Chapter 98: Six Paths Reincarnation Heavenly Art!

Swish...!

Wherever the sword radiance passed, the Black Hand Peach Tree was nearly split in two; its branches and leaves danced frantically, yet it could hardly withstand this peerless strike!

"Damn it, why are you still so strong!" the Black Hand Peach Tree roared madly, struggling wildly.

Hearing this, the Saint Emperor's silver pupils turned cold and stern, and his sharp shout shook the underground space: "You are merely a product of an old era; you were no match for me back then, and as for now... you are even less so!"

"Moreover, regardless of the grievances between your master, Liudaolunhuidi, and my master, you should not have attacked my Young Master!"

Having said this, the Dao Laws around the Saint Emperor boiled, surging forth like a tide, compressing everything in the surroundings until it twisted and deformed!

His figure suddenly erupted, like lightning tearing through the darkness, and he summoned his exclusive weapon, the Three-Pointed Double-Edged Blade, heading straight for the main trunk of the Black Hand Peach!

Lin Potian's ears twitched, and understanding the cause and effect of the matter, his heart warmed: "So that's how it is. This Liudaolunhuidi actually had a grudge against the Taboo Senior? Saint Emperor, I will remember this rescue."

"So strong, truly worthy of being the Taboo Senior's killing-type Immortal Emperor Artifact!"

Listening to the constant sounds, Lin Potian gazed over and kept exclaiming in admiration, gaining an intuitive understanding of the Saint Emperor's strength. No wonder he could go head-to-head with the Immortal Domain's Heavenly Dao; his power was truly terrifying!

One could see the Saint Emperor's offensive was relentless; amidst the flickering blade light, the branches of the Black Hand Peach snapped one after another, and shrill, mournful cries echoed through the underground, incessant to the ear!

"I am not reconciled, ah ah ah! Why is it that even though my master is already dead, your master can still be alive? And can even find a successor? Ah ah ah, I am truly not reconciled!"

The Black Hand Peach's voice trembled violently; it appeared that he was completely no match for the Saint Emperor, and one could even say the gap was quite large!

"Your master's death was not my master's fault!"

"But today, you must pay the price for attacking my Young Master!"

The Saint Emperor gave a cold shout, his aura fully unleashed, and the Dao Laws around him were quite violent!

"Pay what price? My master has been dead for a million years, and I have waited here for you for a million years! I have no heart to explain right or wrong, Black Hand Peach, and I cannot defeat your master. Since that is the case, then you shall all accompany me and be buried with my master!"

The Black Hand Peach roared and shrieked, the entire tree body trembling wildly, its surging power agitated; it was clearly visible... it was actually going to self-destruct!

Seeing this, the Saint Emperor's expression turned extremely grave; he turned his head to look at Lin Potian and whispered: "Young Master, be careful."

"I know, I know, you take care of your own safety!"

Lin Potian hurriedly responded, decisively pulling the bewildered Lin Feng, whose six senses had been blocked, behind him, and his hands continuously formed seals as layers of protective shields appeared!

At the same time, he was horrified in his heart: what kind of grudge did this Black Hand Peach's master, Liudaolunhuidi, have with the Taboo Senior?

This Black Hand Peach would actually go as far as to self-destruct just to bury this entire group of theirs?

But just at this moment, a decaying sigh rang out from the ruins ahead: "Little Peach, stop. Saint Emperor, you stop too."

"This voice, could it be...?" Lin Potian's heart tightened. This sigh came from the ruins, and he instantly thought of something.

Moreover, this sigh pierced straight through his eardrums and reached the bottom of his heart; its Immortal Dao intensity was simply... unfathomable!

What shocked Lin Potian even more was that after this sigh, the Dao Laws around the Saint Emperor seemed to have had their fire extinguished, all of them failing!

But the Saint Emperor did not show a trace of panic; he only bowed slightly and whispered: "Tongtian Tower Tower Spirit Saint Emperor, greets His Excellency Liudaolunhui!"

Once this whisper came out, Lin Potian's pupils dilated; he had guessed correctly!

This sigh belonged to that very Liudaolunhui Xiandi!

But from what the Saint Emperor said just now, this Immortal Emperor had already passed away!

And the one more agitated than anyone else was that Black Hand Peach!

It trembled continuously, all its branches and leaves drooping toward the ruins, and all its peach fruits also hung inside. A tree spirit that looked like a young boy walked out from within, knelt down before the ruins, and wept uncontrollably: "Master, eat a peach, you eat a peach; once you eat the peach, you will be better!"

As the words fell, the entire underground was silent, and even the Saint Emperor was silent.

Lin Potian was even more speechless; he really found it hard to connect that violent Black Hand Peach from just a moment ago with this tree spirit that was as devout as an innocent child!

Inside the ruins, that voice did not come out for a long time, as if it were also troubled by the Black Hand Peach's devotion. After a while, "Little Peach, there is no need for this; I have already passed away. This is merely a wisp of a remnant soul gathered over a million years in this mausoleum; eating a peach is already useless."

As the words fell, a majestic phantom of a man slowly walked out of the ruins.

His figure was tall, wearing black robes, his features plain, but those eyes were exceptionally deep. Although there was not a shred of light shining around his body, it made a feeling of reverence rise involuntarily in Lin Potian's heart, and he could not help but cast a look of respect.

Even the Saint Emperor bowed again and said respectfully: "Tongtian Tower Tower Spirit Saint Emperor, greets His Excellency Liudaolunhui!"

This phantom was precisely a wisp of the remnant soul of Liudaolunhui Xiandi!

"No need for formalities."

Liudaolunhuidi responded with a smile, walked to the front of the Black Hand Peach tree spirit, gently stroked the top of its head, and whispered: "Little Peach, thank you. The matter of that year, it is not his fault, really not his fault; he did not force me, it was I who had already been tainted by the Ominous, and I chose to hold the rear myself."

"As for the grievances between me and him, they were nothing more than the hot-bloodedness of youth, long since vanished like smoke; how could there be anything to speak of?"

"Wuwu, Master, I just want you to be alive." Hearing this, the tree spirit could not listen at all, only weeping blindly.

This scene was truly heartbreaking for those who saw it and tear-jerking for those who heard it; Lin Potian was also filled with emotion.

At this point, Lin Potian also understood the full cause and effect of the matter.

The "he" in the mouth of this Liudaolunhui Xiandi must be the Taboo Senior, and this Black Hand Peach thought it was the Taboo Senior who forced Liudaolunhui Xiandi to hold the rear, which led to his passing!

As for the "tainted by the Ominous" he mentioned...

"It should be the Ominous Black Blood and monsters like the Origin Beasts inside my own body." Lin Potian smiled bitterly and shook his head, his heart incomparably complex; even an Immortal Emperor-level powerhouse had fallen to this black blood.

And he was only a small Immortal King Mid-Stage, yet he had encountered such filthy things...

Damn, he was truly unlucky to the point of resignation!

"Little Peach, so this matter is not his fault, but your previous attack on his successor, that was wrong..."

Speaking to this point, Liudaolunhuidi looked toward Lin Potian and smiled gently: "Little friend, I apologize to you on behalf of Little Peach; additionally, I will gift you a top-grade peach fruit. How about we let this matter pass?"

Once Lin Potian heard this, with an Immortal Emperor-level supreme powerhouse speaking, and in such a manner, how could he possibly still put on airs? He hurriedly cupped his hands and said: "Senior, you are too kind! Everything shall be as you arrange!"

"In that case, good!" Liudaolunhuidi smiled slightly, reached out to pluck the only top-grade peach fruit from the Black Hand Peach, walked toward Lin Potian, and placed it in his hand.

And they locked eyes; Lin Potian felt as if he had been seen through in an instant!

Liudaolunhui Xiandi frowned slightly and said: "Little friend, you have also encountered that thing?"

"Replying to Senior, that is indeed the case." Lin Potian gave a bitter smile; seeing this Immortal Emperor-level powerhouse frown, his mood suddenly became heavy.

"It is fine. I observe that little friend has the bearing of a dragon and phoenix, and you are the successor of an old friend; you will surely turn bad luck into good and encounter auspiciousness in the face of disaster!" Liudaolunhui Xiandi's eyes brightened slightly for a moment, and he said it right off the bat.

"Then I shall borrow your auspicious words, Senior."

Lin Potian leaned forward and cupped his hands in a salute; regardless of whether this Immortal Emperor was just speaking polite pleasantries, since the other party had said as much, he certainly had to return the gesture!

"Very well."

Liudaolunhuidi smiled slightly again, and then, he actually looked toward Lin Feng, who was behind Lin Potian!

Lin Potian instinctively took a step forward to protect his own, blocking Lin Feng, and asked nervously: "Senior, what are you planning to do?"

Liudaolunhuidi was slightly taken aback, looked at Lin Feng, perceived his bloodline, and then shook his head with a laugh: "My time is running out, and I am about to dissipate... so naturally, I intend to pass on my techniques to Lin Feng. He was already the successor I chose, but I did not expect him to also be the descendant of my little friend; this matter is truly a coincidence!"

Upon hearing this, the heart Lin Potian had been holding finally settled; just a moment ago, his heart had almost jumped out of his chest—being targeted by an Immortal Emperor was certainly no good thing!

However, was this actually trustworthy?

He looked toward the Holy Emperor, who had been silent all this time...

Lin Potian was exceptionally cautious; otherwise, he would not have grown step by step to become the strongest man in the Heavens!

"Your Excellency Liudaolunhuidi, what if I said you could still be resurrected?"

"But the prerequisite is that you, Your Excellency, must also pass a copy of the Six Paths Reincarnation Heavenly Art to my Young Master, Lin Potian!"

The Holy Emperor had been silent for so long, yet his opening words were earth-shattering!

"Holy Emperor, you're amazing!"

Lin Potian felt numb with delight inside and almost couldn't suppress his laughter; this Holy Emperor was truly reliable, he really stepped up when it mattered, and even secured benefits for him!

Swish... swish!

Liudaolunhuidi turned his head in an instant, and even the Heishou Taoshuling looked at the Holy Emperor with an expression of disbelief!

"Holy Emperor, I know you are arrogant and once suppressed the rivers and mountains with a single tower, turning the tide. But as for the matter of resurrection, you cannot do it; even your master could not do it. This is not something an Immortal Emperor can accomplish."

Liudaolunhuidi spoke gloomily and shook his head incessantly, thinking to himself that he had almost been bluffed by this Tower Spirit, the Holy Emperor!
