Chapter 38
🕑 Added 2024-01-20 13:14:16 +0000 UTCTime flows like a river.
In the blink of an eye, another year has passed.
Lin Yuan's life has hardly changed.
Not in the insights left by the previous Celestial Masters within the True Martial Dao Treasury.
But on top of Longhu Mountain, watching the sea of clouds.
Apart from occasional communication with Qingping, he hardly speaks a word.
Master Azure Daoist Cangqing learned of Qingping entering the third realm, thanks to Lin Yuan's guidance.
He wanted to have a conversation with Lin Yuan, but was quickly distracted by external events.
The Demon Sect is about to engage in a decisive battle.
The Demon Sect Master, along with nine vice sect masters, forty-three protectors, one hundred and twenty-six helmsmen, and thousands of demons, is determined to attack Longhu Mountain.
Longhu Mountain is the ancestral land of the Dao sect, and the Celestial Master Sect (Tian Shi Sect, it's the same) is the foremost sect in the world, producing invincible Celestial Masters throughout generations.
As long as Longhu Mountain is conquered and the Celestial Master Sect is destroyed, who in the world can stop the footsteps of the Demon Sect?
The True Martial Hall.
The atmosphere is tense.
Various Celestial Phenomenon Realm experts, led by Azure Daoist Cangqing, gathered together.
Most of these Celestial Phenomenon Realm experts come from other forces across the world, responding to the call of the Celestial Master Sect.
Everyone understands the principle of mutual dependence. If the Demon Sect really conquers the Celestial Master Sect, other righteous forces will be next.
During peacetime, righteous forces have slain many demons.
Once the Demon Sect gains power, their fate will not be much better than that of the Celestial Master Sect.
"The nine vice sect masters of the Demon Sect are all in the Celestial Phenomenon Realm, and the forty-three protectors are in the third realm. This won't be easy to deal with," says a middle-aged woman-looking Celestial Phenomenon Realm expert.
Other Celestial Phenomenon Realm powerhouses nod slightly at her words.
Together, they have eleven Celestial Phenomenon Realm experts, surpassing the Demon Sect by two.
However, Demon Sect's Celestial Phenomenon Realm experts are formidable and skilled in combat. Even if two righteous Celestial Phenomenon Realm experts team up against one from the Demon Sect, the outcome is uncertain.
"But it doesn't matter," says Azure Daoist Cangqing, the sect master of the Celestial Master Sect.
In terms of combat power, the Celestial Phenomenon Realm experts who follow the path of Taiyin Wujie or Taiyang Wujie are obviously stronger than those of the Demon Sect.
This has been confirmed in multiple past confrontations.
Azure Daoist Cangqing has effortlessly repelled several vice sect masters of the Demon Sect in three encounters.
Even the Demon Sect Master chose to retreat when facing Azure Daoist Cangqing.
However, under the current circumstances, the Demon Sect is daring to initiate a decisive battle, intending to attack Longhu Mountain?
This gives Azure Daoist Cangqing a bad premonition.
Two possibilities exist.
One, the Demon Sect has gone mad and is ready to fight to the death.
Two, the Demon Sect has sufficient confidence and believes it can conquer Longhu Mountain.
Azure Daoist Cangqing thinks the former is unlikely. In his numerous interactions with the Demon Sect Master, he is aware of the latter's extremely calm personality. He wouldn't undertake something without certainty.
This is also the reason the Demon Sect Master chose to retreat without directly engaging with Azure Daoist Cangqing – not out of fear, but out of a desire to avoid wasting time.
On this day, Qingping hastily ascends to the top of Longhu Mountain.
"Senior Brother Shanfeng, something's wrong. Master Changqing... Master Changqing, he..."
Qingping's face is pale as he carefully looks at Lin Yuan.
"What happened to Master Changqing?"
Lin Yuan opens his eyes and turns to look at Qingping.
"When Senior Changqing Daoist pursued the demon leader, he fell into an ambush. By the time we arrived, he was already heavily injured and unconscious. The Sect Master and others have examined him and said that demonic energy has entered his lungs, making it difficult for him to wake up."
Qingping explained the situation in one breath.
"Take me to see him."
Lin Yuan said directly.
No matter what, if it weren't for Senior Changqing Daoist back then, he wouldn't have survived to this day.
Although, for Lin Yuan, death is not the end. It's just a waste of a chance to traverse.
Inside the Daoist Institute,
Lin Yuan looks at the unconscious Senior Changqing Daoist.
Qingping stands beside, his face showing sorrow.
Senior Changqing Daoist has a good relationship with the Celestial Master Sect, and Qingping has received countless help. In Qingping's heart, Senior Changqing Daoist is more like an elder than just a senior uncle.
"It's nothing serious."
Lin Yuan carefully examines him and comes to a conclusion.
Senior Changqing Daoist fought with the demon leader, who infused demonic energy into him, causing him to lose consciousness and be unable to wake up.
This kind of infusion is difficult for outsiders to intervene in, even the peak of the Celestial Phenomenon Realm can't do much.
But as long as Lin Yuan, using the power of Yin and Yang as a foundation, breaks through the Celestial Phenomenon Realm, it will be an easy task to deal with this demonic energy infusion.
"Take care of Senior Changqing. I'll come to save him in a while."
Lin Yuan instructs Qingping.
Now, he is only a step away from completely integrating Yin and Yang. The insights into the Unrivaled Insight are deepening every moment, bringing Lin Yuan closer to the level of the Celestial Master.
"Alright."
Qingping hesitates for a moment and responds.
The coma of Senior Changqing Daoist has not affected Lin Yuan much. He is always in a state of enlightenment.
With the help of Unrivaled Insight, Lin Yuan is in a state of enlightenment whether he is awake or asleep.
[Your insight is unrivaled, and your understanding of the Yin and Yang Dao is deepening.]
[Your insight is unrivaled, and your understanding of the Yin and Yang Dao is deepening.]
[Your insight is unrivaled, and your understanding of the Yin and Yang Dao is deepening.]
Lin Yuan sits cross-legged on a giant stone, his mind free of distractions, continuing to comprehend the power of Yin and Yang.
It must be said that the power of Yin and Yang is the highest-level force Lin Yuan has ever encountered.
Just comprehending this power has taken nearly ten years for Lin Yuan.
This is still with the help of the Unrivaled Insight ability.
Of course, compared to other powerhouses in this world, even the Celestial Masters of past generations, Lin Yuan's comprehension and cultivation speed are beyond reason, impossible to describe by any measure.
Several hundred miles away from Longhu Mountain,
Inside a dark hall,
A tall man in black robes sits on the main seat.
This tall man has pitch-black eyes. Just a glance from an ordinary person would breed inner demons, with various desires surging out.
"Master."
"Engaging in a decisive battle with the Celestial Master Sect so early, is it..."
On the right below, an old man with wrinkled skin cautiously asks.
The Celestial Master Sect's background is immeasurable, having produced thirty-six invincible Celestial Masters.
Even other righteous forces will not sit idly by; they will undoubtedly provide full support.
Although the Demon Sect is powerful, it is not advisable to confront the Celestial Master Sect head-on.
"A bunch of useless people."
"If this seat didn't have confidence."
"Would I make such a decision?"
The Demon Sect Master, sitting on the main seat, coldly snorts.
The various demon followers below break out in a cold sweat.
Even the nine vice sect masters who have reached the Celestial Phenomenon Realm feel a chill down their spines.
They know their own potential, and with their potential, it's impossible for them to enter the Celestial Phenomenon Realm. The Demon Sect Master, by some means, forcibly elevated them to this realm.
Although the sacrifice was significant, at least thirty to forty years of lifespan, the nine vice sect masters have no regrets. This is the Celestial Phenomenon Realm, a realm that many people dream of, and the feeling of standing at the pinnacle of the world is something no one would disdain.
"I know what you're worried about."
The Demon Sect Master slowly stands up from the main seat.
"But this seat has already stepped into the Celestial Phenomenon Realm. As long as the Celestial Master Sect doesn't produce a Celestial Master, with my strength, I can sweep them aside."
The Demon Sect Master's eyes are deep and mysterious.
