Chapter 401: Meeting is worse than not meeting

"The God King's Pure Land, this is the God King's manifestation!"

"Heavens, he couldn't really be the God King, how is this possible!"

"Four thousand years, four thousand years! If he really is the God King, wouldn't he have become a Saint!"

"Pay respects to the God King!"

……

Once the God King's manifestation appeared, the high-level figures of the Taichu Sacred Land had no choice but to believe it.

This thing simply could not be faked.

They were both shocked and excited; this was the peerless God King from four thousand years ago.

It seemed that the four thousand years of time had not left any traces on him; he was still fluttering in white, peerless in grace.

"No need for formalities."

The Taichu Sacred Lord went personally to invite Fairy Caiyun, while the other elders remained to keep him company, unable to suppress their curiosity as they asked about what had happened over these four thousand years.

"The mausoleum of the Wushi Great Emperor!"

Clearly, the lesson of the Qing Emperor's mausoleum had not made them remember.

"Purple Mountain, that is a demon mountain; how many people have gone in and never come out!"

"Good, good, good!"

Upon hearing this, everyone could not help but exclaim aloud:

In terms of prestige, the Wushi Great Emperor was far above the Qing Emperor; he was a truly invincible figure who traversed the world and had never encountered anyone who could exchange more than three moves with him.

Since it was the Great Emperor's mausoleum, there must surely be the inheritance left behind by the Great Emperor, or even Emperor-level artifacts.

Afterwards, he followed the crowd to the main hall of the Taichu Sacred Land, and soon someone served spirit tea and spirit fruits.

"God King, who saved you?"

The Taichu Sacred Lord naturally knew of the romance between Jiang Taixu and Fairy Caiyun, so he hurriedly said: "Reporting to the God King, the Ancestor is still here. Please enter the hall and wait a moment; I will go and invite the Ancestor now."

……

Proving the Dao all the way, with almost no setbacks.

Jiang Taixu was extremely excited, and his anxious heart finally settled.

"No wonder there was no news of the God King for four thousand years; it turns out he was trapped in Purple Mountain!"

Everyone exclaimed, their eyes shining.

Jiang Taixu waved his hand, and he asked again, anxiously: "Is Caiyun still here?"

Facing everyone's inquiries, Jiang Taixu could not remain silent and could only say simply: "Purple Mountain is the resting place of the Ancient Race; they are waiting for the opening of the Immortal Road, and at the same time, it is also the mausoleum of the Wushi Great Emperor."

Jiang Taixu sighed: "Back then, I relied on a moment of courage and went to Purple Mountain to explore, but accidentally fell into the schemes of the evil thoughts of the Ancient Race's powerhouses, trapped deep within Purple Mountain until now. Fortunately, I received help from someone and managed to escape alive by luck."

"God King, what is inside Purple Mountain?"

Seeing this, Jiang Taixu hurriedly warned: "Purple Mountain has the Ancient Race sleeping within; they were the overlords of the Big Dipper Star Domain during the Primordial Era, and among them are many Saints. You must not act rashly."

Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions finally turned solemn.

There is still a gap between Sacred Lands; just like how the Yaochi Sacred Land and the Yaoguang Sacred Land both have Emperor-level artifacts, but the Taichu Sacred Land does not. This shows that the Taichu Sacred Land has never produced a Great Emperor.

Not having produced a Great Emperor means there is no ability to refine divine sources, and no way to seal some of their heritage until now.

Like the Jiang family, the Ji family, and the Yaochi Sacred Land, they all have Saints, or even Saint Kings, sealed within divine sources.

But the Taichu Sacred Land definitely does not.

Therefore, facing Saint-level powerhouses, they are also powerless.

……

Deep within the Taichu Sacred Land, on a certain high peak.

An old woman leaning on a cane looked far into the distance at Jiang Taixu in the high sky, tears flowing silently down.

She was Fairy Caiyun, the Saintess of the Taichu Sacred Land from back then.

"Brother Taixu, I'm sorry, I cannot see you."

"I already have gray hair, while you are in your prime; I cannot let you see what I look like now."

"Let my beauty remain in your heart forever."

Fairy Caiyun murmured softly, reluctantly withdrawing her gaze, turning to walk into an ancient bamboo building.

She walked with a limp, tears spilling all the way.

Four thousand years of time is truly too long; if not for a fortuitous encounter back then, she might have long since turned into a handful of yellow soil.

But even if she has lingered until now, she does not have many years of life left.

Even if she met Brother Taixu, so what?

She could not accept seeing her beloved in this appearance, nor could she accept leaving in a few years, leaving her beloved heartbroken.

Since that is the case, then meeting is worse than not meeting.

Not long after, the Taichu Sacred Lord came to invite her, but Fairy Caiyun only said one sentence: "I do not want to see him."

……

Main Hall.

Watching the Taichu Sacred Lord return, Jiang Taixu's expression changed slightly, and he hurriedly asked: "Where is Caiyun?"

The Taichu Sacred Lord sighed: "The Ancestor said she does not want to see you."

"How is that possible!"

Jiang Taixu's eyes widened, his figure swaying involuntarily, and he painfully muttered to himself: "Why, why, why does she not want to see me? Back then, when I was trapped deep in Purple Mountain, I didn't foresee it either."

The Taichu Sacred Lord hurriedly said: "God King, you are a bystander who is confused. You have disappeared for four thousand years; these four thousand years might not have changed anything for you, but Ancestor Caiyun has grown old, and her time is running out. This junior dares to guess that she likely does not wish for you to see her current appearance, so I hope the God King can understand."

"Is this true?"

"It is true!"

Jiang Taixu immediately said excitedly: "This matter is simple; I will go and seek a divine pill for her now. I was trapped in Purple Mountain for four thousand years and was also on the verge of exhaustion; it was only after taking a divine pill that I recovered like this."

"Even if it is an Undying Divine Medicine, I can seek one for her."

"You go and tell Caiyun that I am going to seek a divine pill for her now to help her restore her youth and lifespan; tell her to wait for me."

After speaking, he turned and transformed into a stream of light, flying away.

"Divine pill, Undying Divine Medicine!"

The Taichu Sacred Lord whispered, his eyes shining slightly.

He had previously suspected that Jiang Taixu was already a Saint, which is why he was still in his prime after four thousand years.

But now it seems that is not the case.

Nowadays, the Great Dao is not manifest, and cultivation is exceptionally difficult; the second layer of the Immortal Terrace is basically the limit, and wanting to cut the Dao is extremely difficult, let alone becoming a Saint.

Then it makes perfect sense that Jiang Taixu took a divine pill to restore his youth and lifespan.

If Jiang Taixu can really obtain a divine pill and make Ancestor Caiyun return to her youth, then their Taichu Sacred Land might be able to add another Dao-Cutting King in the future.

Ancestor Caiyun is at the peak of the second layer of the Immortal Terrace, and her foundation is deep enough.

If not for the decline of her blood and energy and the aging of her life, perhaps she would have already cut the Dao and become a King.

Not only that, Jiang Taixu also revealed a piece of information—Undying Divine Medicine.

It is very clear that Jiang Taixu's divine pill was obtained from the person who saved him, and that person even possesses Undying Divine Medicine.

Undying Divine Medicine is almost a legend in the Big Dipper Star Domain.

All the major Sacred Lands, Desolate Ancient Families, and Divine Dynasties do not have Undying Divine Medicine, but now it actually belongs to an individual.

Who exactly is that person?

……

By the banks of the Jiang River, the Jiang family.

When Jiang Taixu returned to the Jiang family, the Jiang family members were all stunned, even suspecting that the person in front of them was a liar.

Jiang Taixu did not waste words and directly used his methods to trigger the family's Emperor-level artifact, the Sun Divine Furnace.

The Sun Divine Furnace revived, and the Emperor's might spread, shocking the entire Jiang family.

Many old antiques who were two or three thousand years old also emerged one after another.

Soon, the Jiang family was in an uproar.

"Hahaha, the God King has returned, the God King has returned!"

"Heavens, disappeared for four thousand years, the God King has actually returned; this is simply a miracle."

"The God King is so young, just like the way he looked when he left back then; how did he do it? Could it be that he has already become a Saint?"

"Hahaha, with the God King's return, my Jiang family will flourish once again!" ===== CHAPTER 402 =====
