Chapter 863

"Visit relatives, Little Lu?" Seeing Yun Mengmeng walking along and talking about the Second-in-Command, the Guiyuan Heavenly Venerable's first reaction was that Yun Mengmeng had come to the Wendao Sect to find Lu Yang.

"No, it's Little Zhi—oh, her full name is Yun Zhi. She's my good sister and also the Second-in-Command's Senior Sister. She's especially strong."

"Especially strong? Stronger than you?" The Guiyuan Heavenly Venerable was surprised. Lu Yang's Senior Sister—isn't she still a disciple of the Wendao Sect, not even at the Elder level? How could she deserve the evaluation of "especially strong"?

"Stronger than you, too."

"Oh, is she very strong?" The Guiyuan Heavenly Venerable didn't like hearing this.

He had always believed that strength and realm did not have an absolute relationship. Whether one is strong or weak, one only knows after fighting. Ten thousand years ago, when he challenged Jiang Ping'an, who had already become an Immortal, that was the principle.

Regardless of the outcome of the battle, the most important thing was to persist in one's own philosophy.

Ten thousand years ago, he also wanted to challenge Meng Junzi, who had also become an Immortal, but unfortunately, Meng Junzi did not accept the challenge.

Although Meng Junzi insisted at the time that he had not become an Immortal and was only a Half-Immortal, and that he was disheartened after losing to Jiang Ping'an and would no longer fight.

The Guiyuan Heavenly Venerable didn't believe Meng Junzi's nonsense.

If you are disheartened, shouldn't you go out, play the pig to eat the tiger, and regain your confidence? What's the deal with staying at home every day? Are you, Meng Junzi, that kind of person?

Meng Junzi must have become an Immortal and was brewing some evil plan to trick people.

Thinking this through, the Guiyuan Heavenly Venerable stopped pestering Meng Junzi.

"Ancestor, calm down, calm down. You really can't beat Senior Sister. Even Ancestor Han Hai lost." Lu Yang hurriedly tried to dissuade him. Ancestor Guiyuan had already been unlucky enough being struck and blasted after coming out of the box; he couldn't afford any more accidents.

"You condensed the embryonic form of the Space Dao Fruit, and you still couldn't beat that junior named Yun Zhi?" The Guiyuan Heavenly Venerable turned his head to ask.

"I couldn't beat her." The Han Hai Daoist admitted it generously. Ever since he and Ao Ya became Dao companions, he had opened his mind. Losing to Yun Zhi was not a shameful thing; there was no need to take it to heart.

"Where is Yun Zhi? I'm going to meet her."

"Little Zhi has gone out, but calculating the time, she should be back soon." Yun Mengmeng answered every question.

Lu Yang thought to himself, Sister Mengmeng, please don't add fuel to the fire. Why are you telling the Ancestor that Senior Sister is coming back?

"Ancestor, we still have acquaintances we haven't met yet." Lu Yang hurriedly changed the subject to attract the Guiyuan Heavenly Venerable's attention.

"There's more?"

"Actually, our sect has quite a few Half-Immortals. It's not just three Half-Immortals in one sect. There are acquaintances of yours among them."

"Is that so? Let's go see." The Guiyuan Heavenly Venerable was indeed interested by what Lu Yang said.

Then he was led by Lu Yang further and further away, until he saw a very familiar place—Prison Peak.

The Child Master noticed Lu Yang coming and stood up with a smile to welcome him: "Little Lu, you're here. Who did you catch this time... Gui-Gui-Gui-Guiyuan Ancestor?!"

Did you catch the founding ancestor too? No, what am I thinking?

Prison Peak had never had so many guests: Yun Mengmeng, Dai Bufan, the Innate Daoist, Meng Jingzhou, and the Han Hai Daoist filed in.

True Person Zhuiyue could not leave the Snowy Mountain and could not come.

The Han Hai Daoist walked at the end of the line. He had finally managed to take the Innate Daoist as his master and keep his seniority, but with the return of the Guiyuan Heavenly Venerable, he had become the second oldest again.

I, a dignified ancestor of the revival, is it so hard to be number one in the Wendao Sect?

"Guiyuan, you're still alive?"

The Guiyuan Heavenly Venerable heard a familiar voice and couldn't remember who the other person was for a moment. He followed the voice and found an acquaintance who surprised him quite a bit.

"Void?"

Void Supreme, a Half-Immortal from the end of the Great Yu Dynasty, one of the overlords of the continent, defeated by Jiang Ping'an and Meng Junzi.

The Guiyuan Heavenly Venerable was stunned when he saw the Void Supreme. It was indeed an acquaintance, but the problem was that this acquaintance was someone he couldn't find even if he wanted to eighty thousand years ago. How is it that he is now locked up in Prison Peak?!

"Si Lei!" The Divine Lord of Sichen saw the Divine Lord of Thunder being dragged like a dead dog and, ignoring the rule that loud noise was not allowed in Prison Peak, cried out.

Hearing someone calling him, the Divine Lord of Thunder opened his eyes in a daze and saw the long-missing Divine Lord of Sichen.

"Sichen, why are you here?"

The Divine Lord of Sichen shed tears. This is nonsense; can't you see that I've been caught?

Meng Jingzhou saw that the two Divine Lords had a deep bond and were sincere, so he handed the Divine Lord of Thunder to the Child Master, letting the two Divine Lords be neighbors in Prison Peak.

The prisoners of Prison Peak were slightly agitated. It's Lu Yang again, catching another Half-Immortal.

Duan Qingshui and Mo Xiaochou, who had been caught from the Buddha Kingdom, had the biggest reactions. They had the lowest cultivation and had arrived at Prison Peak the latest, so they hadn't witnessed the process of Prison Peak gradually growing stronger.

Now they were witnessing it.

One learns more in Prison Peak than in the outside world.

"Master, I caught a mid-stage Great Qian cultivator on the way." Yun Zhi's voice came from outside Prison Peak.

Everyone turned their heads in unison and saw Yun Zhi dragging a strange cultivator into Prison Peak. She was slightly surprised to notice so many people looking at her.

However, she didn't think much of it until she saw the Guiyuan Heavenly Venerable standing at the very front. Only then did she have a clear reaction; she threw the strange cultivator to the ground and bowed with her hands crossed.

"Junior Yun Zhi greets Ancestor Guiyuan."

"You are Yun Zhi?" The Guiyuan Heavenly Venerable looked her up and down. Her cultivation base was bottomless, and she felt stronger than Yun Mengmeng.

No wonder she was evaluated as "especially strong" by Yun Mengmeng.

"I heard you are very strong?"

"How can I be called very strong? Ancestor, you flatter me; it's just mutual praise between acquaintances."

"Whether it's praise or not, we'll know once we try!"

"How would I dare to fight with the Ancestor? If I accidentally hurt the Ancestor, I would feel guilty."

The Guiyuan Heavenly Venerable was so angry he laughed when he heard this: "I want to see how you intend to hurt me!"

Yun Zhi saw that the Guiyuan Heavenly Venerable's fighting spirit was set and feared she couldn't avoid it. She sighed lightly: "Since that is the case, I shouldn't dampen the Ancestor's spirits. It's just that Prison Peak is narrow, and I fear I won't be able to stretch my arms and legs. I ask the Ancestor to move to the outside world."

"Good!"

Considering the Guiyuan Heavenly Venerable's cultivation, Yun Zhi invited him to the depths of the Wendao Sect, where mountains stretched endlessly and they could fight to their hearts' content.

Everyone crowded over to join in the fun.

"Battle armor, come!" The Guiyuan Heavenly Venerable shouted. The blood-stained battle armor, which had been placed in the main hall and enjoyed the offerings of incense, heard its master's call and flew over.

This was the Guiyuan Heavenly Venerable's battle armor and also one of the foundations of the Wendao Sect. An Integration stage cultivator wearing this armor could rival a Tribulation Transcendence stage cultivator; it was incomparably powerful.

The Guiyuan Heavenly Venerable put on the battle armor, as if he had returned to those war-torn years ten thousand years ago.

"Ancestor, please."

"Let me strike first? What an arrogant junior!"

The Guiyuan Heavenly Venerable stomped his foot, and the earth cracked. He merged with the earth, transforming into a giant that could summon wind and rain!

He merged with the earth, and as long as he stood on it, he would have a continuous stream of power; this move had caused the Divine Lord of Thunder endless trouble!

Yun Zhi jumped up lightly, yet she was ten thousand zhang high. She was expressionless, her jade hand clenched into a fist, and the golden bell tied to her wrist tinkled.

Bang!

The fist hammered into the giant's chest, and the giant slowly fell, crumbling into pieces.

The Guiyuan Heavenly Venerable returned to his original size, lying on the ground with dull eyes.

So strong; he couldn't beat her.

He recalled the glorious years of ten thousand years ago. In that era, he fought bloody battles, broke through one after another in combat, and became a world-renowned master, also laying the foundation for the later establishment of the Five Great Immortal Sects' system.

At that time, he called friends and companions, defeated countless impossible enemies, and was so high-spirited.

Was he going to shrink back here in the face of a junior?

No!

The Guiyuan Heavenly Venerable flipped up like a sparrow.

Since he couldn't beat Yun Zhi, they would attack together.

"Han Hai, come and assist me!"

"Huh? Oh." Although he didn't know what the Guiyuan Heavenly Venerable wanted to do, it was, after all, the Ancestor's word, so he had to listen.

The Han Hai Daoist honestly arrived at the battlefield and saw the fiery fighting spirit in the Guiyuan Heavenly Venerable's eyes.

The two, both ancestors of the Wendao Sect, had a tacit understanding at this moment. Without needing to speak, they understood each other's meaning. The Han Hai Daoist felt a fire in his heart, and hope was rekindled!

They were going to defeat Yun Zhi and regain the dignity of their elders!

"Unity!"

The Guiyuan Heavenly Venerable activated the embryonic form of his Unity Dao Fruit and merged with the Han Hai Daoist!

The two Half-Immortals merged into one, power surged, and their realm soared to an incredible degree!

The Han Hai Daoist had long heard of the Guiyuan Heavenly Venerable's methods, but only today did he deeply realize what a powerful method this was!

Now, they felt they were omnipotent!

This was the power of unity, the power of cooperation!

When everyone is of one mind, they can cut through metal; as long as they are united, there is no enemy they cannot defeat!

The Guiyuan Heavenly Venerable often encountered enemies he could not defeat, but he was never alone; he had companions he could trust and entrust his back to!

"Yun Zhi, don't worry about our status; strike with all your might..."

"Cloud-Falling Palm."

The clouds above turned into the shape of a palm. The cloud palm descended, piercing through layers of void, and fell straight down.

Boom—

The smoke and dust dissipated, the unity was undone, and the two ancestors lay in the center of a large crater, their eyes dull.
