"Sir, all the major forces are paying attention to you. Don't you plan to do it yourself?" Zhuo Junting asked.
Ye Xuan frowned. "There are so many ants in the world. If I have to deal with all of them myself, what use do I have for you?"
"Junting knows she was wrong!" Zhuo Junting quickly knelt on the ground. She knew she had said something wrong.
"Get up." Ye Xuan's voice was calm as he said, "You have to remember that I raised you guys to help me get rid of these ants. Unless there's an enemy that you can't resist, I won't make a move."
"Junting will remember your teachings," Zhuo Junting said gently.
…
Lianyun Mountains!
The vast mountains connected the heavens and the earth. The undulating mountain range was like a dragon entrenched in the heavens and the earth. It made people feel small when they looked at it from afar.
Ye Lingtian's clothes were tattered as he walked through the forest. His expression was one of madness and unwillingness. He followed the forest path to the peak of Lianyun Mountains.
On the peak.
There was a cold pond, a cottage, and a grave. There was nothing else.
When Ye Lingtian reached the peak, he looked around in a daze, looking for the legendary figure. However, when he saw the grave on the peak, his expression changed drastically. He quickly walked toward the grave.
There was a tombstone with the words "Dead Martial Juexian."
"Impossible, this is absolutely impossible."
Ye Lingtian growled. He could not believe that the person he admired all his life would be buried in a grave.
"I, Ye Lingtian, am not dead yet. How could Big Brother Juexian be buried in a grave?" Ye Lingtian roared hoarsely. He could not believe this.
"Big Brother Juexian, please come out and meet me." Ye Lingtian looked around and shouted loudly. His voice echoed in the void from all directions.
Unfortunately, no matter how Ye Lingtian called, there was no response from the peak of Lianyun Mountains. It was as if this was a graveyard where no living person lived.
"Big Brother Juexian, everyone will die in this world. However, I believe that you are still alive. Please come out and see me." Ye Lingtian's face was covered in tears.
"I have nothing to do with the mortal world anymore. Go back to where you came from."
Suddenly, a cold and emotionless voice came from all directions. The voice was deep and ancient, as if it had crossed the barrier of time and space and entered Ye Lingtian's ears.
"Big Brother Juexian, you're still alive!" Ye Lingtian roared with a trembling voice. He was extremely excited.
Weng!
The void swayed, and ripples spread out. A slender figure appeared high in the sky. His body was hazy and illusory, and there was an indescribable light slowly blooming around him. It gave people the feeling that the Great Dao was simple.
"There are eight sufferings in life: greed, anger and stupidity, resentment and hatred, separation from love, unattainable desires …"
"You have anger and resentment in your heart. You are trapped by your own reputation and have already fallen into the unorthodox path. Why are you doing this?" Wu Juexian sighed.
"Brother Juexian, I …" Ye Lingtian's face was pale and his body was trembling.
"I understand why you are here. However, I am no longer involved with the mortal world. The matters of the world have nothing to do with me. You may leave." Wu Juexian sat cross-legged in the void, and the sound of Martial Dao boomed in his body.
"Martial Dao Thunder, breaking the world?"
"Could it be … Could it be that Big Brother Juexian has finally broken through the shackles of heaven and earth and stepped into the Golden Core Realm?" Ye Lingtian asked in shock.
Those above the Connate Stage were called Land Immortals. They could live up to 300 years.
However, in the eyes of Ye Lingtian and the others, the Land Immortals were also called the Foundation Establishment Stage. However, they had no Spiritual Qi to absorb and could only stagnate for the rest of their lives.
Above the Foundation Establishment Stage was the Golden Core Stage. Wu Juexian had already stepped into this stage a hundred years ago. Today, a hundred years later, Wu Juexian's body was emitting Martial Dao Thunder. Could it be that his Golden Core Stage was completed?
"Golden Core Stage?"
Wu Juexian murmured. Then, he slowly shook his head and said, "You are wrong. There is no Spiritual Qi in this world. How can I truly become an Immortal Cultivator?
"However, I, Wu Juexian, have cultivated for a hundred years. Even though there is no Spiritual Qi in this world and the path to Immortality has been cut off, I have walked a path that no one has walked before. My path is to enter the Way through martial arts. I only cultivate myself and do not respect heaven and earth."
As Wu Juexian's words fell, Ye Lingtian was stunned. Only a genius like Wu Juexian could walk his own path without being bound by heaven and earth.
In this world, there was always a small group of people who were born extraordinary. They had great willpower and wisdom. They did not believe in fate and only believed in themselves. Wu Juexian was such a person.
"Big Brother Juexian, do you still remember? My martial arts cultivation was all taught by you. A hundred years ago, you were invincible. No one in this world could defeat you. However, a hundred years later, the world has forgotten your name. Are you really willing to accept this?" Ye Lingtian asked in a trembling voice. He had no intention of leaving just like that.
"The world's false reputation is nothing to me. Even that old friend of mine from the West has been hiding in the Sage Palace for a hundred years and has not come out."
"As the saying goes, no one in the mortal world is a match for me. Stepping into the mortal world for the sake of fame is not what I want," Wu Juexian said calmly.
A hairpin appeared in Ye Lingtian's hand. He tossed it to Wu Juexian. Ye Lingtian trembled and said, "Big Brother Juexian, do you still remember this hairpin?"
The hairpin was already yellowed. It was no more than an ordinary item, but it caused Wu Juexian's breathing to stop. That was because the hairpin in his hand was something he had personally given to a woman in the past. That woman was Ye Lingtian's older sister, and also his wife.
"Back then, in order to pursue the martial arts of the Tongtian, you cut off your family and your six desires. My sister died in grief. Do you still remember her?" Ye Lingtian asked in a trembling voice.
Wu Juexian's body trembled slightly, and the air around him exploded. He stared at the hairpin in his hand and then slowly closed his eyes. He said, "Ye Lingtian, are you forcing me to come out of hiding?"
"That's right, I'm forcing you, but I've never hated you, because you're the one who brought me onto this path of martial arts. You're the only family I have in this world. But I can't accept this. I can't accept being trampled under the feet of some younger generation. I want the world to know that even if I, Ye Lingtian, am defeated, my big brother, my sister's husband, is still the world's number one expert. He's the domineering Martial Juexian."
"He is also the man who dared to shout a hundred years ago that there is no road in the world, only I am Juexian."
Ye Lingtian screamed. His voice was filled with resentment and anger, and it made the air around him rumble, proving how emotional he was.
Wu Juexian sat cross-legged in the air, silently watching Ye Lingtian. He breathed in slowly and exhaled slowly. He held the hairpin tightly in his hand, and a touch of sadness flashed across his eyes.
"Xian 'er, I owe you so much in my life. Today, your brother is begging me with this hairpin. What do you want me to do?"
Wu Juexian murmured. After a dozen breaths of time, he stood up in the air and walked slowly toward Ye Lingtian. He said in a cold voice, "Ye Lingtian, since you insist on forcing me, I will fulfill your wish. But from now on, there will be no more separation between us. If you come looking for me again, there will be such a mountain."
Rumble!
Wu Juexian turned his palm into a saber. When he slashed out, a thousand-foot-long saber light tore through space and cut a mountain in half. The broken mountain fell into the valley and let out a deafening boom.
The horrifying scene left Ye Lingtian rooted to the ground, unable to regain his senses for a long time.
