I Have Countless Past-life Identities-Chapter 165 - 91: Jixia Borrows Power, Rattles the Mountain to Startle the Tiger, Requests to See the Contemporary Black Mountain Guardian

Outside the house, the sound of Ji Han's urgent fists pounding, like rain falling.

But Jixia's expression, due to Tantai Yao's remarkable 'earth-shattering' words, was completely stunned on the spot, unable to recover for a long time.

The image of Song Brahman Mirror gradually emerged in his mind, becoming increasingly clear.

Making Jixia at this moment, still disbelief.

She...

Could she truly become a Supreme Demon Monarch decades later?

"But her father was the previous Yunluan Sword Master, how could she have demonic blood?"

Jixia stood up, compelled by the disturbances outside to react.

Yet he couldn't help but ask Tantai Yao. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

And Tantai Yao, in front of him, wearing gray robes, glanced at him, shook his weary face and sighed:

"Kid, your life's trajectory resembles mine when I left the Zither Sword Pavilion years ago."

"We might indeed be destined."

First, he sneered at himself.

Immediately afterward, Tantai Yao's broad palm patted Jixia's shoulder:

"Even in Tongye State, I've never heard much about the ins and outs; you must ask your grandfather, Xie Qiaoxuan."

"He's in the whirlpool, knowing much more than I do."

"As for Song Brahman Mirror... Her biological father, 'Song Yuan', ventured to the 'True Master Barrier' two decades ago, but little about her mother's information was revealed."

"Interestingly, around the time of your fall, the Great Snow Mountain Fox Ancestor inexplicably attacked Yunluan Mountain, nearly killing Song Yuan; this point deserves 'inference'."

"After all, the Great Snow Mountain Fox Ancestor entering 'Baoping State' was still reasonable, aiming to reclaim the status of demon lineages and Divine Blood nobility."

"But why traverse thousands of miles deep into Baoping's heartland, to the junction of Wutong and Shunan Prefecture, to Yunluan Mountain?"

"In my youth, I heard rumors about Song Yuan, this Yunluan Sword Master ventured solo, having only one daughter, preserving chastity for his late wife and earning the title 'Unwavering Loyalty'."

"But I never heard about his wife ever appearing in public places; if she wasn't human but demon, then it makes sense..."

"Moreover, don't worry about the threat from the Guardian Mansion; anyhow, that small Great Innate was killed by me, what does it have to do with you?"

"Ten years ago, I might've feared the government's impact, but now..."

Tantai Yao's empty sleeves fluttered, his whole body laden with twilight.

Causing Jixia to frown, temporarily suppressing the urge to delve into Song Brahman Mirror, he shifted, somewhat worriedly, to Tantai Yao:

"A Primordial Pill Martial Artist, Qi condensing into a pill, extending life to two hundred; once achieved, locking in vitality and blood, preventing loss, still battling prime Martial Artists even in old age."

"Even my grandfather Xie Qiaoxuan is still alive, not falling yet."

"Uncle, to you, a mere several decades have passed; typically at eighty or ninety, meets the peak state of a Primordial Pill Martial Artist, at the most fearless moment, why...?"

With a singular arm, he removed the outer barriers; as he strode toward the Cyan Stone Lane outside the courtyard, Tantai Yao spoke:

"Firstly, understand that my return isn't revisiting, dressed in glory."

"But looking again at Zither Sword Mountain, then find a place, to bear my burial tomb."

"Some matters are too far for you, even if said, you mightn't comprehend."

"Between the third and fourth step, there's a barrier."

"If your talent doesn't belong to the dynasty-cutting 'kingly' type...most rely on external factors to overcome this barrier."

"This barrier, everyone calls it 'Heaven-Striking Sect', taken from 'carp leaping over the dragon gate'."

"Some can use Dao Lineage class 'Martial Arts Celestial Form', heart replacing heaven's heart, force proving Dao, violently breaking open this barrier."

"Others use Celestial Human Dao Pill to protect Dao as an aid, sneaking up, cunningly practicing successfully."

"Some families remarkably renowned, from the Grotto Heaven Era three hundred years ago, containing secret techniques, treasures providing seclusion, achieving True Master."

"But should the above conditions not exist, yet one reaches the third step's pinnacle, unable to advance, no way out..."

"Great Zhao's government can access 'Divine Capital', enter three great treasure grounds, seeking a single promotion opportunity."

"While in Jianghu..."

"Entering the Life and Death Barrier, competing, between life and death, to strike open the 'Celestial Gate'!"

"Between Baoping State and Tongye State, lies the 'Ten Extremes Pass'."

"Inside 'Ten Extremes Pass', routinely gather masters from all sides, seeking the 'fourth step' breakthrough."

"This time limit varies from ten to several tens of years, all depends when the 'Ten Extremes Pass Master' has the leisure."

"Annually, every session, fewer with a dozen, more with dozens, these third-step pinnacle experts, sign the Life and Death Contract, enter pass, each striving for this slight chance."

"Not battling through bloodshed, striking the top Celestial Gate, breaking life and death, advancing to True Master and transmitting out."

"Or battling inside Ten Extremes Pass for seven days, becoming the last standing one."

"By perfecting 'vitality, spirit, and mind', attaining the knife-axe honor from Ten Extremes Pass Master, the victor of champions gains the perception of 'Ten Extremes Pass Master' True Master's path qualification!"

"Breaking 'life and death' shackles, this mysterious, scarcely few entering Ten Extremes Pass pursue this."
