Chapter 614: Grave Guardian Clan Flaming Red Ancient Lion
"......"
Upon hearing this, Yuxuan almost rolled her eyes at Chen Xun. She then handed the Longevity Pill to him, saying, "Tell Heling to be careful when refining it, and not to be impatient."
"Alright," Chen Xun replied with a smile, "As expected of Brother Ye Han's master, truly a legendary powerhouse of the Immortal Palace."
"Why are you flattering me now? Cut it out."
Yuxuan chuckled, then suddenly looked at Black Bull. "Black Bull, why are you staring at me? Are you thinking of going to Yao Terrace Immortal Palace to cultivate?"
"Moo?!" Black Bull tilted his gaze, his tail swaying slightly, his fur trembling. Why did she sound just like Wang Da Auntie?
Want to argue with it? Not a chance! It would never engage with such a fierce woman.
"Chen Xun, can't your 'brother' speak?" Yuxuan examined Black Bull, speaking softly, "Or does he look down on me and is deliberately staying silent..."
"Moo?! Moo moo moo!!" Black Bull panicked instantly, mooing at Yuxuan to avoid any false accusations leading to an argument!
Chen Xun looked at Black Bull with a gentle gaze, "I understand what he means with just a moo. We don't need much communication between us."
A peculiar look flashed in Yuxuan's eyes. She remembered this Black Bull also came out of the Immortal Prison, but there was nothing special about it—definitely just an ordinary bull.
She didn't use her divine sense to probe them; cultivators were very wary of such things, as everyone had their secrets.
Doing this too often could become a habit, and provoking some unknown existence could bring unforeseen disaster.
In the cultivation environment of Yao Terrace Immortal Palace, although she had seen much, her reverence also grew.
Yuxuan smiled and suddenly patted Black Bull lightly, making a soft sound. The latter was shocked and quickly hid behind Chen Xun, looking at Yuxuan warily.
Chen Xun was speechless at this scene; this was supposed to be his exclusive right...
Yuxuan laughed out loud; Chen Xun's family was indeed interesting, especially... the Flaming Red Ancient Lion hiding nearby!
Whoosh~
With quick reflexes, she pulled off the ragged blanket, and the sky's glow shone on Little Chi, who cried out miserably, "Brother Xun, Brother Bull, save me!!"
"Senior Yuxuan..." Chen Xun sighed inwardly. Why was Yuxuan's temperament so strange, lacking the demeanor of a Great Ascension Venerable? She acted on impulse, even targeting Little Chi.
Yuxuan didn't respond to Chen Xun but instead set up a soundproof barrier. She looked at the mutated big red dog, her eyes flickering with light, "Flaming Red Ancient Lion?"
"Hmm?"
"Moo?"
"Ah..."
Chen Xun and the others were momentarily stunned. They had been in this grand world for so long, yet it was the first time someone recognized Little Chi's species.
Yuxuan's previously unserious expression gradually turned serious, "The Taiwei Great World, an ancient remnant from the Era of Great Slaughter among the myriad clans, a powerful ancient clan destroyed by the collapse of the Taiwei Purple Immortal Trees."
"This clan can still survive to this day... truly a miracle, worthy of being a legendary ancient powerful clan."
She stared intently at Little Chi, her eyes filled with an inexplicable meaning, "The legendary Tomb-Guarding Clan, isn't it the Flaming Red Ancient Lion Clan... guarding the remnants of the grand world, peering into the cycle of heaven and earth, exploring the flow of time, yet ultimately perished."
Yuxuan murmured, seemingly lost in thought, leaving Chen Xun, Black Bull, and Little Chi dumbfounded. Their mouths hung open, as if carved from the same mold. Although they didn't understand...
They were greatly shocked!
"But does the appearance of this little one also signify the revival of heaven and earth... another new cycle of heaven and earth, alas."
Yuxuan sighed softly, her long hair fluttering behind her, "Master, it seems you were right. If we don't elevate the entire Three Thousand Great Worlds, we will always be trapped in the cycle of heaven and earth, unable to escape the fate of the grand world."
Chen Xun furrowed his brows, Black Bull was bewildered, Little Chi was horrified, what was all this about?!
Yuxuan's eyes were filled with contemplation as she slowly stood up, "These matters have nothing to do with you, don't overthink it. Take good care of Heling, and I hope you won't regret today's decision in the future."
"Yes." Chen Xun cupped his hands, never one to worry unnecessarily, feeling quite carefree, "Senior, is my fourth brother in danger?"
After all Yuxuan had said, he summarized that the background was immense, but the family had fallen. He wondered if any powerful cultivators would hunt down such an ancient remnant.
"No, they're all gone. Whose grudges would last so long, and it serves no great purpose."
Yuxuan's peripheral gaze lingered on Little Chi, "The extinction of the Tomb-Guarding Clan merely signifies the end of an era. Perhaps some remnants of the Taiwei Great World can still be found, or perhaps not, who knows?"
Little Chi swallowed secretly, its mane trembling non-stop. Its inherited memory was confined to the small boundary, with no recollection of the grand world... Could this Venerable have made a mistake?
But it dared not refute, this woman's background was too significant.
The Immortal Palace was said to be able to directly contend with the Immortal Hall, and the rules of the grand world couldn't cover its territory. The cultivation rules were entirely self-determined by the Immortal Palace.
Chen Xun, with one hand behind his back, sighed softly, "Senior, if there is a cycle of heaven and earth, is there a cycle for living beings?"
"What do you mean?"
"Seeking guidance."
"Moo moo!"
"You can ask at the Taiyi Ghost Gate; they might give you an answer."
Yuxuan looked at Chen Xun and Black Bull, seemingly understanding something, "If there truly is a cycle in this world, you should understand that the existence of living beings in this heaven and earth is meaningless."
"You have now ascended to Unity, having perceived the celestial realm, yet you still can't see through life and death?"
"To be honest, Senior, I can't see through it, nor do I wish to."
"Hehe, then venture to the Taiyi Ghost Gate. I hope you find your answer there."
Yuxuan turned with a wave of her sleeve, her long dress sweeping the ground, a hint of dominance between her brows, "If you can't see through life and death, how can you ascend to the Great Ascension Venerable realm? Cultivators should forge ahead without looking back."
At this moment, a faint law pattern appeared on Chen Xun's brow, his aura suddenly becoming unfathomably deep, an indescribable momentum rising. He looked into the distance, "I dare not agree."
Yuxuan chuckled lightly; why were juniors called juniors? Their cultivation was still too shallow.
She slightly turned her head, about to speak, when she suddenly trembled all over, her expression shocked. That brow... the rule pattern inscribed by heaven and earth, unfathomable, unknowable!
Chen Xun slowly turned his head with a smile, calmly saying, "Thank you, Senior Yuxuan, for today. We also need to prepare to leave the vast sea area in the coming days. We will definitely visit the Yao Terrace Immortal Palace to pay respects to the Venerable in the future."
Yuxuan's eyes were incomparably clear. She remembered saying once, 'If you have the opportunity in the future, and you qualify to visit the Yao Terrace Immortal Palace, I will personally teach you.'
Now he dared to say this, was he responding to her words back then... What kind of immortal path monster was this... Human race, impossible!
"Chen Xun!"
"Please speak, Venerable."
"What exactly is your race?" Yuxuan stared at Chen Xun, no longer daring to underestimate him, speaking each word deliberately, "I suspect you are an alien spirit of the grand world, a race undetectable even in immortal history."
Little Chi's eyes flashed with a glimmer of recognition upon hearing this, agreeing wholeheartedly. Brother Bull was definitely not a beast of heaven and earth, much less a bull.
Chen Xun chuckled, cupping his hands, "Naturally, I am of the human race."
Yuxuan took a deep breath. Chen Xun's brow pattern had already vanished, with no trace of Great Ascension aura, genuinely a Unity cultivator, as if what happened earlier was just an illusion.
"Then I will await you at the Yao Terrace Immortal Palace."
"Alright."
"Won't you see me off?"
"I will!"
Seeing Yuxuan's face about to explode, Chen Xun quickly shouted, "Bull, Little Chi, clear the way for the Venerable, let's go~"
"Moo moo~~"
"Roar!"
The three figures immediately sprang into action, standing on either side of Yuxuan, arms crossed, a stance taught by their eldest brother to exert pressure!
Chen Xun solemnly escorted from the front, while Yuxuan shook her head with a smile. Chen Xun's temperament was ever-changing, completely unreadable, yet he was quite an interesting person, never servile nor overbearing towards seniors.
Yuxuan suddenly paused, "That's enough."
With that, she vanished from the spot, leaving no extra words behind.
Chen Xun halted his steps without turning back. He looked at the bottle of Longevity Pills in his hand, revealing a wistful smile. Yuxuan, this Great Ascension Venerable, truly had a big sister vibe, quite unique.
He turned his head towards the fighting platform on the sea, where explosive sounds like thunder echoed from all directions. Mo Ye Han had undoubtedly become a dazzling star in this grand academy competition.
He had once protected his old friends and family, and in the future, he would ensure the Mo family thrived for eternity, prosperous and flourishing!
Chen Xun's smile deepened, "Brothers, let's get ready to leave."
"Moo!"
"Brother Xun, I'll go pick up the blanket!"
They responded quickly, all preparing to depart, having seen enough over the past few days.
As Chen Xun walked along the path, he took out a communication disk, channeling his divine sense:
"Crossing the World."
"Ji Yan, we're getting ready to leave."
"Hehe, alright, then I wish you a smooth journey."
"Until we meet again."
"Of course."
The two voices fell silent instantly, as Ji Yan rose from his seat, quietly leaving as well.
Around the small fighting platform on the sea.
Luoshuang approached Nangong Heling, speaking coldly, "Miss Nangong, Lord Ji Yan has sent word, prepare to leave."
Little Crane, with a gentle smile, nodded slightly, "Have them prepare as well, and be careful not to harm others, as this matter has nothing to do with the Mu family."
"Understood."
Luoshuang cupped her hands in response, quietly leaving the crowd of cultivators.
Little Crane took one last look at Feng Jinyu, who was being beaten on the grand competition platform, and then quietly left. Feng Jinyu felt a pang in her heart, as if it were empty, that place now vacant, with no one there.
She had truly left...
