I Have Countless Past-life Identities
Chapter 309 - 138: Only One True Self Under Heaven! The Army Sweeps Wutong Prefecture, Nirvana Corpse’s Hidden Dangers, All Clues Revealed!
"I’ve heard that outside of Great Zhao, such as Jiangnan Great Jin, or even in the prosperous Eastern Land, there are Grotto Heavens entering the world. Yet on the Northwest Land..."
"A hundred years ago, their entrances were suppressed by the ’Great Demon Hunter Master,’ and none have manifested since."
"If this ’Celestial Abyss’ is something akin to a Grotto Heaven, it should be dealt with by the top entities of the Great Zhao Official Mansion, but..."
Jixia hesitated, unfinished.
Because in today’s Baoping State, Great Zhao and demons are in a fierce conflict, even if a Great Power crosses the state, they are at the front line, not wasting manpower to handle the Celestial Abyss here.
"You don’t need to worry."
"If the sky falls, there’s someone tall to hold it up; soldiers come to block them, water to cover them."
"Even if, stepping back for ten thousand paces, a ’Song Chai Xin’ really walks out alive, what of it?"
"Your current rebirth is no different, and by abandoning past troubles, you can ascend like Fuyao, cultivate anew to the third, fourth step, without inviting envy from others."
Tantai Yao stood up, patting Jixia’s shoulder, offering comfort.
Jixia nodded in response. That’s what he thought, but... if the ’Immortal Nirvana True Monarch’ really recreated him with his flesh, he would not be pleased.
Moreover...
In his mind, he envisioned an introspection.
Looking at the first page of the ’Reincarnation Celestial Book,’ engraved with the ’Recollections of a Half-Demon Prefecture Venerable.’
Jixia had a vague feeling that if the day really came, perhaps...
He could dispose of the ’himself.’
That was a ’backhand’ he left for himself back then.
Amid their conversation.
Suddenly, three ’Zhenren Level’ anomalies descended from the horizon! 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞
’Nine-Curves Coiling Dragon Spear,’ ’Profound Iron Heavy Sword,’ ’Lightning Strike Wood’...
When Tantai Yao perceived the ’Zhenren Level’ magical power fluctuations, not inferior to his own, and even surpassing by much, suddenly descending, he was greatly shocked:
"Where have these high beings come from?"
Upon hearing this, Jixia’s eyes narrowed, sensing the three familiar ’anomalies,’ he abruptly stood up and murmured:
"Uncle, this is precisely what I mentioned to you, coming from Black Mountain..."
Before he finished speaking, Tantai Yao suddenly understood:
"The previous Baoping Grand General, the previous Master of Xuanbing Cave, and the former Gu Family Ancestor?"
At this moment, the mountain was in turmoil.
When the disciples of Zither Sword Mountain and the coalition of Wutong Prefecture saw people stepping into the air, they felt uneasy.
A Primordial Pill ’Nirvana Corpse’ emerged from the Celestial Abyss, leading them by raising True Qi, publicly announcing the origins of the three!
Instantly, it took everyone’s breath away, those who were unaware of the ’secrets’ among the coalition forces!
Three True Masters!
Along with... the one on Zither Sword Mountain who had just broken through, making four in total!
This, what more do they need to fight for!
The Xuanqing Demon Monarch in Wutong Prefecture, unless possessing three heads and six arms,
Otherwise,
Could he withstand the assault of four True Masters??
Upon hearing the commotion, and through Jixia’s explanation, Tantai Yao stepped over the threshold and looked up!
Indeed,
he saw the Dragon-slaying Marquis wielding an Illusory Coiling Dragon Spear, the Master of Xuanbing Cave holding a Profound Iron Heavy Sword, and the Gu Family Ancestor bearing a piece of Lightning Strike Wood, setting foot on the ’obscure’ Zither Sword Mountain!
"Are you Tantai True Master?" the Dragon-slaying Marquis’s cloak flapped, his brow solemn and imposing.
"Might you be the former Baoping Grand General from sixty years ago?" Tantai Yao asked without arrogance or inferiority, standing in the mountain, gazing skyward.
Meanwhile, scrutinizing the two ’Dao Lineage, Aristocratic Family’ level Elders beside him, his eyes flickered, deep in thought.
Indeed,
upon these people’s bodies...
He could genuinely sense no ’Divinity’ present!
The human body’s three treasures ’Essence, Qi, and Spirit,’ with Essence and Qi representing the physical body and True Qi Magical Power, are the foundation of cultivation.
But ’Spirit’ is Divine Thought, the Divine Soul, the root of cultivation!
Just like the question of ’Can a person live without a heart,’ can one live without Spirit?
This is a paradox!
But these three... including several Primordial Pill Masters, lacked ’Spirit’!
In Tantai Yao’s eyes, it was simply unbelievable.
"Indeed, the three of us were trapped in Black Mountain for sixty years, only breaking through to hear of Baoping’s upheaval. How dare the fiends wreak havoc upon the land!"
"Now that Baoping State’s situation is as precarious as a pile of eggs, logically, this marquis should emerge again to cleanse the ills!"
"When will the army directly point at Wutong Prefecture?"
"Once Wutong Prefecture is pacified, we shall immediately head to Baoping State to put things right!"
This speech was dignified and righteous, fully exhibiting the style of a State Demon Hunter General and Marquis Wu.
If not for knowing the ’causes and effects,’ Tantai Yao might have truly believed those before him were the once undamaged Demon Hunter Generals.
But...
Through Jixia’s explanation.
Upon another look,
it was apparent... these three True Masters were once the ’heroes dominating a state’!?!
Merely, puppets of flesh and wisdom!
They sent chills down the spine at the mere sight!
"With the help of you three, naturally, it can happen anytime." Though fully aware, he displayed no sign outwardly.
Thus, Tantai Yao spoke without revealing anything.
"If so, time is precious. A mere Jing River Dragon Court’s ’fourth step’ branch, not the Master of the Dragon Court, nor an Elder, can be dispelled with a snap of the fingers!"
"Attack!"
In an instant,
the True Master’s decree descended with Tantai Yao’s approval.
The mountain resonated with thunderous roars!
Banners fluttered like a long rainbow, immediately heading to assault Wutong Prefecture!
...
As the four True Masters swept from all directions upon Wutong,
the previously untroubled, highly conceited Xuanqing Demon Monarch Gu Hua practically fell off his bed, hearing the news, his eyes nearly popping out:
