Chapter 81

Besides repaying the kindness, it was also because the alliance of the Ji family, the Qing Emperor, and Tianxuan made the Star Peak Master increasingly terrified. Once a Sage holding an Emperor Weapon made a move, who in the Eastern Wasteland could contend with it?

The Star Peak Master had already foreseen the rise of a magnificent great world.

He could not befriend a Sage, so he could only set his sights on Lin Xian, the future high-level member of this organization.

Evolving the Star Great Dao for him could be considered a kind of good karma, perhaps bringing good results to Star Peak in a thousand or ten thousand years.

Although the Star Peak Master was not as good as the Taixuan Sect Master, he was also a cultivator at the Sendai realm. His explanation of the Dao for Lin Xian was unique and had a different kind of mystery.

Lin Xian took the Tianxuan Heart Method as the foundation and drew inferences from other instances, listening with fascination. In the starry sky at night, the Big Dipper's seven stars—Tianquan, Yuheng, Kaiyang, Yaoguang, Tianji, Tianxuan, and Tianshu—shone brightly, and infinite starlight shone down.

This was the Star Peak's innate Star God Art, which Lin Xian blended into the vision of "Stars Shining on the Blue Sky." The starlight became brighter, and the blue sky became wider!

After practicing like this for a long time, suddenly, the Old Madman sent a spiritual sense to notify Lin Xian, Ye Fan, Hua Yunfei, and others to come to the secret place for urgent matters.

"What is there that two Sages cannot solve?"

Lin Xian was secretly shocked. Was the ultimate Dao Protector of the Ruthless Lineage so difficult to deal with?

He set up a divine rainbow and came to a quiet room with everyone.

In the room, the Void Mirror floated, fixing time and space, making the Half-Sage motionless. The Chaos Green Lotus swayed, ready to refine his Primordial Spirit at any time.

The Old Madman was fully focused, casting out rays of immortal light, refining the Half-Sage's Primordial Spirit, trying to pry open the divine treasure.

"Senior, has something gone wrong?" Lin Xian asked.

The Ji family's old Sage shook his head: "The Tianxuan Sage and I have already pried open his memory and obtained most of the Immortal Scriptures, but the core secrets are hidden in his true spirit."

"He placed a restriction on his own true spirit's will. As long as we force it open, he will self-destruct, leaving no traces."

"This is a Half-Sage who has already touched a trace of Sage Dao laws. The Tianxuan fellow Daoist and I are afraid that something will happen at the last moment."

"So we called you here to verify it."

Hua Yunfei realized upon hearing this, stepped forward, opened his own spiritual sense, and evolved a Heaven-Swallowing Demon Art, presenting it before everyone.

The Immortal Scripture was brilliant, with countless mysteries, and everyone was fascinated, having different insights.

"The Ruthless Great Emperor is truly brilliant." Ye Fan whispered. Cultivating the Heaven-Swallowing Demon Art meant the whole world was a medicine cauldron. Any strong person could be swallowed to strengthen oneself. Possessing such means, it was impossible not to soar.

The Ji family's old Sage examined it carefully for a moment and shook his head: "The core things are missing."

"He did not pass it to me." Hua Yunfei's expression turned pale, and then he thought of something, thoughtfully saying: "He probably didn't pass it to Yaoguang either."

"He wants to be the chess player, and Yaoguang and I are both chess pieces. He doesn't want to be killed by the chess pieces, so he deliberately left a hand."

"What if we let him go?" Lin Xian asked: "As long as he has the desire to survive, he won't self-destruct."

The Ji family's old Sage sighed: "I'm afraid not. This person has been in contact with Emperor Weapons for a long time and has an aura of extreme weapons. If we let him go, he might really summon an Emperor Weapon."

"At that time, it would be troublesome to deal with the Yaoguang Holy Land."

"Dragon-Patterned Black Gold Cauldron... that is a cauldron." Lin Xian was thoughtful, then persuaded: "Senior, try it. He has restrictions deep in his true spirit, I'm afraid it will light a soul lamp in the Yaoguang Holy Land."

"If we attack him, we might have already alerted the enemy."

At this moment, the Old Madman spoke: "Destroying a Holy Land is not such a simple matter. As long as the Yaoguang Holy Land's Emperor Weapon is there, any plan is useless."

"Emperor Weapon, indeed."

The Ji family's old Sage pondered for a moment and sighed. Even holding two Emperor Weapons, he did not have full confidence in leaving the Yaoguang Holy Land.

Once the Dragon-Patterned Black Gold Cauldron revived and took the Yaoguang Holy Son away into the starry sky, it would be another hidden danger.

"Little Ye, when he revives later, you throw this contract out."

Lin Xian summoned Ye Fan and muttered: "Remember, once the extreme aura manifests, you must throw it out."

Ye Fan was stunned and asked uneasily: "Is it useful?"

The others also had strange expressions. Was this simple piece of paper really useful?

"Let's try it."

Lin Xian said indifferently: "If it's useless, just refine his Primordial Spirit. It's not a pity to lose a few taboo chapters; we still have the Nine Secrets."

This was the greatness of the Nine Heavenly Venerables. The taboo chapters of ordinary Great Emperors could only exert their strongest effects when passed to their own descendants or relatives.

However, the Nine Secrets of the Nine Heavenly Venerables were preached to the world, and even ordinary bodies were useful.

If the Nine Heavenly Venerables came to perform them themselves, they would surpass the Great Emperor's taboos.

The Xiaoyao Heavenly Venerable evolved the Xing Zi Mi. Perhaps his combat power was not good, but his speed domain had already touched the immortal path, comparable to a Heavenly Emperor.

The Changsheng Heavenly Venerable was also like this, surviving from the Mythological Era to the present, which could not be explained by just launching a few dark turmoils.

The Emperor's Jie Zi Mi was even more like a cheat. If an ordinary body like Lin Xian equipped it, he could compete with geniuses and Holy Sons.

"Then let's do it!"

The Ji family's old Sage shouted, releasing the Void Mirror's restriction. The Half-Sage's Primordial Spirit began to become active. In just an instant, he summoned the Dragon-Patterned Black Gold Cauldron without hesitation.

Only an Emperor Weapon could contend with an Emperor Weapon. Only by summoning the Dragon-Patterned Black Gold Cauldron could he win a glimmer of life.

The extreme aura surged. The Half-Sage of the Ruthless Lineage's face was incomparably ferocious. The Old Madman took the opportunity to attack him, wanting to read the core secrets deep inside.

"Even if I am destroyed, I won't give it to you!" The Half-Sage roared, his Primordial Spirit blooming with infinite brilliance, wanting to use his body as an altar to summon the invincible Emperor Weapon.

"Ye Fan!" Lin Xian shouted suddenly.

Ye Fan woke up as if from a dream and threw the decree out. The next second, a miracle really happened.

That extreme aura seemed to be smoothed out, and the Emperor Weapon began to sink, no longer responding to the Half-Sage.

"How is this possible!"

The Half-Sage of the Ruthless Lineage said ferociously: "Emperor Ancestor, Emperor Weapon, I am your descendant!"

"Wrong!"

A smile curled at the corner of Lin Xian's mouth, and he said leisurely: "By the order of the Heavens, the Empress decrees: from today on, the Ruthless orthodoxy is no longer under your control."

"I don't believe it!"

The Half-Sage of the Ruthless Lineage roared, actually self-destructing, outlining the Dao patterns of the ghost face mask, wanting to summon the Emperor Weapon again.

The so-called Ruthless legacy was actually the fellow villagers of the Ruthless Great Emperor from years ago, people who had been kind to her, and the descendants of some followers.

In the past, the Ruthless one had left three Emperor Decrees, using the ghost face mask as a token, allowing her to act three times, which were given to three lineages.

The Ruthless orthodoxy once encountered a great enemy, provoked a Supreme, and used one opportunity.

After the orthodoxy was destroyed, some people established the Yaoguang Holy Land and used one opportunity.

And the Dao Protector lineage found the Yaoguang Holy Land lineage. The two sides cooperated and used the last opportunity to sublimate the Dragon-Patterned Black Gold Cauldron into an Emperor Weapon.

The three opportunities were used up, and they could no longer summon the Ruthless Great Emperor. But the Half-Sage was not summoning the Great Emperor, but the Emperor Weapon, so there was still great hope.

Suddenly, the extreme aura splashed. In the Yaoguang Holy Land, a large cauldron roared and shone, seemingly wanting to break through the air.

"Really want to start an Emperor Weapon war." The Ji family's old Sage fixed the void again and shouted: "Destroy his Primordial Spirit and cut off the connection with the Emperor Weapon."

"Wait!"

Only Lin Xian had a flash of inspiration, reached into his arms, and threw a small black paper boat over.

Boom!

The Great Dao was brilliant. The black boat merged with the Emperor Weapon's aura, actually turning black into white, crossing billions of years of time, looking brand new, blooming with brilliance, as if it had just been folded not long ago. On it was a line of words, bright and dripping, flowing with strange colors. This was a line of blood words.

"Only I am left..."

Rising with the wind, passing with the river, as if a woman was sighing, coming faintly from the ancient years, carrying sadness, carrying sorrow, and a kind of loneliness, making people tremble, their hearts stirred.

Everyone's hair stood on end, their blood flowed backward, and they felt incomparably cold. Who said this?

Could it be that the Great Emperor was still alive!

"How is it possible?" The Half-Sage of the Ruthless Lineage fell in the brilliance, muttering: "Emperor Ancestor, I am your descendant..."

"Wrong!"

Lin Xian said indifferently, holding the white paper boat in one hand and pointing at Ye Fan with the other, calmly saying: "I am the Ruthless Dao Master!"
