In both his past and present life, Tan Xiu was good at thinking. Furthermore, after experiencing the ways of the world on Earth, Tan Xiu's EQ had also been raised to a high level. Although he still couldn't sort out his feelings, at least it didn't affect his mood. There were other reasons for him to stay in Jingmen Island, the two islands in the boundless sea in the south.
Breeding fierce beasts.
Planting medicinal herbs.
Each of these two things was very important. As the children he nurtured grew up in the future, their strength would also grow stronger, and the cultivation resources he would need to consume would be an astronomical figure. If he were to rely solely on the wild medicinal herbs on Earth, the supply would definitely fall short of the demand.
At the window.
Tan Xiu's expression suddenly moved. He paused his thoughts and looked at the southern sea because he sensed a surging aura deliberately spreading from the south. Although the time was very short, only a few seconds, in the next moment, he instantly sprinted towards the south.
"Tan Xiu!"
Xue Yu, who also sensed the aura, chased after him on her immortal sword.
"Did you also feel it?" asked Tan Xiu. "Do you feel it familiar?"
"No." Xue Yu shook her head.
Tan Xiu sighed inwardly. Xue Yu, after all, had never experienced the brutal Immortal World. She also lacked the experience of fighting and killing between humans, immortals and demons, so her ability to identify auras was very poor. The moment he sensed the aura, he knew who it was.
The boundless sea was surging with waves.
However, a raging fire was burning on the surface of the sea.
Tan Xiu and Xue Yu flew high in the air and appeared in the deep sea tens of kilometers away. Then, they saw the Fire Qilin stepping on the surface of the sea and looking at them.
"You're here!"
The Fire Qilin didn't even glance at Xue Yu. His eyes were locked on Tan Xiu as he communicated with Tan Xiu through his divine sense.
"I knew you'd find me sooner or later, Fire Qilin, but I didn't expect you to come so fast." Tan Xiu smiled. "I'm very curious about your origin, Fire Qilin. Why did you choose to stand on the side of humans and demonic beasts? "
"You don't need to know my background, although you've already guessed a little. I need a way to leave Earth and return to the Immortal World, so I need a teleportation array. All the Monster Cores that you humans obtained from Magical Beasts belong to you. I didn't get any. Because you said you could bring me back to the Immortal World. " The flames on the Fire Qilin's body flared up, and the temperature of the surrounding sea rose as well. Around the Fire Qilin, the seawater boiled and many fish and prawns floated to the surface.
"I know you want to return to the Immortal World, Fire Qilin," said Tan Xiu indifferently. "I have a way to bring you back to the Immortal World. But now was not the time. I've told you before that I still have a lot of things that I haven't done, and my strength hasn't reached the point where I can break through to become an immortal. So, you need to wait patiently. When I go to the Immortal World, I will naturally inform you. But … "
The Fire Qilin asked, "But what?"
"You should be well aware that entering the Immortal World is a very difficult thing," said Tan Xiu indifferently. "It requires a huge amount of energy, and the process is also full of danger. Therefore, it's hard for me to trust you if you don't clearly explain your situation in the Immortal World and how you came to Earth. "
The Fire Qilin fell into silence. He knew that Tan Xiu was right, but he didn't want to mention the past to outsiders. However, in order to return to the Immortal World, he decided to reveal a bit of information to the human in front of him. "I'm the guardian immortal beast of an Immortal Sect in the Immortal World. My status is above the Azure Dragon, Vermilion Bird, White Tiger, and Black Tortoise. The founder of the Immortal Sect I belong to is a human from Earth, so he left an order before he ascended to the Gods Realm. I sensed that the planet he was born on was facing a huge crisis, so I, Azure Dragon, Vermilion Bird, White Tiger, and Black Tortoise rushed here to protect this planet. "
Tan Xiu's expression changed and he said in a deep voice, "That's just nonsense. The Azure Dragon Holy Sect, White Tiger Holy Sect, and Black Tortoise Holy Sect have disappeared from the Immortal World hundreds of thousands of years ago. The only surviving one is the Rosefinch Holy Sect, but there's no record of it in the Myriad Depository Pavilion. Don't tell me you have nothing to do with the Rosefinch Holy Sect I just mentioned. "
The Fire Qilin's aura soared again. Its millstone-sized eyes stared at Tan Xiu and even stopped communicating with his spiritual sense as he shouted, "Who the hell are you? How do you know about the Immortal World? How do you know about the Four Sacred Sects? "
Tan Xiu released his aura to resist the Fire Qilin's pressure and coldly snorted. "You may be very powerful, Fire Qilin, but I'm not afraid of you. It'll be very easy for me to kill you if I want to. Therefore, retract your aura. I don't want to cause other troubles. "
While speaking …
Tan Xiu gently raised his left hand and forced the Star Devourer Insect out of his fingers, letting it fly up and land on his shoulder.
The Fire Qilin didn't notice it at first, but when the Star Devourer Insect landed on Tan Xiu's shoulder, it cried out in horror, "Damn, damn Star Devourer Insect! How come this race hasn't died out yet?"
Tan Xiu could see the Fire Qilin's fear of the Star Devourer Insect and indifferently said, "What we're talking about now isn't about the Star Devourer Insect, right? Tell me, what's your origin? "
The Fire Qilin shook its head and roared, "Knowing too much will make you die without a burial place. I just want to return to the Immortal World and have no intention of harming you. Don't force me again, else I'll tear you to pieces even if you have this damn Star Devourer Insect to protect you. "
Tan Xiu deeply frowned. Feeling the Fire Qilin's determination, he secretly felt a bit helpless. To be honest, the Fire Qilin did arouse his curiosity. If he couldn't get what he wanted to know, he wouldn't be able to eat or sleep well for the next few days.
Suddenly …
His expression shifted and he immediately made a few gestures toward the Fire Qilin.
The Fire Qilin's eyes stared straight at Tan Xiu as he finished making those gestures. As its aura soared again, it let out a few excited roars and laughed. "A disciple of the Rosefinch Holy Sect? You're actually a disciple of the Rosefinch Holy Sect? Hahaha … I'm very happy to see a disciple of my sect. This proves that the Rosefinch Holy Sect hasn't been destroyed yet. "
"What do you mean?" asked Tan Xiu in a deep voice.
The Fire Qilin retracted its aura and moved closer to Tan Xiu. "The Five Beasts Sect was the top Immortal Cultivation Sect in the Immortal World hundreds of thousands of years ago. It was founded by Master himself. The Five Beasts Sect once shook the entire Immortal World. Its fame even spread far and wide in the Demon Realm, Monster Realm, Spirit Realm, Netherworld, and other worlds. Master, Azure Emperor, stood above hundreds of millions of races and overlooked all living beings. Some people once said that Master was not inferior to a real God. "
"Nonsense!" Tan Xiu angrily shouted. "Azure Emperor is indeed the founding ancestor of the Rosefinch Holy Sect, but it's not the Five Beasts Sect you're talking about."
The Fire Qilin shook its head. "Just listen to me and you'll naturally know the origin of the Rosefinch Holy Sect. After hundreds of thousands of years of development, the Five Beasts Sect has become the most powerful sect in the Immortal World. Even the other forces in the Immortal World are terrified of it. But before Master ascended to the God Realm, he divided the Rosefinch Holy Sect into five separate sects, namely the Qilin Holy Sect, the Azure Dragon Holy Sect, the Rosefinch Holy Sect, the White Tiger Holy Sect, and the Black Tortoise Holy Sect.
"I'm the Immortal Beast Protector of the Qilin Holy Sect. The Azure Dragon, Vermilion Bird, White Tiger, and Black Tortoise are the Immortal Beast Protectors of the other four sects. There's an old saying in Huaxia: Prosperity is followed by decline. Along with Master's ascension, the five sects lost the protection of the most powerful Supremes and eventually attracted the attention of many forces.
"Hundreds of thousands of years ago, there was an earth-shattering war in the Immortal World. Various forces attacked the Five Beasts Sect, but the sect was eventually defeated and became an ordinary Immortal Sect in the Immortal World. Because of this, the Five Sacred Sects formed by the Five Beasts Sect gradually moved to the dark.
"If I remember correctly, the Azure Dragon, the White Tiger, and the Black Tortoise all died in battle. Only I and the Vermilion Bird survived. I brought the descendants of the Azure Dragon, the White Tiger, the Black Tortoise, and the Vermilion Bird to Earth to protect his hometown. "
Tan Xiu looked at the Fire Qilin in disbelief. He never dreamed that the Rosefinch Holy Sect would have such a secret. He never thought that the Fire Qilin would protect Earth for hundreds of thousands of years.
"Fire Qilin, what about the Immortals of the other Sacred Sects? Where did they go? I've been in the Immortal World for 10,000 years, but I've never heard of the Qilin Holy Sect, the Azure Dragon Holy Sect, the White Tiger Holy Sect, and the Black Tortoise Holy Sect. "Tan Xiu took a deep breath to calm his surging emotions and asked in a deep voice.
"I don't know what happened after that." The Fire Qilin shook his head. "Ever since we came to Earth, we've been guarding this planet. Although Earth was almost destroyed several times, we finally managed to save it with our joint efforts. Unfortunately, when the Azure Dragon, the White Tiger, the Vermillion Bird, and the Black Tortoise followed me here, they were all very young and not very powerful. After hundreds of thousands of years, they all died in the end. Only I managed to survive until now. "
Tan Xiu nodded silently. Although he didn't understand most of what the Fire Qilin said, he was clear about one thing. The founder of the Rosefinch Holy Sect was called Emperor Qing.
"Go back first, Fire Qilin! I'll remember what you said. When we return to the Immortal World, I'll naturally take you to the Rosefinch Holy Sect to confirm your identity. If what you said is true, then we're on the same side, "said Tan Xiu.
The Fire Qilin thought for a while and suddenly said, "Actually, I have a way to prove what I said."
Tan Xiu narrowed his eyes and asked, "How do you prove it?"
The Fire Qilin raised his head and loudly said, "I know the name of your Rosefinch Holy Sect's Immortal Beast Protector. I don't think there are many Immortals in the Immortal World who still know her name, right? "
Tan Xiu was shaken inwardly and replied in a deep voice, "I can guarantee that only a handful of Immortals in the entire Immortal World know her name. And I'm one of them. "
