He was supposed to escort Monk Jie Ding back to the Buddha Spirit World from the realm gate. He didn't expect Song Li to detect his whereabouts. Now that Song Li had asked him to stay, Yi Tian couldn't just leave like that. He turned around and flew toward the mountain where Song Li was.
After landing, Song Li spoke again and directly mentioned that he had helped back then. Fortunately, Yi Tian had always lived in seclusion. Even in Lihuo, there were very few people who knew of his existence, let alone Song Li.
After the two of them sat down on the mountain, Song Li asked first, "Brother Yi's strength is extraordinary. It's definitely above mine. In the Spiritual Realm, people with such strength can only appear in the three major sects. "
"Fellow Daoist Song has good eyesight. I wonder if you can guess my origins?" Yi Tian asked with a smile.
"Zheng Tingyun from the Taiqing Pavilion and Lu Jianling from the Feiyu Kenshū Sect are both in the middle stage of the Unification Stage. In terms of strength, they're slightly stronger than me." Song Li said seriously, "These two sects haven't had a cultivator in the late stage of the Unification Stage for almost ten thousand years. As for Brother Yi's background, you should be from the most mysterious Lihuo Palace."
Song Liyou's guess was quite reasonable, and Yi Tian naturally nodded silently in response. Song Li smiled and continued, "Thank you, Brother Yi, for your help back then. That's why we were able to resolve the danger of the realm gate."
"Brother Song, you're too polite. In terms of strength, you're slightly stronger than Dugu Gonglong. In addition, we were in the Spiritual Realm and had favorable conditions. It wasn't difficult to defend the realm gate with the help of the three major sects," Yi Tian replied.
"Brother Yi, you're too polite. Even so, I still have to thank you for scattering the reinforcements. Otherwise, my disciple, Xi Tianying, would have led a group of people from the Army Destroyer Mountain into a tough battle," Song Li explained.
Speaking of Xi Tianying, Yi Tian's eyes flashed. He remembered that the last time they met in the Demon Realm was a few hundred years ago. Back then, he had specially given him a spirit artifact saber and even pointed out the direction of Chi Wuji.
He must have been to the Buddha Spirit World's Grand Lightning Temple as well. As for whether the two of them fought after finding Chi Wuji, there was no telling. But thinking about it, even if they didn't fight, the knot in his heart should have been eased.
Song Li's expression did not change as he seemed to have noticed his strange behavior. Then, his lips moved slightly as if he was sending a message. Not long after, Yi Tian's Divine Sense sensed a strong spiritual pressure fluctuation rapidly flying towards them. Needless to say, it must be Xi Tianying himself.
Thinking back to when the two of them first met, she was slightly lower than him, but now, she was an entire realm higher than him. He was at the late stage of the Spirit Severing Stage, but he had already reached the late stage of the Combination Stage.
Just like the famous saying in the cultivation world, "Once you enter the path of cultivation, you become a martial nephew." When it came to cultivation, no one could say for sure. Sometimes, after breaking through a certain boundary, one would advance courageously, leaving cultivators of the same level far behind.
After a short while, a figure landed in front of the two of them. When the light faded, Xi Tianying's figure was revealed. When he saw his master, he immediately turned around and looked at the person in front of him. He blurted out, "I was wondering who it was. So it's Brother Yi."
Song Li frowned and hurriedly said, "Tianying, don't be unreasonable. Hurry up and greet Brother Yi."
Unexpectedly, Xi Tianying casually sat down and said, "Master, there's no need to be so formal. Brother Yi and I have known each other for many years. Back then, we met in Luo Xia City, Taiqing Pavilion, Langhuan Cave Heaven, and the Demon Realm. "
Song Li rolled his eyes at him, then turned around and said, "Fellow Daoist Yi, please forgive me. My disciple is unruly. He is always like this."
Yi Tian didn't mind at all and replied, "Fellow Daoist Song, there's no need to explain. Brother Xi and I have known each other for many years due to our similar temperaments. It's a great blessing in life to see an old friend today. "
"That's right, even Brother Yi said so. Master, there's no need to be so formal." Xi Tianying also said disdainfully.
Song Li shook his head and said, "Things are different now. Now, Brother Yi's cultivation is higher than mine. How can you treat him as an equal?"
"Is that so?" Xi Tianying's expression changed drastically after hearing that. He turned around and sized up Yi Tian in front of him. After scanning back and forth with his Divine Thought, the expression on his face became more and more dignified.
After a while, he sighed and said, "Brother Yi, your cultivation is stronger than when we met in the Demon Realm. I really don't know how you cultivate. Compared to you, I'm really ashamed. I'm afraid the gap between our cultivation will only grow bigger in the future. "
"Brother Xi, there's no need to feel ashamed. You have to know that continuous improvement is the right path of cultivation." Yi Tian said seriously, "Everyone's opportunities are different, so the opportunities they can obtain are also different. However, as long as you have the courage to forge ahead, you can continue to walk down this path. The level of cultivation can be slowly made up, but the firmness of your Dao Heart is the most important. "
"Brother Yi is right. Tianying, your aptitude isn't bad. What you lack is experience and opportunity." Song Li said, "This demon disaster is a great opportunity. If you can grasp the opportunity during this period, you might be able to find the opportunity to break through to the Body Integration Stage soon. Now, Qing Lianyun of the Taiqing Pavilion is already ahead of your peers. I've seen her strength. There's still a lot of room for improvement. I'm afraid her cultivation will definitely surpass mine in this lifetime. "
As soon as he said that, Yi Tian's expression changed slightly. He looked at Yi Tian, who was in front of him. He was very clear about the relationship between the two of them. Then, he said with a serious expression, "Master, don't worry. During this demon disaster, I will definitely grasp the opportunity and move forward bravely."
"That's good. You can leave first. I have a few words to say to Brother Yi alone," Song Li said lightly.
Xi Tianying seemed to have thought of something, but after seeing his master's eyes, he still cowered. After a while, he lowered his head and said, "Yes, Master."
But before he left, he secretly transmitted a message to Yi Tian, "Don't be in a hurry to leave later. We haven't seen each other for hundreds of years. When you have time, sit down and catch up."
Xi Tianying's action naturally couldn't be hidden from the Invincible Blade Song Li. However, he seemed to have tacitly agreed and didn't stop him. Yi Tian knew that the following conversation between the two of them was the most important. Moreover, he could already guess what Song Li wanted to say.
After they left, Song Li opened a soundproof barrier. Then, he cupped his hands and said, "Brother Yi, please forgive me. My disciple has always been careless and doesn't know what to do."
"You're too polite, Fellow Song. I think what you want to say next is related to Xi Tianying, right? I'm all ears," Yi Tian replied lightly.
"Okay." Song Li nodded and said, "Brother Yi, can you see how long I have left?"
"With Fellow Song's strength, you have at least a thousand years. However, for a mid-stage Unification Stage cultivator, there's not much time left," Yi Tian said.
