"Sengoku symbolizes Yun Duan, and Yun Duan symbolizes the Nine Heavens, and the Nine Heavens symbolizes the Immortal Dao. If Yun Duan is afraid of Gu Tianlang, then it means that the Immortal Dao of the Nine Heavens is afraid of Gu Tianlang. How is that possible?"
After Bing Guang finished speaking, Long Qi also said, "That's right, it's absolutely impossible. Gu Tianlang has only achieved the Immortal Demon Throne, and that was a long time ago. As far as I know, the Immortal Demon Throne that he has always been proud of is long gone. The Immortal Dao of the Nine Heavens would definitely not be afraid of him!"
Everyone else nodded in agreement. They also felt that the Immortal Dao of the Nine Heavens would not be afraid of King Chixiao.
Although King Chixiao had once overthrown Sengoku in this world, he had only overthrown Sengoku. To the Nine Heavens, Sengoku's existence was just like a sect attached to a large sect in this world. It was not even worth mentioning, let alone being a threat to the Immortal Dao of the Nine Heavens.
"I'm just saying one of the possibilities. Don't take it seriously," Elder Ghost said calmly.
The Spectral Elder said steadily, "Moreover, regardless of which possibility it is, there is one thing that is certain. Yun Duan has already sent down a decree. The Scarlet Firmament King cannot do anything."
Flowing Light Ice and Long Qi both knew that since Yun Duan had already given the order, no matter what the reason was, there was no hope for them to take revenge on the Scarlet Firmament King. Now that even Elder Ghost and Young Master Boundless had said the same thing, there was even less hope.
"Yun Duan's decree only forbids Sengoku from having conflicts with Gu Tianlang. It did not say that we are not allowed to test him."
Wang Ba, the leader of the Huwei Clan, said with a smile. The others looked at each other and understood what he meant. Then, they all looked at the Spectral Elder. The Spectral Elder did not respond. They then looked at Wu Ya as if they were asking for his opinion.
Boundless picked up a cup of fragrant tea, took a sip, and pondered for a moment. After waiting for a long time, he said, "We'll see when the time comes."
Hearing this.
Everyone was delighted. Since Young Master Wuya said so, at least it meant that he didn't object. This was already enough for Wang Ba and the others, and they more or less had some confidence in their hearts. Thus, they didn't stay for long and took their leave one after another.
After everyone had left.
Elder Ghost said meaningfully, "Young master's uneasiness in this round, is it also because of the Scarlet Firmament King?"
"Gu Tianlang is a mountain, a mountain that presses down on this world, a mountain that presses down on all of us."
"Does Young Master also want to see how high this mountain is?"
"Who doesn't?"
Elder Ghost let out a strange sigh.
"Why is Elder Ghost sighing?"
"Young Master, King Chixiao is indeed a mountain above all of you in this world, but that's all there is to it. Although he's above all of you, it doesn't mean that he's an unavoidable mountain."
"Avoid?"
Young Master Wuya shook his head and smiled. His smile was somewhat contemptuous and disdainful. A trace of arrogance flashed through his originally calm expression. He said, "Elder Ghost, do you think that I'm the kind of person who will choose to avoid difficulties when faced with them?"
"Young Master, King Chixiao is not your difficulty, nor is he your enemy. At least, not now. You don't have to think of him as an imaginary enemy, and you don't have to set up a mysterious, unknown, or even strange and terrifying enemy for yourself."
"Mysterious, unknown? Strange and terrifying? "
Young Master Wuya smiled faintly and said, "Elder Ghost, we've known each other for so long, but I've never heard you use these words to describe a person."
"Although my speculation just now was a bit exaggerated, it wasn't completely correct. I've had nothing to do these years, so I've been studying King Chixiao. I've discovered that his existence is truly an unfathomable person. Everyone says that he can succeed by relying on luck and fortune, but I don't think so. He can succeed by relying on luck and fortune, but whether it's luck or fortune, they weren't given to him by the heavens. He snatched them from the hands of the heavens himself."
Elder Ghost sighed and said, "A person who can snatch luck and fortune from the hands of the heavens is destined to be an extraordinary person."
"Elder Ghost, you're thinking too much. I've never underestimated Gu Tianlang. Not only that, but I also admire him from the bottom of my heart. It's because of this admiration that I've always wanted to see how tall this mountain that stands in this world is!"
"Young Master, King Chixiao's existence may be a mountain of unknown height in your eyes, but in my eyes, he's an ocean of unknown depth. No one knows how deep this ocean is. Many people want to know, so they all go into the ocean to test it. And then … and then … and then … those people who went into the ocean to test it never came back up …"
After saying this, Elder Ghost looked at Wuya and said solemnly and seriously, "Young Master, you should understand that some people can be tested, and some people can't be tested."
"Oh?"
Looking at Elder Ghost's solemn expression, Wuya sank into deep thought.
"There's also the most important point. Young Master, don't forget that King Chixiao was annihilated by the Immortal's Trial 300 years ago, but he didn't die. As for how he did it, I don't know, but that's not important. What's important is, where did he go in the 300 years that he disappeared? What did he do? It's still a mystery to this day. "
"300 years. To ordinary cultivators, perhaps 300 years isn't much, and they might not even be able to break through to the next realm. However, to someone like King Chixiao, the places he can go and the things he can do in 300 years are far too many. Think about it, he's only cultivated in this world for 200 years. Just his cultivation alone has been crippled and reformed nine times. He's become an immortal and fallen into the Devil's Path nine times. In other words, he's used 200 years to become a true immortal and a true devil nine times."
"I've calculated before. Excluding the period when he was young and ignorant, and excluding the period when he fought and killed, King Chixiao has spent very little time truly cultivating in the 200 years that he's been in this world. I'm afraid it won't be more than 10 years, at most 12 years."
"A person who only used 12 years to become an immortal and a devil nine times. Isn't that enough to make people revere him?"
Wuya chose to remain silent in the face of Elder Ghost's words.
Mei Ruolan, who was beside him, opened her mouth and said, "Elder Ghost, is what you said true? As far as I know, King Chixiao cultivated in our Shangqing Sect for nine years, and in the end, he only became an earth immortal. "
"I've also investigated this matter seriously. He didn't cultivate at all during those nine years in your Shangqing Sect. Instead, he was recuperating from his injuries. Moreover, he was a criminal in the Shangqing Sect back then. If he had even the slightest bit of cultivation, not only would Sengoku not tolerate him, the people of the Shangqing Sect wouldn't tolerate him either. As long as he dared to build his foundation, the people of the Shangqing Sect would kill him on the spot."
Mei Ruolan said doubtfully, "But why is it that the outside world has always said that the King cultivated in our Shangqing Sect for nine years and became an earth immortal?"
"That's because he knew his own situation. Therefore, he didn't cultivate at all during those nine years. He was recuperating from his injuries. He used nine years to recuperate from his injuries, and only used nine short days to cultivate from foundation to earth immortal. In the end, he soared into the sky and escaped the control of the Shangqing Sect!"
