The old Taoist priest was greatly moved and accepted Li Zhi as his disciple. From then on, the young man who had experienced many hardships began to embark on the path of rapid breakthroughs in cultivation.
He once broke through from the Honorable Realm to the Sage Realm within ten years, and then from the Sage Realm to the Great Sage Realm within fifty years!
The old Taoist priest was completely stunned by the explosive power of the child. He couldn't believe that he had unintentionally brought up a disciple that he was extremely proud of.
A thousand years later, more than half of the people from Splendid Village were no longer around. They had turned into graves in the West Mountain Graveyard.
However, Li Zhi had already stepped into the Grand Supreme Realm.
Three thousand years later, not a single one of the villagers from Splendid Village remained. Li Zhi had already broken through to the Grand Ancestor Realm. He had become a true existence that stood at the peak.
The billions of miles of land in the Boundless Sky had truly become a land of Splendid Mountains and Rivers.
This was Li Zhi's territory!
No celestial dared to provoke him here.
Under Li Zhi's leadership, although he was still the only Grand Ancestor in the entire Splendid Landscape, there were more than three hundred Grand Supreme cultivators and more than three thousand six hundred Progenitors. The number of cultivators below the Progenitors was even greater.
The billions of miles of Splendid Landscape was extremely prosperous.
Even the old Taoist priest who was still at the peak of the Great Sage Realm during Li Zhi's time chose to settle down here. That was because in this place, all the humans lived with great dignity.
They never invaded the territories of others, nor did they seek trouble with the celestials. They were their own masters here.
However, all of this had undergone a drastic change in recent days.
First, a large number of cultivators in the Splendid Landscape were suddenly attacked by celestials when they went out, and their heads were lopped off.
That was simply too unusual. Li Zhi immediately contacted the outside world to find out what had happened. Soon, he received feedback from the outside world. However, the feedback made Li Zhi frown.
His sources of information were limited, so he couldn't find out exactly what had happened. He only knew that something big had happened in the upper echelons of the Boundless Sky. Then, the conflict between the humans and the Celestial Tribe intensified to an irreconcilable point.
As a result, a large number of top celestial powerhouses formed hunting squads to kill all the humans living in the Boundless Sky!
He wanted to completely exterminate the humans living in the Immeasurable Heaven.
For Li Zhi, this was simply the biggest bad news.
He was very clearly aware in his heart that he was naturally one of the top-rate existences in this beautiful landscape. No, even in the entire Immeasurable Heaven, he was a true powerhouse that no cultivator dared to underestimate.
They belonged to the top group of creatures!
However, the other living beings in Silken Landscape weren't like that.
If those devas really came in, three or four devas in the Great Ancestor Realm would be enough to turn this beautiful land into a hellish battlefield!
Over the years, a large number of humans had come to seek shelter due to its fame. Currently, there were more than a hundred billion humans here!
Li Zhi was originally very confident that as long as he was given tens of thousands of years, he would definitely be able to nurture more than fifty great ancestors in Lovely Land!
At that time, Lovely Land's ability to protect itself would increase greatly.
Actually, in this world, time could be shortened even more. But he didn't dare!
He didn't dare to be too conspicuous and attract the attention of the higher-ups of the Heavenly Human Tribe. Due to the convenience of being at the border, almost no celestial beings were willing to come here, so it had always been peaceful.
But now, time waited for no man …
Recently, Li Zhi had defeated more than ten groups of people.
He even killed a devas in the Great Ancestor Realm. He knew very well that the conflict between the two sides had been completely exposed. He had killed a Great Ancestor Realm cultivator of the Heavenly Human Tribe. There was no way he would forgive him.
But there was nothing he could do. If he didn't kill them, not only would they kill him, but they would also slaughter the billions of humans in the Lovely Land!
In the process of fighting with the other party, Li Zhi himself had also suffered quite a bit of injury. But he could still hold on and fight. But he was miserable. If this continued, he would not be able to hold on any longer if one or two more devas in the Great Ancestor Realm showed up.
He didn't even dare to fall down, nor did he dare to imagine what sort of tragic scene this beautiful land would become if he fell down.
It might not be long now.
That day alone, there were five reports of villages and towns being massacred.
The cultivators that were sent as reinforcements didn't make it back alive either.
Li Zhi was infuriated by the situation, but he could only let out a sigh in the end.
At that moment, his master, who was the old Daoist Master, appeared in front of him. He looked at Li Zhi and said in a serious tone, "Li Zhi, you should leave."
"Leave? How am I supposed to leave? " Li Zhi looked at his master and said with a wry smile, "What will happen to the people in the Lovely Land after I leave?"
"Even if you don't leave, they won't be able to recover either." The old Daoist Master was very straightforward. He looked at Li Zhi and said calmly, "If you leave, you can still leave a chance for the Lovely Land. If you were to die, then there would truly be no hope left. "
"A chance of survival? What chance? Am I the only one left? What's the point of me living? "Li Zhi asked.
The old Daoist Master sighed. "I think there's something fishy about this. For a long time, our human race has never been in a good situation in the four great heavens. In the eyes of those heavens, we humans are filthy, filthy, inferior, and evil beings. But even so, as long as we stay far away and don't meet those people, there won't be many heavens who will go crazy and slaughter humans. "
Li Zhi nodded. "That's true."
"But it's different this time. This time … I can feel that they're really serious. What made them so angry? Humans like us are no threat to them at all, "the old Daoist Master said." So there's only one possibility that could make them so angry. "
"What possibility?" Li Zhi looked at the old Daoist Master.
Although he stood at the peak of all living beings, he didn't know as much as the old Daoist Master. It was said that the old Daoist Master had visited more than one percent of the Boundless Sky. He knew a lot of things.
As for Li Zhi, his range of activity was limited to the area of 10 billion kilometers around the Silken Land at most.
He hadn't gone further than that.
The old Daoist Master looked at Li Zhi. "Have you heard of Pangu?"
Li Zhi nodded. "Of course, he's the pride of all humans! He's a god. "
"Yes, I heard that Pangu led countless humans away from the four great heavens in the past. He wanted to establish the fifth heavenly realm and establish a true pure land for humans, "the old Daoist Master said.
Li Zhi nodded. "Yes, I've heard of this before. The great god Pangu was truly a great existence, but didn't he fail in the end?"
The old Daoist Master nodded. "He did fail, but did you forget what Master told you?"
Li Zhi thought about it. "Gods may fall, but they won't die?"
The old Daoist Master nodded again. "That's right. I suspect that the movement in the Boundless Sky has something to do with Pangu! It's possible that he's returned! He's started fighting the four great heavens. And if I'm not wrong, the four great heavens … must have suffered a great loss! "
"How is that possible?" Li Zhi looked at his master in shock. "The four great heavens are unimaginably powerful. Not to mention others, just the four heavens and ten thousand worlds … those realm lords alone are terrifying existences!"
"That may be so, but don't forget." The old Daoist Master looked at Li Zhi. "Pangu is a god!"
Li Zhi was so shocked that he couldn't speak.
The old Daoist Master returned to the original topic. He looked at Li Zhi and smiled. "Child, Master really didn't expect you to achieve so much. You're Master's pride, and you're also the pride of the billions of miles of land and rivers. Go, Master will stay here. If you leave, no one in the billions of miles of land and rivers will blame you. You've already done enough for them. "
"Master, I can't …" Li Zhi looked anxious.
The old Daoist Master shook his head. "Let Master finish."
Li Zhi looked at the old Daoist Master.
The old Daoist Master said, "If you leave, it might seem like you're abandoning the billions of people in the billions of miles of land and rivers, but in reality, their outcome is the same whether you leave or not. If you don't leave, you'll have to die with me. If you leave, with your strength, there aren't many people in this world who can stop you and kill you. So, you can find a place to hide. And then … wait for the right moment! "
"Wait for an opportunity?" Li Zhi looked at the old priest.
The old Daoist smiled. "Of course it's about Pangu! I believe that it will not take many years for them to really attack us. You know what? Our Boundless Heaven is the closest place to where Pan Gu's body died! "
Li Zhi's eyes widened in disbelief.
"That's why I said that you should leave and keep your useful body. In the future, you should do more for the entire human race! Do you understand? Only in this way will your existence be valuable. Even if he died in battle in the future. But your death will definitely be more meaningful than it is now! " Although the old Taoist's cultivation wasn't very high, he was quite wise and farsighted in life.
He could clearly see the situation in front of him. He didn't say those words to Li Zhi out of selfishness. He didn't want to protect his disciple. Instead, it was the most rational choice at the moment.
At this moment, Li Zhi couldn't help but fall silent.
He understood Master's intentions, but he really didn't want to leave this place!
This was his home!
