Inside the graveyard, Ling Xian sat in a lotus position. He was melting the heavenly materials with his True Fire and repairing the array with his array.
Although there was resistance, the Sacred Ancestor's strength was extremely weak because the Five-Elemental Fiend Sealing Art had not transformed into Fiend Enchantment. It was a threat, but it was not the greatest difficulty.
The real challenge was to stabilize the Five Elements Demon Sealing Formation.
This formation was comparable to the Immortal Trap Divine Formation. Even stabilizing it was an extremely difficult task.
Therefore, Ling Xian's expression was focused and his movements were careful. He didn't dare to be reckless.
"The safety of the universe is in his hands. It must have been hard on him."
The white-robed old man let out a long sigh. He asked himself, if it were him, he would most likely collapse under the pressure.
So did Little Zi.
The pressure was simply too great. Anyone would find it hard to endure it.
They didn't know that Ling Xian had already experienced it once.
At that time, he was also fighting alone. It was far more dangerous than this time, and the pressure was even greater!
Therefore, Ling Xian was not flustered by the mountain-like pressure. Though his movement was careful, it was as steady as a rock and unshakable.
He formed a seal and channeled qi to repair the damaged parts of the Five Elements Demon Sealing Technique.
In the beginning, there were no changes to the Five Elements Demon Sealing Formation. It was still moving towards the Demon Exorcism Formation.
However, after four hours, the changes suddenly stopped. Although there was no improvement, at the very least, it would not continue to worsen.
This made Ling Xian more energetic and he sighed in relief.
However, he still did not dare to be careless.
The Five Elements Devil Sealer had only temporarily stopped the changes. Truly stabilizing it was still an extremely difficult thing to do, and the slightest carelessness would cause all his previous efforts to be wasted.
Ling Xian inhaled deeply and continued to repair the Array of the Five Ways.
Gradually, his face turned pale, and his spirit became a little sluggish.
It couldn't be helped. The Five Elements Demon Sealing Technique was too powerful, and the Sacred Ancestor was interfering.
As time went on, Ling Xian became weaker and weaker. Not only was his face pale, but blood was dripping from the corner of his mouth.
This made Xiao Zi's expression change. She immediately moved to stop Ling Xian.
"Don't come over."
Ling Xian said weakly, "If we stop now, all our efforts will have been wasted. If we want to stabilize this array, it will be harder than climbing up to the sky."
"But …" Little Zi opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but stopped.
Even an idiot could tell how weak Ling Xian was right now. If this continued, he could die.
"No buts, don't worry, I won't die."
Ling Xian forced a smile, his face as white as paper.
He knew what Little Zi was worried about. He was also worried about himself, but did he have a choice?
When the nest was overturned, there would be no eggs left intact. Once the Divine Ancestor emerged, he would not be able to escape death even if he fled to the ends of the earth.
"You …"
Little Zi sighed and said no more. She just prayed silently in her heart.
"I never thought that my first duel with the Divine Ancestor would be under such circumstances."
Ling Xian exclaimed. He was thankful that the Five Elements Demon Sealing Spell hadn't completely transformed into the Demon Seduction Spell. Otherwise, the Divine Ancestor would've killed him with one slap.
He gritted his teeth and forced himself to stand up. With his extraordinary attainments, he repaired the Five Elements Demon Sealing Formation.
Six hours passed in the blink of an eye.
Ling Xian was extremely weak. Like a candle in the wind, he could be extinguished at any moment.
However, his efforts had paid off.
The Five Elements Demon Sealing Formation stabilized a little. In terms of time, that was ten years!
It didn't sound like much, but the value of these ten years was immeasurable!
"It's not enough. The more we fight, the more hope the universe has!"
Ling Xian made up his mind. Both of his hands moved and an infinite amount of array patterns appeared and entered the Five Elements Demon Sealing Formation.
This wasn't the same as when he was digesting the source of energy. There was no way to stop. Once he stops, it would be difficult to continue.
Therefore, he had to endure.
After another two hours, Ling Xian was coughing up blood. He was heavily injured and on the verge of fainting.
This made Little Zi's eyes turn red. The elder in white's eyes were moist as well.
The former felt heartache, the latter felt touched, and some respect.
Everyone knows that without the lips, the teeth would be interdependent. But when disaster strikes, everyone wants to protect themselves and doesn't want to sacrifice themselves.
Yet Ling Xian disregarded his own safety. Why wouldn't the elder be touched? Why wouldn't he respect him?
"Ehem, ehem, hold on a little longer. Let me hold on a little longer."
Ling Xian coughed up blood and the Five Elements Demon Sealing Formation stabilized a little more. In terms of time, that was ten years.
At this point, he couldn't hold on any longer. With a "thud", he collapsed onto the ground and fainted.
"Ling Xian!"
Little Zi was in shock. She no longer cared about anything else. After destroying the array, she hugged Ling Xian in her arms.
The elder in white dashed forward as well. Chanting an incantation, his hands began to emit light as he nurtured Ling Xian's soul.
His physical injuries weren't serious. The reason why he fainted was because his mind and spirit were exhausted.
Therefore, the elder used a secret technique to nurture his soul.
After half an hour, Ling Xian slowly regained consciousness. His face was still pale, but his spirit was better than before.
"Finally, you are awake."
Little Zi exhaled deeply and calmed down.
"Don't worry, I won't die."
Ling Xian forced a smile and shifted his gaze back to the Five Elements Demon Sealing Formation. He sighed, "Sadly, I only fought for 20 years."
"That's not easy. If it was anyone else, they wouldn't be able to do better than you."
The elder in white exclaimed, full of respect.
Whether it was his extraordinary array skills or his determination to ignore life and death, Ling Xian deserved everyone's respect!
"You are flattering me. I don't ask for my name in history, I don't ask for the world to praise me. I only ask for a clear conscience."
Ling Xian smiled. To be able to fight for 20 more years was already a blessing. At the very least, the universe has more hope.
"Now, how long can this array last?" The elder in white asked.
"Theoretically, it can last 40 years. But if something unexpected happens, then it's hard to say."
Ling Xian squinted his eyes. After all, this array was sealing the undefeatable ancestor. There was no guarantee that no accidents would happen.
"Let's leave it to fate. You and I have both tried our best." The elder chuckled and relaxed.
Ling Xian was the same.
He glanced at Little Zi and said, "Next, we will have to rely on you."
"I understand."
Little Zi nodded. The ancestor's reappearance was set in stone. Only by killing the ancestor would the universe be truly safe.
Based on the current situation, she had the highest chance of becoming an Immortal and defeating the ancestor.
"Just do your best. Don't put too much pressure on yourself."
Ling Xian smiled warmly. He then closed his eyes and used the water to nurture his soul.
Two days later, his soul recovered to its original state, and he was brimming with energy and vigor.
"This is over. It's time for me to leave."
Glancing at the peaceful array, Ling Xian looked at Little Zi and said, "I am going to the City of Holiness to train. You stay here and prepare to defeat the ancestor."
"I know. Don't worry. I will become an Immortal before the ancestor reappears!" Little Zi nodded and made up her mind.
"I believe in you."
Ling Xian smiled warmly. Without another word, he left the Ancestral Grounds.
When he reappeared, he was in the middle of the infinite universe.
Then, Ling Xian took out the Astral Boat and the Star Orbit. The former would carry him and the latter would help him locate the City of Holiness.
"That direction …"
Looking at the route shown by the Star Orbit, Ling Xian faintly smiled. Using a secret technique, he flew towards the City of Holiness at full speed.
