Grandpa, times have changed.

Chapter 910 The Beginning of Everything

For more than a thousand years afterward.

As Yuan's cultivation level gradually increased, the Tai Xuan Realm underwent earth-shaking changes!

With the tacit approval of the True Immortals, many major righteous sects were united by them, and a force called the 'Righteous Path Alliance' suddenly emerged.

Aside from lacking a true immortal to oversee it, its size is no less than any immortal sect.

The world turned a new page.

An era of great change.

A crucial juncture dividing 'ancient times' and 'present times'.

In this era, no matter how brilliant a genius is, they all pale in comparison to the brilliance of the most dazzling person in the past thousand years.

Holy Emperor!

The name 'Holy Emperor Abyss' resounds throughout the world!

……

……

Mysterious Sea.

The Supreme Council is located in an underwater city.

Beneath the Holy Emperor's Palace.

Then you see a winding staircase spiraling down, with a bright golden gem inlaid at intervals on the walls on both sides of the staircase.

A figure in a black coat walked down the stairs and soon reached the top.

A heavy stone door opened by itself with a rumbling sound, revealing a spacious interior.

After passing through several more barriers, they finally arrived at a space of about a hundred square meters.

The white walls are inlaid with the same golden gemstones as the staircase, and the soft light illuminates the space. Rows of bookshelves are neatly arranged with many books on them.

"Travels in Qingxu", "An Initial Explanation of the Mysterious Universe"...

Next to the bookshelf was a workbench, surrounded by piles of metal parts covered with inscriptions, which seemed to be part of some kind of large magical artifact.

On the workbench, a few jade slips and a set of surveying instruments were scattered about, all resting on top of a book called "Miscellaneous Talks about the Universe".

In the corner sat a small armillary sphere and a small bottle of bright red liquid, as clear as a beautiful gemstone.

The bright red liquid seemed to contain extremely powerful life force, trembling gently as if it were alive; it was clearly the blood of some powerful being.

"Azure Blood..."

He stared at the small bottle of blood for a while.

He frowned and took out a bright, vivid, and richly colored red jade that resembled a water droplet.

He obtained this bottle of 'Azure Blood' from Qingxu when he was searching for the weak points in the world.

He also used the blood to make several small gadgets, which surprisingly worked quite well.

So a while ago he made a special trip back to Qingxu, intending to find some more.

As a result, not only did he fail to find any new 'Azure Blood', he was also chased by a poisonous insect, losing two crafted blood jades and a drop of sealed Azure Blood inside.

That's absolutely outrageous! A poisonous insect that an ordinary person could easily crush could actually poison Dongzhen?!

Are you even being reasonable?!

After mentally grumbling a few times, Yuan raised his hand and gently tapped the area in front of him.

The space resembled a lake, with ripples spreading outwards.

The red jade in his hand, along with the remaining 'Azure Blood' in the bottle, floated up and split into nine parts.

Together with the red jade, like ten glittering gems, they slowly floated into the space that rippled like the surface of a lake.

Yuan breathed a sigh of relief after finishing all of this.

"Whoo~"

Suddenly, as if he had noticed something, he turned around sharply, his purple eyes staring straight at a certain spot.

But he quickly smiled again.

"I knew you'd just look straight ahead; all of you do that."

"Tsk!"

"Sometimes it's really a headache. Can't they just respect other people's privacy?" Yuan complained.

These words were, of course, intended for that fellow villager whom he had never met.

That guy can do it.

My fellow villager is truly a genius; there's no reason he couldn't do it.

"Let's get down to business!" Yuan's smile faded. "The fact that you can hear this message means I'm no longer in the Tai Xuan Realm."

It's been over a thousand years.

There was absolutely no information about the Sword Ancestor.

It looks like there's not much of a chance to meet.

After all, he had even set up the 'homecoming' laboratory.

“I’ve heard about what you’ve done, and I understand what you’re trying to achieve.”

"So I don't know if you are satisfied with the current state of the Central Continent when you hear this message."

"Ah~"

Yuan sighed deeply.

"I can't help it if you're not satisfied. This is the best I can do."

To be honest, he's a little proud of getting to where he is today.

"Speaking of which, it's all thanks to how ruthless you were back then," Yuan said with emotion.

"alright--"

"That's all the message I left. Please take care of anything else hidden in it."

"I'll probably keep some other things after this."

"There should be a way to find out what you mean."

Yuan paused for a long while after saying this.

emm...

Although his spatial mastery surpasses that of ordinary cultivators, it is impossible for him to deceive a true immortal.

Who knows, after he leaves, someone in the alliance might achieve immortality?

Not afraid of ten thousand, just in case!

"at last--"

"If you are a friend of the alliance and have figured out my method, I hope you can help convey these words to the Sword Sect."

Then there is no problem.

such a pity……

I just missed it.

Otherwise, he would have liked to meet that fellow villager.

"I originally wanted to act a bit more profound..."

He muttered to himself as he walked out.

Before long, his figure disappeared at the gate.

……

……

soon.

It should be said that this is not a very long time for advanced cultivators, only a few decades.

The Holy Emperor Abyss, which had illuminated an entire era, vanished, eclipsing all the other geniuses.

That's right, it's disappearance.

It was that kind of sudden disappearance.

Even the high-level cultivators of the Righteous Path Alliance, and even the Dao Lords at the Cave True Realm level, did not know where he had gone.

Initially, this news only circulated among a small group of high-level cultivators.

But even among this small group, only a very small minority actually care.

It's perfectly normal for someone who has reached the level of Yuan Du Dongzhen to go into seclusion for a while.

It's only been a few decades, what's the big deal?

However, as time went by, and the Righteous Alliance attacked the Joyful Union Sect, Yuan still did not show up.

The higher-ups of the Righteous Alliance then realized something was wrong.

How could he not show up after such a big incident?

And even if something really happens, at least say what you're going to do and where you're going.

Yuan is not the kind of irresponsible person.

Therefore, after some discussion, the higher-ups of the Righteous Alliance decided to seek confirmation from Ming Yu and Ning Wanzhu.

It's one thing if others don't know, but those two definitely do.

As for the result...

There was no reply from Ning Wanzhu.

The only answer they received from Mingyu was to confirm that Yuan was no longer in the Taixuan Realm.

As for where he went and what he did...

That remains to be seen.

After that, the situation within the Righteous Alliance became increasingly strange.

This is a powerful force comparable in size to a celestial sect, so naturally there are many people with designs on it.

Ultimately, no one knows who it was, but they managed to spread the news of Yuan's disappearance.

A chaotic scene.

The various factions within the Righteous Alliance fought tooth and nail for control of the alliance.

A couple also died in the process.

Before they died, they used their last teleportation talisman to send their child away.

An infant girl, still in swaddling clothes, came to the Sword Sect and was found by Sword Master Bie Xuening by chance.

More than a decade later, that baby girl had become the Sword Master's personal disciple and a leading figure among the younger generation of the Immortal Sect. ...

……

"What? You want me to pick up my martial uncle?"

Sword Sect Inner Sect.

The Daoist temple deep within the Sword Master's Hall.

Bie Xuening sat upright in the center of the temple.

Before her, a girl who exuded energy was kneeling obediently, her eyes filled with astonishment.

Her hair was simply tied into a high ponytail, her features were delicate, and her bright, clear eyes were striking. She wore a white T-shirt on top and black cargo pants on the bottom.

Chi Jiuyu.

"Is my martial aunt about to emerge from seclusion?" She scratched her head.

She's never met her martial uncle before.

"Hmm." Bie Xuening said indifferently, "Report to me anytime."

"Emm..." After a moment's hesitation, Chi Jiuyu tentatively asked, "How many contribution points will the reward be?"

"No."

what?

Are people nowadays not even given a carrot as a reward for getting things done?

This is like wanting the horse to run but not wanting it to eat grass!

Chi Jiuyu was filled with resentment!

"However, your uncle is very generous."

Bie Xuening saw through the traitor's thoughts at a glance.

But she's happy now, so I don't want to argue with her.

"If you don't want to go, I can send someone else."

Chi Jiuyu's eyes darted around, and his expression suddenly turned serious.

"go with!"

"Of course we're going!"

"That's our martial uncle! We really should go and pick him up!"

Whether my uncle is generous or not is secondary.

The main goal is to gain the support of my martial uncle, paving the way for my future election as sect leader.

As a qualified candidate for sect leader, she must strive for every bit of support!

Thinking it over in her mind, she stood up.

"By the way, Master, where do I go to pick up my Uncle?"

"Xuanjian City".

Xuanjian City?

What kind of godforsaken place is this?

never mind!

Go back and check it out, then we can just take the teleportation array there!

"Is there anything we need to prepare?"

For example, what hobbies or interests does my uncle have?

She made preparations in advance to facilitate bribery...

Cough!

As a junior, she should also show some respect to her senior uncle!

"No need." Bie Xuening glanced at her. "You can just go directly there."

"Alright..." He scratched his head again, "Then Master, I'll go back and prepare now."

"Ah."

After a pause, Bie Xuening emphasized it again.

"Report to me anytime."

Hey~

We're not going to report it!

Chi Jiuyu's rebellious spirit once again took control of her mind, but on the surface she still pretended to be obedient.

"You still don't trust us?!"

"..."

It's because it's you that I'm worried.

I have a feeling this rebellious disciple is going to court death again...

……

……

That evening, Chi Jiuyu set off.

However, she was a chivalrous person who loved to help those in need, which delayed her quite a bit along the way.

Therefore, Lin Qiuxian and the others who set off a little later than her arrived in Xuanjian City and were arrested and imprisoned in the Silu Hall.

But she was still wandering around on the road.

When I arrived in Xuanjian City, the Third Middle School of Xuanjian City had already started the combat test.

Squeak~ Squeak~

On the sidewalk, Chi Jiuyu held a cup of sugared and iced dragon scale juice, looking at the pedestrians coming and going around him, and couldn't help but feel a headache.

Xuanjian City is so big, where am I supposed to find my martial uncle?

True immortals live in seclusion, so it would be a miracle if a mere Nascent Soul cultivator could see through their disguise!

but……

My uncle is also a true immortal.

He might have already discovered me as soon as I arrived in Xuanjian City.

After all, one's excellence is like gold in coal—so dazzling!

A surge of smugness welled up inside me.

She pulled out the straw and threw it away, then opened the lid and poured the remaining ice cubes directly into her mouth, crunching them loudly.

As she strolled around, she came to the vicinity of a building called [Xuanyue Building].

He paused, glancing at the two figures walking towards the building.

wrong!

something wrong.

A faint golden light shone in her eyes; she had activated the Void-Piercing Golden Eyes.

After noticing the abnormality on the two people, she couldn't help but gasp.

resentment!

Such a strong sense of resentment!

However, before she could see them clearly, the two men walked into the building.

The resentment that could be observed just moments ago vanished without a trace, as if she had simply misread it.

But Chi Jiuyu was certain that he was absolutely not mistaken!

Formation!

This building has been equipped with a protective array to isolate the true situation inside!

Let's follow them and see!

Overwhelmed by a sense of justice, Chi Jiuyu rushed into the building without hesitation, and the two Golden Core stage guards at the door did not notice at all.

He still stood straight, looking straight ahead.

……

……

What happened next was quite simple.

Chi Jiuyu, who broke into Xuan Yue Lou, easily evaded the guards and followed the two people to the underground, where she discovered the huge simulated divine soul cultivation base.

As it turned out, the cultivation base contained not only the two demonic cultivators, but also an old demon who had been injured by the Taixu Exorcising Evil Sword Qi and whose cultivation had reached the Dao Integration Realm.

During the two thousand years that Xu Xing was in seclusion, he was the only demonic cultivator to progress from Qi Refining to Dao Integration.

He can be considered the greatest genius in the demonic path in two thousand years.

But precisely because of this, he was unaware of what happened in ancient times, and had never experienced the bloodbath that swept across the entire Tai Xuan Realm.

His style of doing things is also quite...

impulse.

Therefore, he was never accepted by the small circle of high-level demonic cultivators.

Of course, he also looked down on those demonic cultivators who only hid in the gutter and wished they could live a life of eternity.

In his view, the demonic path should allow one to do whatever one pleases, with those who obey prospering and those who defy one perishing.

With his personality, he naturally wouldn't hold back when he discovered Chi Jiuyu sneaking in.

then……

As a peak-level cultivator, Chi Jiuyu directly unleashed an unparalleled divine power—

'Master, save me!'

In some respects, it surpasses even the so-called supreme supernatural powers.

Under this unparalleled divine power, the old demon had no power to resist and met a tragic end.

The commotion here finally attracted the attention of the other side.

So, just as Chi Jiuyu breathed a sigh of relief and prepared to deal with the remaining two small fry,

"You're Senior Sister's disciple?"

The sound suddenly rang out, echoing throughout the empty cultivation base.

But then they saw that the person who had just been standing there was dressed in modern clothes, with black hair and black eyes.

He wasn't particularly tall, but he gave people an unparalleled sense of security.

It's just like……

You can trust him with anything.

Is this my martial uncle?

Chi Jiuyu was somewhat dazed.

After a long while, hearing the whispers of the two small fry, she finally came to her senses.

"You are... my martial uncle?" (End of Chapter)
