"Su Yin, the Golden Crow's Natal Flame is the foundation of the Golden Crow Saint, and he … is most likely a Master of Laws!"
Above Ruoshui River, the Phoenix Emperor looked at him worriedly.
"I know, but … do you have any other ideas?" Su Yin sighed helplessly.
The Phoenix Emperor was silent.
Only after facing the two Saints, Toad Osmanthus and Limbo, did he know what level these two forces had reached in the past ten thousand years. With his current situation, he could not rope in the Five Elements Sacred Land. Even if he had two pinnacle Rank-6 divine beasts and a half-step Rule weapon, it was impossible to fight them.
Therefore, even if he knew it was dangerous, he could only do it because … this was the only way out.
The Phoenix Emperor pondered. "Aren't you afraid that Rushou will go back on his word even if you get the Golden Crow's Natal Flame?"
Su Yin shook his head. "No! Saint Rushou is very smart. He's observing, not investing blindly. If I succeed, it means that the world's providence is with the humans and not the Firmament. He'll definitely choose a side because … the Firmament has been wanting to destroy the Five Elements Sacred Land for a long time. "
"This …" The Phoenix Emperor was speechless.
He had to admit that this young man was young, but his ability to judge the situation was much better than an old monster like him who had lived for many years.
The current situation was like a secular dynasty. The so-called neutral parties seemed to not help each other, but in reality, they benefited from both sides. The competitors would hate each other to the core. Once they were in power, they would definitely think of ways to eliminate them without mercy.
"Alright!" Knowing that the Phoenix Emperor understood, Su Yin did not dwell on this issue. "Phoenix Emperor, this trip to find the Golden Crow's Natal Flame is very dangerous. Don't go …"
This trip could be described as a narrow escape. Although the Phoenix Emperor was not weak, he was still far from being able to participate in this kind of thing.
"Alright!" The Phoenix Emperor nodded after a moment of silence.
A pinnacle Rank-5 was considered a powerhouse in the Phoenix Domain. Against a Rank-6 or even a Rule Realm powerhouse, he might not even have a chance to fight back.
"Let's wake Empress Peacock first!"
Su Yin smiled. With a thought, the Vitality Pearl appeared again.
As soon as he obtained the seed of the Phoenix Flower, he planted it in the Saint Origin Pool. However, due to the lack of time, it had only begun to sprout sparsely. It was hard to tell how long it would take for it to grow fully.
"Xiao Wu, lend me a drop of your blood!"
With a flick of his finger, a drop of essence blood flew out from Xiao Wu's body. With a light flick of his finger, it turned into tens of thousands of drops and merged with the seed.
It was a method of fertilization from the Agriculture Saint that allowed each seed to receive the most nutrients.
After doing that, Su Yin raised his eyebrows and used his finger as a sword. With a light slash, a stream of time-infused sword qi landed on the seed. The seed that had just sprouted was swept by the sword qi, and it immediately grew at a rate visible to the naked eye, blooming into a seven-colored flower that resembled a phoenix.
After comprehending a portion of the Great Dao of the Thousand Autumns, even without the help of the eternal sands of time, he could still accelerate the growth of plants.
In the past, it would have taken at least ten years or even a hundred years for it to blossom and bear fruit. However, under the effects of Zhang Xuan's sword qi, it took less than three minutes for it to mature.
With a grab of his hand, tens of thousands of flowers gathered.
Immediately after, the Great Dao of Puppetry appeared in the air, enveloping it. The power of laws surged, and the sound of forging could be heard endlessly. After an unknown period of time, a beautiful body flew out.
It was exactly the same as the sleeping Empress Peacock!
It was a puppet refined with the help of the Phoenix Flower.
Seeing that the refinement was successful, the Phoenix Emperor hurriedly stepped forward, took out a set of clothes, and put it on her.
Su Yin also took out the Empress Peacock's main body and placed the two together. With another grab, the Bridge of Helplessness appeared, spanning over the two corpses.
One was at the end of the bridge, and the other was at the end of the bridge.
"Soul, return! Choose freely. Roast the Quail Duck, Roast the Quail Duck. Fry the Quail Sparrow, Save it … "
With both hands raised, Su Yin's slightly strange voice slowly sounded.
The Phoenix Emperor looked at the bridge anxiously. Indeed, she saw a weak remnant spirit slowly walking out of Xiaoru's body and walking to the other side of the bridge.
The surface of the bridge shone with a dark light. The weak soul seemed to have been nourished, and it gradually became more solid and heavy.
The Bridge of Helplessness was a bridge made for ghosts. Even a Remnant Spirit without a consciousness would awaken here, let alone Empress Peacock.
By the time she reached the center of the bridge, her soul had already recovered. Even though she was still far from recovering her cultivation, she was no longer as weak as before.
"Darling Feng …"
Regaining her consciousness, Empress Peacock saw the Phoenix Emperor not too far away. Her eyes reddened with tenderness.
"Xiaoru, I'm sorry … Don't worry, I'll save you!" the Phoenix Emperor said with gritted teeth.
"Un! I've always believed in you … "
Empress Peacock nodded shyly. She continued forward, recovering her soul bit by bit. Soon, she arrived at the end of the bridge, and with a light sway, she dived into the puppet.
Su Yin walked up to the puppet and tapped on it. Surges of Saint Spiritual Energy and medicinal properties flowed into the puppet's body through her acupoints, nourishing her body and soul.
After some time, Su Yin heaved a sigh of relief. "Her soul has already merged perfectly with the puppet. She should be fine when she wakes up …"
He did what he promised the Phoenix Emperor. Fortunately, he did not let him down.
"Thank you …" The Phoenix Emperor was filled with gratitude.
After ten thousand years, he could finally see his beloved again and be together with her.
On this side of the bridge, the corpse on the other side could not take it anymore and turned into dust. It drifted with the wind and fell into the Ruoshui River below.
"Life is like this. Only with death can there be new life. The 36 Ancient Sages sacrificed themselves for your rebirth …"
Putting his lover away, the Phoenix Emperor sighed. "Lad, I have high hopes for you … You have to work hard and succeed. Only then will you not let down the teachers."
Su Yin did not say anything when he saw how old the Phoenix Emperor was. With a flick of his wrist, he released the Phoenix Emperor and Feng Qiqiu.
“???”
The Phoenix Emperor's lips twitched, and he reverted to his original form. The next moment, his voice came from afar. "Farewell!"
"Feng Wuyou, if you dare to save that b * tch, I'll divorce you!" The Phoenix Emperor's explosive voice rang out.
"Really?" The Phoenix Emperor's eyes lit up.
"In your dreams. Even if I divorce you, I'll kill that b * tch first and then castrate you …" The Phoenix Emperor reverted to her original form and chased after them.
Seeing her parents disappear into the horizon, Feng Qiqiu looked over awkwardly. "I can't do what you want to do with my current cultivation. I can only return to the Phoenix Domain first!"
This young man, who had been looking for Casanova's remains with her a day ago, had a cultivation far inferior to hers. Now, she could only look up to him.
"Okay!" Su Yin nodded.
"Ask Song Yu to come back when he's free … Also, come and see Jiuqu!" With that, Feng Qiqiu disappeared in a flash and sped toward the Phoenix Domain.
"What's there to see about her? She's a violent maniac! " Su Yin shook his head and stopped thinking about it. Instead, he looked at the young man not far away. "Senior Brother, you should go back first!"
"Take care!" Knowing that he would only be a burden to his junior brother, Lin Xuan turned and left without saying anything else.
After sending away all the people around him, Su Yin put Xiaowu and Dahei back into his glabella again. At the same time, he suppressed his aura, determined the direction, and flew straight to the place where the sun rose.
The Golden Crow Sacred Ground, he was coming!
…
Just as Su Yin was heading toward the east, two wretched figures emerged from a shattered space.
"Junior Brother, you're indeed blessed! I thought that we might die after suffering a great loss this time. I didn't expect that we would benefit so much from this disaster. "
The moment they appeared, the eyes of the female cultivator lit up.
"Yes!" The young man was also trembling in excitement. He reached out his left hand to touch his right hand. His right arm was powerful and emitted a powerful aura.
It was as if he could tear space apart at any moment.
Xue Qianqiu and Saint Toad Osmanthus.
After being injured by Su Yin and forced to flee, the two of them panicked and fled all the way. They originally thought that they wouldn't have the face to see their teacher again, but in the end, they accidentally entered the chaotic flow of space and entered a palace that stood towering in space.
It was hard to tell how long this palace had existed, and it drifted along with the spacetime vortex. If one couldn't find a way to enter it, even a Rule realm cultivator would find it difficult to enter.
"It's the Ancient Beast Hall!"
Unable to contain the excitement in his heart, Saint Toad Osmanthus said, "In ancient times, although the Dragon Clan was revered by all beasts, there were many ancient beasts that were as powerful as the Dragon Clan. It was just that their bloodline was too rare and their reproduction ability was too weak.
In the Ancient Era, there were countless powerful divine beasts. Putting everything aside, just the Bi 'an, Tao' an, Hun Dun, Qiongqi … Not a single one of them was weaker than the Dragon Emperor back then.
Xue Qianqiu nodded. "If you don't enter the Beast Hall, you won't know how powerful the Ancient Era was. Compared to it now, it's nothing."
"Un!"
Saint Toad Osmanthus looked at Zhang Xuan curiously. "The Beast Hall can only be entered passively. Given our current cultivation, we can only remain in it for as long as we don't get killed. Furthermore, there's a time limit as well. May I know … what benefits did you obtain after being moved there?"
Even though they had fallen into the same place, their encounters were completely different. It was impossible to know what the other party had gone through if he didn't speak of it.
Xue Qianqiu didn't intend to hide the truth. "I entered the tomb of the Ancient Xiezhi!"
"Ancient Xiezhi?"
Saint Toad Osmanthus was taken aback. His voice turned sharp as he said, "I've heard of this ancient divine beast. Its bloodline is even stronger than that of the Phoenix and Qilin. If I'm not mistaken, you forged its horn into an arm, right?"
Xue Qianqiu nodded. "That's right!"
Saint Toad Osmanthus said excitedly, "Not only is an arm forged from such a horn incomparably tough, it also harnesses the aura of valiance and righteousness. Anyone who dares to stand against you is an evil spirit. Thus, your right arm harnesses righteousness and righteousness. Even if one's cultivation is stronger than yours and one's will is more resolute than yours, they would still feel ashamed and not dare to face you."
The Ancient Xiezhi was the divine beast in charge of the laws of the Ancient Beast Hall. It represented the fairness and righteousness of the laws. Its horn was where the laws were the purest. Once one tamed it, one would be able to claim righteousness and righteousness.
Xue Qianqiu laughed heartily. "Not only so, I feel that this arm possesses the strength of a Half-Rule realm expert. Even Senior might not be able to withstand a punch from it."
Saint Toad Osmanthus replied, "Of course. The Ancient Xiezhi is a divine beast of the Ancient Era. It can discern right from wrong. Even though you have only forged a horn, it harnesses all of the power of laws within it. If not for the fact that you are unable to control it, even a grade-7 primary stage cultivator might have been able to stand against it!"
"It's that powerful?"
Xue Qianqiu was astonished.
Even though he knew that he had become extremely powerful, he still did not understand how powerful he was without a battle.
"Of course!" Saint Toad Osmanthus replied. "Of course. In the Ancient Era, there were countless beasts and countless experts. Even the Ancient Xiezhi was not considered the strongest. Unfortunately, there were too few of them. They could not withstand the Five Decay and could only disappear in the long river of history …"
Xue Qianqiu also sighed. "How is Senior Sister now? The osmanthus tree was destroyed and you were heavily injured. I wonder if you have recovered? "
"My luck is not bad. I obtained the skeleton of another divine beast!" Saint Toad Osmanthus laughed.
"Oh?" Xue Qianqiu looked at him in confusion.
"It's the Nether Fluorescent Divine Beast!" Saint Toad Osmanthus replied.
Xue Qianqiu's pupils shrank. "Extreme Yin Nether Fluorescent Divine Beast?"
This was a divine beast that was even more ancient than the Ancient Xiezhi. It was much older than the Dragon and Phoenix Races. It was born from absorbing the essence of the moon and was perfectly compatible with Senior Sister's attributes.
"Back then, when I found out about this divine beast, I hoped to refine it and successfully break through to the Realm of Law. I searched the entire Celestial Realm for many years but to no avail. I did not expect to find it like this!"
Saint Toad Osmanthus said. "After fusing this skeleton into my body, not only did my injuries heal completely, my cultivation has also completely recovered. I even have a faint feeling that I am about to break through. If nothing goes wrong, I will definitely succeed in breaking through to the Realm of Law within a hundred years!"
After suffering a great loss following Junior Brother, he thought that his strength would drop greatly and he would no longer be able to command the people in Toad Palace. He did not expect to gain a blessing in disguise. He had obtained the treasure that he had been searching for for many years. In just an hour, he had become even stronger.
"This is great …" Xue Qianqiu exclaimed. "I have also broken through the shackles of Rank Six. I am now a Saint at the peak of Rank Six."
After refining the horn of a Realm of Law elite, his cultivation had finally broken through the shackles of Rank Five and entered Rank Six. As long as he had enough time, it would not be difficult for him to break through to the Half-Step Realm of Law!
If he met Su Yin again, he would definitely be able to kill him easily!
"Yes!" Saint Toad Osmanthus said with a look of pity in his eyes, "It is a pity that the Ancient Beast Court is concealed by a great power and cannot enter the tombs of other ancient beasts. Otherwise, if we find a few more treasures, we might be able to break through to the Realm of Law and become a true pinnacle expert.
"It is already a great opportunity to be able to enter once. However, it does not matter. As long as we completely refine the Xie Zhi and Wraith Beasts, we should be able to sense the entrance. At most, we will think of a way to enter again!"
Xue Qianqiu laughed.
Although he had only refined one treasure before being thrown out by the Beast Court, as his cultivation increased, he might be able to find a way to enter again.
"That is true …" Saint Toad Osmanthus replied. He looked at the young man in front of him again with admiration in his eyes. "What do we do now? Should we go back and kill that Su Yin? "
"We have been delayed in the Beast Court for so long. He must have entered the Five Elements Sacred Land. Rushou and Gonggong's attitude is unclear. If we go there recklessly, I am afraid that we will be at a disadvantage!"
After a moment of contemplation, Xue Qianqiu shook his head.
Even though the two of them had improved significantly, the Five Elements Sage was still stronger than them. Even their teacher would have to be wary of the five of them. It was impossible for them to go there just like that!
They had to make preparations in advance.
"Then …" Saint Toad Osmanthus frowned.
"How about this? Let's look for Senior Golden Crow! He is a true Rule realm expert, so it shouldn't be a problem for him to persuade the Five Elements Sage to surrender. If he fails to do so, we'll think of something else. "
A glint flashed across Xue Qianqiu's eyes as he spoke.
As the youngest disciple of the Firmament Sword Saint, there was no doubt that he was wise. From the looks of it, looking for Senior Golden Crow was the best solution.
After a moment of contemplation, Saint Toad Osmanthus nodded in agreement.
Compared to Senior Golden Crow, they were indeed a little weaker.
With Senior Golden Crow making a move, even if the Five Elements Sage wanted to form an alliance with the human race, he would have to think twice before doing so.
If he succeeded, not only would he be able to win over the Five Elements Sage, he would also be able to kill the young man who had snatched his osmanthus tree.
"Let's go!"
After finishing their discussion, the two of them tore through space and headed straight for the Golden Crow Sacred Land.
…
"Teacher, will I be able to become a Rule realm expert just by assimilating the thirty-six skeletons?"
Su Yin asked Yang Xuan as they traveled through the spatial passageway.
He knew very little about the Rule realm. If not for the coincidental breakthrough of the Origin Energy Orb, he would not have known about the rules within it.
Previously, he had been busy, so he did not have the time to ask about it. However, now that he had the time, he decided to clarify things first.
"You can't!"
Yang Xuan shook his head. "You have to comprehend a specific set of laws and bestow a new attribute to it. It's just like how the Martial Sage Great Path is bestow a new meaning upon it and divide it into many different categories. Only then will you be able to stand above it. "
"A new attribute?" Su Yin frowned. Where in the world could he find one?
"It's simply too difficult to achieve a breakthrough in this realm. Back then, we didn't even succeed … It's probably due to luck that the Martial Sage Great Path was able to do so," Yang Xuan shook his head.
It was not that he was looking down on the other party.
In terms of talent, Li Qiaofu was superior to him. It was just a pity that he had fallen early. Otherwise, he would not have been a Sword Saint but an overlord of swordsmanship.
"Luck? How can there be so much luck? "Su Yin smiled bitterly.
Seeing Zhang Xuan's expression, Yang Xuan explained, "Actually, the Fused Great Path that you have comprehended is a brand new set of laws. It can be defined as the Law of the Human Emperor!"
Su Yin was stunned. "The Law of the Human Emperor?"
Yang Xuan nodded. "That's right. The Great Path that we have imparted to you represents the basic needs of a human's survival. Naturally, it's a specific set of laws that we don't understand. However, once you understand it and define it, you should be able to push for a breakthrough to become an overlord …"
"Attribute?" Su Yin was taken aback. He tried to recall the uniqueness of the Fused Great Path, and a thought suddenly flashed across his mind. "Could it be … Courage, Benevolence, Wisdom, and Magnanimity?"
When he executed the Human Emperor Swordsmanship, he could feel the selflessness and fairness that it harnessed!
Could it be that this was the key to transcending the Rule realm?
"Courage? Benevolence? "
Yang Xuan was stunned for a moment before realization dawned on him. "Yes, it's very possible! Back then, when I imparted the cultivation method to the human race, I didn't think of returning the favor. I only wanted to make the human race live a better life. The Agriculture Saint and the others did the same. Perhaps this is the true essence of the Human Emperor's Great Path, and the power of laws that we have comprehended is only supplementary … "
Su Yin was stunned.
This feeling was something that he had sensed after fusing more than ten Great Paths. It was like power, but also like responsibility.
"What is courage? What is benevolence? "He couldn't help but ask.
In terms of courage, he had it. In terms of benevolence, he also had it. Otherwise, he wouldn't have worked so hard after leaving the forbidden area.
However, he had a feeling that the courage and benevolence in the Human Emperor's Great Path were definitely not these.
"I don't really understand either!" Yang Xuan frowned.
"I know what it is!" At this moment, the voice of the Warlock Saint Han Fei sounded.
Su Yin hurriedly looked over.
"It's cohesion!"
Han Fei said, "Human Emperor, the emperor of the human race. If you want to transcend with this Great Path, not only do you have to think for the human race, but you also have to have the belief and perseverance to make the human race a dragon. To do this, the first thing you have to do is to win the hearts of the people. Only when all the human race acknowledges you can you have the so-called benevolence, courage, wisdom, and greatness! "
"Oh!"
Su Yin was enlightened. "This … is very difficult to do!"
It was easy to get the approval of one or two people, but to get the approval of countless people … How was it possible?
He wasn't money!
"Actually, it's not difficult!" Han Fei said with a smile, "The survival of the human race can be guaranteed, and basic needs such as clothing, food, shelter, and transportation can also be satisfied. What's more, naturally, is fairness and justice. As long as you treat everyone equally under your command and don't favor one over the other, you will naturally gain the approval and respect of everyone."
"Fairness? Justice? "
Su Yin was helpless. "How do you comprehend this?"
"It's indeed difficult! Back then, I became a Saint because I wanted to change the thinking of the human race. Unfortunately, I didn't succeed in the end. However … "
Han Fei paused for a moment and thought of something. "It's not impossible. Legend has it that in ancient times, there was a divine beast called Xiezhi. Its single horn can distinguish right from wrong. If you can find it and find a way to refine it, your understanding of the Human Emperor's Great Dao will definitely reach a higher level, and you will have a greater reliance when you break through the Rule Realm!"
"Xiezhi?"
Su Yin said, "This divine beast has been extinct since ancient times. Where can I find it …"
"Uh, yes, this ancient divine beast has disappeared in the long river of history. Even we couldn't find it back then, let alone you …"
Han Fei was helpless. Only then did he realize that he was dreaming.
Swoosh!
While they were talking, Su Yin had already passed through the space channel. Then, a majestic mountain appeared in front of him.
It pierced into the clouds and was so high that he couldn't see the end of it. It perfectly connected the heaven and the earth. Instead of a mountain, it was more like a huge bridge.
"This is Mount Buzhou?" Su Yin's face was filled with shock.
Although he had heard that this place was where the Firmament Saint lived, he was still shocked when he saw it with his own eyes.
It was simply too huge. The mountain ranges that he had seen in the past paled in comparison to it. Even the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains that he had undergone his tribulation in the past paled in comparison.
And the Firmament Saint lived in another world at the top. It was said that there were as many as 33 layers.
"After Mount Buzhou was broken by Gonggong, its connection to the sky was broken. The 33 Heavens built by the Firmament Saint are just fake heavens!"
Yang Xuan shook his head.
"Fake heavens?" Su Yin was speechless.
It was so tall that he couldn't see the end of it with the naked eye. He dared not imagine what kind of era it was in ancient times.
How hard did the human race struggle to achieve today's achievements and truly stand at the top of the world?
Yang Xuan said, "The Golden Crow Holy Land is in the sea east of Mount Buzhou. If you want to go there, you can't go around this area. You have to think of a way in advance. Otherwise, I'm afraid that the Firmament Saint will notice and kill me before I get there!"
The Mount Buzhou Holy Land and the Golden Crow Holy Land were two different places, but … if one wanted to go to the latter, one had to pass through the former.
This was also why it was so difficult to obtain the Golden Crow Lifebound Flame. Even Zhurong, Rushou, and the others found it difficult to do so.
"Un!"
Su Yin frowned.
His teacher was right. Given his current strength, even if he could suppress his cultivation and conceal it from the Firmament Saint, it would be impossible for him to fool the Firmament Saint.
This area had long been built into the Firmament Saint's personal territory. Putting aside cultivators, even a mosquito would be noticed.
"Since I can't hide it from him, I'll just have to let him know …"
An idea popped up in Yang Xuan's mind.
Hu!
With a flick of his wrist, a brush appeared in his hand. Following which, his bones crackled, and he changed his appearance.
"You want to disguise yourself as Xue Qianqiu?" Yang Xuan was stunned.
"That's right. Xue Qianqiu is his disciple. Only by disguising myself as him can I pass through without being noticed. Otherwise, anyone else would have noticed!"
Su Yin explained as he used the brush to refine his face.
Ordinary cultivators, even experts like Saint Toad Laurel, would be able to disguise themselves easily. However, Firmament Saint would definitely not be able to do so. He would have to rely on the power of the Painting Path.
Soon, he looked identical to Xue Qianqiu. Even Yang Xuan was unable to notice anything amiss.
"Dahei, turn into the patterns!" Su Yin was still worried.
"Alright!"
Dahei flew out.
At its level of cultivation, it was easy for it to change its appearance.
Boom!
As the patterns appeared, Su Yin immediately felt his right arm harnessing immense power. It was similar to when he borrowed the Origin Energy Pearl, reaching the pinnacle of grade-6.
After which, he took out a sword from his storage ring and refined it.
This was a sword that he had snatched from Xue Qianqiu. Even though its grade was far inferior to the True Dragon Sword, it was much better at concealing his identity.
"Let's go!"
After making all the necessary preparations, Su Yin hid the Origin Energy Pearl, Heaven Measuring Ruler, and other treasures. Then, he stepped on the sword and flew straight toward Mount Buzhou.
Sword Qi surged and streaks of time energy emanated from the sword. Wherever it passed, plants grew and withered rapidly. Flowers bloomed and withered. It was as if a few years had passed in the blink of an eye.
Whoosh!
In a few breaths' time, Su Yin arrived at the sacred grounds of Mount Buzhou. As soon as he entered, there was a flash of light and the space shook. Two figures appeared in front of him.
It was a man and a woman. Both of them looked like middle-aged men in their forties. Their auras were as deep as the sea, unfathomable.
"Pinnacle of grade-6 …" Su Yin's eyes narrowed.
He could clearly feel that their strength had reached the pinnacle of grade-6. They were not any weaker than Xiao Wu and the other beasts.
As expected of the Firmament Sect. None of them could be underestimated.
"It's Yu Luo and Sky Palace … If I'm not mistaken, they were only at the pinnacle of grade-5 previously. Firmament must have used a secret technique to help them advance! Furthermore, it hasn't been too long since they advanced, which is why they are unable to control their strength, "Yang Xuan's voice sounded in Zhang Xuan's head.
"Un!"
Su Yin nodded.
He could tell as well.
It was likely that the two of them had just made a breakthrough. Otherwise, given how well they retracted their energies, he would not have been able to ascertain their cultivation so quickly.
Even though Zhang Xuan was chatting with Yang Xuan in his mind, he did not hesitate to step forward and clasp his fist. "Qianqiu pays respect to Senior Tian Gong and Senior Yu Luo!"
"Junior, you're back. How did it go? Did you complete the mission that teacher assigned to you? "
The Celestial Palace Master asked curiously, not suspecting anything.
"This …"
Su Yin's face reddened slightly as he replied, "I met Saint Helplessness and Su Yin as soon as I arrived at the Five Elements Sacred Ground, and we fought … Let's not talk about that for now. I intend to head to the Golden Crow Sacred Ground to seek Senior Tian Gong's help!"
He had no idea what the mission that Firmament had assigned to Xue Qianqiu was, but he was certain that it had something to do with the Five Elements Sacred Ground. Thus, he purposely made up a story to change the topic.
As expected, upon seeing Zhang Xuan's expression, Tian Gong guessed that Zhang Xuan might have suffered yet another loss. Thus, he did not pursue the matter. Instead, he smiled and said, "There's no need for you to head to the Golden Crow Sacred Ground to look for Senior Tian Gong. After teacher refined the Qilin arm for you, he went to the Thirty-Three Skies together with him.
"Ah …" Su Yin's lips twitched.
His goal was to steal the Lifeflame, not the Golden Crow Sacred Ground or Firmament. If he were to head to the Thirty-Three Skies together with the Golden Crow Sacred Ground, he would definitely be exposed.
"Thank you, Senior Tian Gong. However, I've failed to complete the mission that teacher assigned to me, so I'm too embarrassed to head to the Thirty-Three Skies. Let's head to the Golden Crow Sacred Ground directly.
I'll be able to alleviate the awkwardness of the situation, "Su Yin said awkwardly as he scratched his head.
"This …" Seeing Zhang Xuan's expression, Tian Gong and Yu Luo came to a realization. They chuckled and said, "There's no need to be so courteous with one another. Did Junior Tian Gong encounter some trouble? Do you need our help? "
"There's no need to trouble the two of you. No matter how difficult it is, I hope that I'll be able to complete it myself! I won't let down teacher's trust and nurture … "
Su Yin said.
"You're right. We were too reckless …"
Seeing that Zhang Xuan was unwilling to speak any further, Tian Gong did not pursue the matter any further. Instead, he turned around and said, "This way, please!"
"Thank you!"
Su Yin heaved a sigh of relief. Then, he rode on his sword and flew toward the east.
Shortly after, Tian Gong's voice sounded once more. "Junior Tian Gong, please wait a moment!"
"Oh?"
Su Yin looked at Tian Gong in confusion.
"It's nothing!" Yu Luo said with a smile. "It's just that I've just made a breakthrough, so I wanted to test my cultivation. Since I've met Junior Tian Gong here, I wonder … if it's convenient for me to spar with you? I'd like to see just what kind of power the Thousand Autumns Great Path contains. "
"This …"
Su Yin's eyes narrowed.
Could it be that his disguise had been exposed?
