"Could it be … the mysterious being?"
Ling Xian mumbled to himself. Remembering the hell the mysterious being talked about, his heart couldn't help but drop.
Honestly speaking, he didn't know what level the mysterious being was at. But he knew that this person must be extremely powerful. Even though every time they meet, the mysterious being loses, don't forget, it was merely a projection.
A projection that wasn't even a clone had the power of a sixth level cultivator. Just how powerful was the real body?
Ling Xian didn't know. He wasn't sure if the merging of the two realms was the work of the mysterious being. But he knew very well that his guess was correct.
The person behind the scenes must have done this on purpose. The short term goal was to suppress the Realm of Immortality. The long term goal was to end all hope.
Though right now, the Taoism community was full of life and prosperity, how could there be hope in a world where powerhouses cannot exist?
Therefore, Ling Xian frowned and felt troubled.
Or in other words, helpless.
Yes, he was a demon. Yes, he was on the path to becoming the strongest in history. But right now, he was merely a sixth level cultivator and could not change the overall situation.
But the situation before him may have escalated to the peak and he was helpless.
"It appears to be full of life and hope, but in reality, it has fallen into the abyss of despair."
Ling Xian softly sighed. He knew that the Taoism community was in a state of celebration right now. Even the lowest leveled cultivators were ecstatic.
Because in everyone's eyes, hope had arrived. In the future, the Taoism community will for sure welcome a bright era.
This was without a doubt. But it was also foreseeable that after the bright era, there will be decline and even despair.
Sadly, only Ling Xian saw this coming.
Everyone was immersed in the beautiful future and didn't realize the strangeness of the situation. But he knew the cruelty of the truth.
Without a doubt, the Realm of Immortality has been poisoned. All cultivators who have merged with the heavens have lost the right to ascend to immortality.
This meant that once the unknown enemy makes a move, all the different kinds in the world will not even have the ability to fight back. How cruel was this?
"I can only pray that my guess is wrong. That there is no enemy, or that the enemy won't make a move anytime soon." Ling Xian softly sighed and didn't want to think about this anymore.
In any case, he had no clue, let alone the ability.
He believed that there must be many powerful figures in the Immortal World who had the same thoughts as him about the integration of the two realms. Since that was the case, he would let them worry about it.
With his current cultivation, he really did not have the ability to meddle in this matter.
"The barrier has been broken, and the two realms have merged. This has saved me a lot of trouble."
Ling Xian softly grinned. He originally planned on crushing the black stone and asking the elder to descend the spatial array. Now, it seemed that there was no need for that at all.
All he had to do was bring Su Zi across the border.
"The road ahead is destined to be incomparably difficult. I have to seize the time to increase my strength."
Staring at the undying Sun, Ling Xian mumbled to himself with urgency.
He could foresee the cruelty of this world. Only by increasing his own strength could he hold on to his life in the abyss of despair and protect the people he cared about.
Therefore, he decided to return to the Immortal Realm as soon as possible to increase his strength.
After that, he returned to the backyard and gathered with Feng Jiu Ge and the others for five days. Then, he planned to head to the Immortal Realm.
Just then, he received a message from Dao Wu Ji.
The content was only one sentence: The sect is in trouble, return quickly.
"Trouble?"
Ling Xian was a little startled. Ever since he was worshipped, the entire Taoism community has learned of his relationship with the Wan Jian House. Who would be stupid enough to provoke the Wan Jian House?
Even though the two realms merged and erupted, his influence was still there. Nobody would dare to make a move against the Wan Jian House.
The only possibility was the forces from the Immortal Realm.
For one, the two realms merged and the Immortal Realm was at a disadvantage. It was inevitable for them to complain about the Taoism community. For two, the Taoism community was vast and boundless with abundant resources.
Though the natural laws of the Taoism community were severely damaged, it only affected the cultivation of living beings. It didn't have much of an impact on the natural resources.
This meant the Taoism community was a fat piece of meat. Especially to the forces from the Immortal Realm, it was a great piece of land.
Therefore, the invasion of the Immortal Realm was reasonable.
"It can only be the forces from the Immortal Realm. I cannot believe they came so fast."
Ling Xian softly sighed. When the two realms were connected, he had a premonition that this day would come. He just didn't think it would come so fast.
Then, he called up Su Zi and they headed to the Wan Jian House.
Along the way, the scenery he saw also confirmed his guess.
The Taoism community was in flames of war. Weapons were everywhere. The forces from the Immortal Realm had invaded the Taoism community.
At once, the flames of war never stopped and the battles never stopped. The entire Taoism community had turned into a battlefield.
This made Ling Xian shake his head and sigh helplessly.
To the forces from the Immortal Realm, the Taoism community was a fat piece of meat delivered to their mouths. Not only were they rich in resources, but they were also weak in capabilities. There was no better target to take over.
Therefore, after a few days of peace, the war suddenly erupted.
On Ling Xian's journey, everywhere he went, there were flames of war and rivers of blood. This made him sigh.
He understood what the forces from the Immortal Realm were doing, but he didn't agree with them. Especially in this strange situation.
An unknown enemy was hiding in the dark and could attack the two realms at any time. Yet at this time, the two realms were fighting each other. Why wouldn't he sigh?
"They only care about the benefits in front of them. They are a group of idiots who can't see the bigger picture."
Ling Xian shook his head and sighed. He was disappointed that they didn't live up to his expectations. However, there was nothing he could do about this. It wasn't like he could stop all the forces from the Immortal Realm by himself, right?
That wasn't realistic.
Therefore, Ling Xian could only ignore them and rush to the Wan Jian House.
Ten days later, he finally arrived at the Wan Jian House, which was in the middle of a war. What made him feel lucky was that though the Wan Jian House was damaged in many places, it wasn't at the end of the line.
There weren't many casualties either.
Other than feeling lucky, he also felt strange. Because the invading force was the Feng Clan, a force he hated.
Back then, Ling Xian won the title of the strongest of the younger generation. He could've gone to the Immortal Realm right away. But because he defeated Feng Lie, he wasn't allowed to go to the Immortal Realm.
Naturally, he couldn't tolerate this. He killed Feng Lie right there and then, thus, he became the Feng Clan's enemy.
Now that they had met again, he was going to settle old and new grudges.
Coincidentally, the leaders of the Feng Clan's troops were the middle-aged man and the elder from back then.
After so many years, these two have reached the peak of the Path of Choosing Path. This was quite an achievement. However, compared to Ling Xian, they were in a very ugly state.
Therefore, when they saw Ling Xian and felt his cultivation level, the two of them fell into a state of extreme shock.
