"Chen Xingzi, do you think you can struggle free of my seal? Dream on! You haven't cultivated to the level of a creator. If you were, I really wouldn't be able to do anything to you. What do you mean by the slightest mistake? I think you still don't understand, so I'll wake you up today. "
A streak of light traversed through the void turbulence.
It was Hong Yi who'd used a trigram to escape from the North Sea.
He'd divined the Earthwater Army's whereabouts and returned to the North Sea. Not only had he foiled Young Master Xu's scheme, but he'd also used the explosion of the Ancestral God Lightning Pool to refine the Eternal Monument. More importantly, he'd used Young Master Xu's chance to sneak into Sacred Ancestor Mountain and seal Chen Xingzi! He'd captured a dao ancestor alive.
If Young Master Xu hadn't yelled about opening Sacred Ancestor Mountain, Hong Yi wouldn't have been able to sneak in and create a diversion.
Sacred Ancestor Mountain's defenses were now fully activated, with hundreds of thousands of formations stacked on top of one another. There was no way he could break in unless he used brute force.
In truth, Hong Yi entering Sacred Ancestor Mountain was an extremely risky move. However, nothing ventured, nothing gained. Finally, he had succeeded by relying on the ingenious use of the Hexagram Evasion, the Spiritual Tempest, and the Spiritual Projection.
Chen Xingzi's capture was a huge blow to Yun Yunzi and Yinzi.
As long as the three Dao Ancestors didn't team up, even if Yun Yunzi and Yun Yunzi became Creators in the future, they wouldn't be that hard to deal with. Moreover, the severe blow they received this time would definitely leave a terrifying shadow in their hearts. During the lightning tribulation, they would have to be constantly on guard against Hong Yi's sneak attacks. This would definitely be a huge psychological factor when it came to transcending the lightning tribulation.
If they went through the tribulation with this shadow in their hearts, they would have a higher chance of being struck to death.
"Hong Yi! You want to refine me? Don't even think about it! "
Chen Xingzi, who was enveloped by the Paramita Bridge, let out a shrill roar. He kept channeling his magic power, but he still couldn't break through the powerful intent of the golden bridge.
Even Heavenly Father's golden immortal essence spirit couldn't block the bridge's all-out attack, let alone Chen Xingzi.
"Now that you're in my Sacred Hall and away from Sacred Ancestor Mountain, what other source of power do you have?" Hong Yi ignored him.
What are you going to do to me? "
Suddenly, Chen Xingzi calmed down. His magic power no longer fluctuated, as if he was preparing something.
"It's nothing. It hasn't been easy for you to cultivate for so many years. I won't refine your soul, nor will I kill you. Instead, I will seal your memories and supernatural power and allow you to be reincarnated. Then, I will throw you into my Book of Changes Academy to turn over a new leaf and achieve the right outcome. Hong Yi did not change his original intentions. "This is your only choice, or rather, you don't have a choice at all. Now that you've been sealed by me, it'll be hard for you to die even if you want to. Don't waste your energy. The Ancestral God Lightning Pool also exploded. What do you think? "
He sensed that Chen Xingzi seemed to be exuding an aura of mutual destruction. However, Hong Yi's words dispelled his thoughts, causing the circulation of his soul to slow down.
Indeed, even the explosion of the Ancestral God Lightning Pool couldn't do anything to Hong Yi, let alone the self-destruction of someone who wasn't even a creator.
However, even if Chen Xingzi wanted to self-destruct, Hong Yi had the ability to stop him. He could use his space-time power to freeze his thoughts, or use a spiritual storm to mess up his thoughts.
In short, if one was not a Creator, after being imprisoned in the All Saints Palace by Hong Yi, it would be difficult for them to die even if they wanted to. They could neither live nor die even if they wanted to. If the Sacred Hall didn't have this effect, how could it be called the king of the three divine weapons?
"Hmph! Do you think your plan will work? Impossible! "
Although Chen Xingzi had given up on self-destructing, the true qi around him vibrated majestically, battering against the seal like a flood.
While Chen Xingzi was battering against the seal, Hong Yi had already returned to the Zhouyi Academy in Yujing City.
The other two great Dao Ancestors, young master Xu, and the Wildness God didn't chase after him. In fact, no one in the world could catch up to Hong Yi's Escape Trigram, apart from the Yang God.
Hong Yi was so ferocious that young master Xu didn't dare to chase after him. Otherwise, he would be dead meat.
Above the North Sea, young master Xu, Yin Yunzi, and Lian Yunzi indeed didn't chase after him.
Although Sacred Ancestor Mountain was powerful, it hadn't condensed a lightning pool. Although its defenses were strong, it was like a turtle's shell. It was very heavy and difficult to move, so it couldn't catch up to Hong Yi.
Without Sacred Ancestor Mountain, even if they caught up to Hong Yi, it would be a joke.
Both Yin Yunzi and Lian Yunzi were well aware of this. However, the hearts of the two great Dao Ancestors were in turmoil. There was no other reason than the fox mourning the death of the rabbit.
"If I hadn't opened the door, Chen Xingzi wouldn't have fallen for such a vicious trick." Yin Yunzi was resentful as she pointed at young master Xu.
At this time, young master Xu had also brought the Wildness God to the core of Sacred Ancestor Mountain to meet with Lian Yunzi and Yin Yunzi.
"Hong Yi's dao techniques are too powerful, and his magic treasures are amazing. I didn't expect such a big mess to happen." Young master Xu's face was very gloomy. After hearing Yin Yunzi's words, it became even more gloomy.
"However, I calculated that Hong Yi will likely seal Dao Ancestor Chen Xing's memories and powers, then reincarnate and take him in as a disciple. Given Hong Yi's current dao techniques, refining Patriarch Chen Xing won't do him much good. "Young master Xu had also heard the conversation between Hong Yi and the three great Dao Ancestors. How could he not understand? "So we still have a chance. Hong Yi is playing with fire."
"However, I did cause some trouble this time. If it wasn't for me, Patriarch Chen Xing wouldn't have been killed. In order to make up for it, I am willing to contribute a few magic treasures to help the two Dao Ancestors refine the Lightning Pool! I will also help the two Dao Ancestors overcome the Lightning Tribulations and become Creators! " Young master Xu thought for a while and sighed. "I have never been defeated in my life, but I never expected to suffer so many losses when I came to the Vast Thousand Domains!"
"Oh? So Young Master Xu isn't from the Vast Thousand Domains? " Yin Yunzi's eyes flickered when she heard Young Master Xu's words. She already knew that there was no expert like Young Master Xu in the Vast Thousand Domains. The power of the Wildness God puppet was unheard of.
The three Dao Patriarchs weren't pig-brained. Young Master Xu's attempt to conceal his identity couldn't fool them, much less Tang Hailong and the others. Young Master Xu was very clear about this, so he didn't hide it anymore.
"I am from the Central World of the Heavens beyond Heaven. However, why am I here? Dao Ancestors, Brother Hailong, Brother Fangyuan, Brother Fei Yu, you don't have to ask too much. Everyone has their own secrets. However, I can tell you clearly that we are on the same page when it comes to Hong Yi's interests! Moreover, I will never plot against you. I, Young Master Xu, have been unstoppable all my life. My words are worth a thousand gold. " Young Master Xu caressed the black jade ruyi in his hand and spoke in a powerful and convincing voice.
"Young Master Xu is right. However, if you help us condense the lightning pool and help us overcome the Lightning Tribulations, what do you want?" Yin Yunzi asked.
"What I want is naturally to form an alliance with you and take back one of Hong Yi's magic treasures. This magical treasure is called the Immortal Monument! It is the key magical treasure for the Central World of the Heavens beyond Heaven to enter the Vast Thousand Domains on a large scale. It is also an unparalleled magical treasure refined by the first person of the Primordial Era, Emperor Chang Sheng, to seal the five Godly Kings … "
Young Master Xu explained the situation of the Immortal Monument word by word.
"I see! There's such a secret? " Tang Hailong, Fangyuan, Li Feiyu, Yin Yunzi, and even Yun Zi were shocked. At the same time, their trust in Young Master Xu increased.
"Therefore, the Central World of the Heavens beyond Heaven's entry into the Vast Thousand Domains is a fundamental plan. It was also calculated by the ancient Emperor Chang Sheng and Pan Huang. There's no way to stop it. You can choose which path you want to take. " Young Master Xu explained. "I, Young Master Xu, am an honest man. Even if you don't want to go with us, I will still help you refine the lightning pool and help you overcome the Lightning Tribulations. Brother Feiyu, Brother Hailong, Brother Fangyuan, I will share some of my cultivation experiences with you. I will help you reach the sixth Lightning Tribulation realm in one fell swoop. I will also teach you some of the mysteries of condensing acupoints!
"I hope you won't doubt me when I treat you with sincerity!
"As long as you can refine the lightning pool and help us become Creators, there won't be any problems. We will be friends for life and death. Moreover, we have a large number of survivors in the Nine Abyss Divine Realm. After we refine the lightning pool, we can use the Ancestral Mountain to bring over ten million people and build a huge country. "
Yin Yunzi and Lianyunzi were convinced by Young Master Xu's sincerity.
"Hong Yi actually obtained an Immortal Monument. I'm afraid there's going to be a change in the situation." Only Tang Hailong thought to himself, "Hong Yi, you actually kidnapped my master. From now on, you and I will not live under the same sky."
"Hailong, now that your master has been murdered, the Path of Stars is without a leader. You have to take on the responsibility and manage ten million people in the future. Of course, Fangyuan and Li Feiyu can help you too. With the three of you in charge, our strength will increase countless times. "
"The two Dao Ancestors have accumulated enough. They will only be weakened after the Lightning Tribulations. I will refine a few golden pills first. If there's a chance, they will help you overcome this period, "Young Master Xu said.
"We have the recipe of the Tribulation Crossing Golden Pill left behind by the ancient Emperor Chang Sheng. There used to be three pills, but we consumed them during the Lightning Tribulations. It's difficult to refine them now," Li Feiyu suddenly said.
"Hmm? That's great. However, the Tribulation Crossing Golden Pill is useless against a Creator-level Lightning Tribulation. It's only useful for you guys. " Young Master Xu said, "Let's set a time and cultivate for a while. On the fifth of May next year, we'll go straight to the Barren Land to undergo the Lightning Tribulations. There are about six months left now. It's enough time to condense the lightning pool! "
"Alright, let's set it to be next year, the fifth of May!"
After the discussion, the enormous Sacred Ancestor Mountain sank to the bottom of the sea again.
Although they had lost Chen Xingzi, they still felt that their strength had increased once again with Young Master Xu's full support. This was especially true for Tang Hailong, Li Feiyu, and Fangyuan. They did not expect Young Master Xu to be willing to make such a huge sacrifice in order to resist Hong Yi. He even imparted to them a large number of acupoint condensation methods and even his own cultivation experience.
"I didn't expect this to be a blessing in disguise. Hong Yi, when we cultivate to the sixth Lightning Tribulations, we'll try our best to become a Creator. Once all three of us become Creators, we'll turn your life from a comedy to a tragedy!"
Fangyuan, Tang Hailong, and Li Feiyu looked at each other. They knew what each other was thinking.
"Young Master Xu and the others did not chase after me, nor would they dare to. But this Young Master Xu is full of tricks. Let me divine again to see what they're up to. "
Back at the Zhouyi Academy, Hong Yi did not rush to seal Dao Ancestor Chen Xing. Instead, he divined with the Book of Changes.
With a thought, two thoughts overlapped. One was the sky, the other was the mountain. It turned out to be the sky in the mountain, the divination of the animal!
"The sky in the mountain, the animal. A gentleman acts according to his knowledge, the animal's virtue. This is their cultivation, and it's a big cultivation. They won't do anything for now. Young Master Xu will be fine for a few months. "
Hong Yi knew what was going on. Then, he divined another divination. It turned out that the earth was above and the wind was below. "Wood grows from the earth, the ascension divination!"
"Hmm? They're going to ascend? That means they're going to cultivate to the Creator level? Let me see how long it will take for them to cultivate to the Creator level? Where will it be? We'll be able to wait for them to exhaust themselves. "
Hong Yi used the divination divination around the ascension divination to calculate the future. Suddenly, there was a change in the lines of the six and five lines.
"Six and five lines, ascension, Ji Zhen. There's still a month before the new year. This group of people should undergo the Lightning Tribulations next year, on the fifth of the fifth month. The location is in the Desolate Land. There's no mistake about it! "
Hong Yi calculated.
