioning compared to the upcoming calamity?
Then what would the five regions face? Could it be that they were going to destroy the world?
The Golden Crow Thearch sighed softly. "Do you know that the various forces and races of the Celestial World are actually also fighting against these Evil Spirits from the outer realm?
"Moreover, the Evil Spirits from the outer realm that the Celestial World is facing are far stronger than the Evil Spirits our five regions are facing.
"In other words, the Evil Spirit race that attacked the five regions once every 10,000 years was just a small group of enemies that the Celestial World's guardians had deliberately released.
"It was to temper the five regions' cultivators and create more powerful cultivators. After ascending, they would become a new force to fight against the Evil Spirit race."
The Evil Spirit race that attacked the five regions once every 10,000 years was deliberately released by the Celestial World's guardians?
The Golden Crow Thearch's words were undoubtedly very shocking.
If it was a childish and chuunibyou youth, they might have already doubted life and even cursed out loud.
However, the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader, Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus, and Shen Tian were not idiots with low IQ, so they naturally thought more.
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader's heavenly aura fluctuated gently. "In other words, every calamity in the past was actually driven or even set up by the Celestial World's guardians?"
The Golden Crow Thearch nodded slowly. "That's right. Including the Evil Spirit race's invasion 10,000 years ago, causing rivers of blood in the five regions, it was actually tacitly approved."
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader's heavenly aura fluctuated slightly. "Was it necessary to sacrifice so many lives?"
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader did not ask why as he had already guessed the reason.
The Golden Crow Thearch said calmly, "It was necessary because... an unprecedented war is about to arrive.
"A war between races does not tolerate soft-heartedness.
"Compared to the survival of the entire Celestial World and the mortal world, the losses caused by a controlled training are completely within the acceptable range.
"In fact, after that training 10,000 years ago, the five regions have indeed produced many prodigies that even the Celestial World is amazed by. I can feel their auras."
With that, he looked at the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader and Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus and said with a faint smile, "The two of you can be considered outstanding among the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground's successors.
"Be prepared for danger in times of peace. There are only so many resources. If the five regions remain in a stable environment, there will only be internal strife.
"On the contrary, after understanding the powerful external enemies, everyone will be able to unite."
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader asked, "What do you mean by an unprecedented war?"
The Golden Crow Thearch said, "The Celestial World's guardians will not be able to hold on for much longer."
The Golden Crow Thearch threw another bombshell and continued. "Why do you think I suddenly died after ascending 80,000 years ago?"
"It has been 80,000 years since I ascended. My cultivation level has long surpassed the Thearch realm and reached a realm that you can't even imagine.
"However, even I was just a pawn in that war. I could not change the situation at all.
"If I had not obtained two pages of the Blood God Sutra before ascending and used the Immortal Abode Island's special domain to build the tomb and set up the world-shocking Rebirth Array, my soul would have long been destroyed."
The Golden Crow Thearch was definitely being humble when he said that he was a pawn in the Celestial World.
However, the Celestial World's powerful cultivators were clearly beyond imagination to be able to make the Thearch sigh like that.
Shen Tian asked, "Blood God Sutra? Since Senior Thearch set up the Rebirth Array, why did you need to possess someone else's body to be reborn? "
The Golden Crow Thearch said calmly, "Little friend, you should have found that broken eggshell in my herb garden, right? That was left behind when my True Spirit broke out of the eggshell after reincarnating.
"However, only my True Spirit returned. My divine soul and physical body were destroyed, so I could not be reborn independently. I needed a peerless prodigy's Dao Fruit as a cauldron in order to be reborn."
The Golden Crow Thearch's tone was apologetic when he talked about possessing someone else's body, but he was extremely firm.
He said calmly, "Perhaps you might think that my actions are ungentlemanly and even selfish and vicious.
"But war is just that cruel. If your talent is only considered good, then you might not even have the chance to cultivate to the Thearch realm in this great disaster that is about to descend upon the five regions."
"In that case, I might as well send you to reincarnation in advance in exchange for the opportunity for me to be reborn.
"Because this Emperor's revival will be able to play a much greater role in this great calamity than a genius who has yet to mature."
Should I die just because I'm useless?
Shen Tian instinctively felt disgusted after hearing the Golden Crow Thearch's words.
After all, he was from the 21st century, and the education and worldview he had received were completely at odds with him.
However, he did not retort because he was afraid of being beaten up. He was even more afraid of offending this old bird and really possessing someone else's body on a whim.
...
Shen Tian looked at the Golden Crow Thearch. "Then why did you give up on this idea?"
The Golden Crow Thearch's gaze was deep as he said seriously, "Because your appearance is really extraordinary. It reminds me of my demeanor when I was young. I really can't bear to do it."
Shen Tian: Phew!
"Haha, I'm just joking."
The Golden Crow Thearch laughed. "To be honest, it's because your talent is indeed the most incredible I've seen in my life.
"If you ascend to the Upper Realm and undergo the baptism of Immortal Qi, even those peerless prodigies from the Celestial World will pale in comparison.
"If I possess you, even if I revive and return to my peak, I'll only be able to protect the five regions for 10,000 years. Then, I'll become a dispensable warrior in the Celestial World and die on the battlefield.
"In that case, I might as well leave hope to you. If you successfully mature, I'm sure those damned Evil Spirits' expressions will be very interesting!
"You have 10 extraordinary items in your body. Anyone who becomes your enemy will probably not be able to sleep well in the future."
The Golden Crow Thearch sighed softly and said, "Also, I've been fighting for 80,000 years. I'm indeed tired.
"Returning to the cycle of reincarnation and walking the path of invincibility again when I was young might bring me a new experience. I might even be able to improve further!"
Shen Tian could clearly feel that when the Golden Crow Thearch said this, it was as if a heavy burden had been lifted from his shoulders. His tone instantly became much more relaxed.
So, this crisis had ended just like that?
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader looked at Shen Tian with a gratified expression. As expected of Tian 'er, as expected of his supreme Life Providence.
Even the Thearch was ashamed of his inferiority and said that he was just a pawn in the Celestial World. Meanwhile, Tian 'er's aptitude was comparable to the peerless prodigies of the Celestial World and had the potential to become a leader of the Celestial World in the future.
How could he just have the aptitude of a Thearch? He simply had the aptitude of an Immortal King!
Yeap, in the future, I'll just say that my disciple, Shen Tian, has the aptitude of an Immortal King!
The Purple Mansion Sacred Leader's disciple's Thearch aptitude is nothing!
Hehehehehe ~
As for Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus, he was secretly satisfied. In order to hide myself, I had no choice but to miss out on many opportunities to cozy up to Martial Nephew.
Luckily, I protected Tian 'er in front of the Thearch this time and fiercely gained a good impression of him.
Hehe, in the future, there will be many fortuitous opportunities when I go out to train with Tian 'er!
...
Shen Tian looked at the Golden Crow Thearch and said seriously, "Senior Thearch, please rest assured and enter the cycle of reincarnation. When I become a Thearch, I will definitely protect the five regions and kill all enemies in the world. "
The Evil Spirits from the outer realm also want to join in the fun? Then let's fight!
Shen Tian would not allow the five regions to fall into danger. After all, there were so many cute leeches here.
If the world fell into a calamity, where would he go to freeload?
Yeap, yes!
When I become a Thearch, I will definitely protect the five regions and kill all enemies in the world!
Cough, cough.
Of course, before I become a Thearch, I still have to lay low!
After all, I'm just a weak and helpless little Golden Core now.
Even a Thearch would not be able to remain unscathed in this calamity and would be killed as a small fry.
Even if he had the ability to fight above his cultivation level and could kill a Heavenly Venerable with a Golden Core or a Sage with a Nascent Soul, he could not possibly beat up a Thearch!
Then... he should at least reach the Soul Formation stage and transcend the tribulation first!
It's never wrong to be more stable and develop wretchedly.
As for why he had made such a grand wish?
Haha, he had to let the Golden Crow Thearch see his attitude!
As a junior, he had already made such a grand wish. The Golden Crow Thearch could not possibly go back on his word and take over his body!
Who knows, he might even give me all his assets if he's so happy!
After all, the Golden Crow Thearch's nine sons had all died and were about to be sent to reincarnation. He had to find someone to inherit this huge family business!
"Very good. Little friend, I am ashamed that you have such awareness."
"I'll say this first. If someone can help my nine children transcend, this Immortal Abode Island will belong to him.
"In addition, all the Thearch artifacts and treasures that I have obtained will also belong to him. Now that you have successfully transcended them, I will not go back on my words."
The Golden Crow Thearch slowly stretched out his right hand, and a reddish-gold token flew out of his sleeve. "This is the 'Immortal Abode Island Token'. After refining the Immortal Abode Island Token, you will be able to control the island's protective array formation."
The Immortal Abode Island Token flew into Shen Tian's hand and emitted a dazzling golden light after he dripped his blood on it to acknowledge him as its owner.
Shen Tian instantly felt that he had formed a special connection with the massive Immortal Abode Island.
This connection was extremely mysterious and magical. It was as if he could control the various array formations and everything on the island with just a thought!
...
As he gently stroked the Immortal Abode Island Token, Shen Tian's eyes burned with passion.
With this token in hand, it meant that from now on, he could also be considered an Island Lord!
Build a tourist attraction, sell some ocean-view houses, fish every day, collect rent, and look at the bikini-clad ladies on the beach.
Just thinking about such a simple life makes me feel so happy!
It feels so good ~
