"Reporting to the Patriarch, it still won’t work... The anti-evil power within my blood cannot be stimulated to the level I desire."

Li Yunxiao shook his head.

The middle-aged man asked, "What about Tan Qingxue?"

Li Yunxiao replied, "She means to postpone the engagement until after the Forging Techniques Conference. She’s actively preparing, seemingly wanting to make an impression at the conference... Additionally, she is very interested in the Nine Revolutions Dantian Technique, indirectly asking me about it multiple times."

The middle-aged man nodded, "This woman is quite key. With her help, your chances of stimulating the anti-evil power increase, which is crucial for your competition for the position of the holy son. You must pay attention... Have you met her so-called former husband?"

Li Yunxiao said, "I tried, but that Li An is already a cripple, not far from death."

The middle-aged man pondered, "Kill him!"

Li Yunxiao was surprised, "Master, there’s no need for that, is there? That person won’t live for a few years anyway, why bother taking action? Besides, he’s at Mystic Turtle Peak, making it extremely difficult to act..."

The middle-aged man said, "He may die, but you can’t afford to wait."

"To obtain the legendary Evil Suppressing Bloodline, even with Tan Qingxue’s help, you both must be in perfect harmony, without any flaws. With Li An alive, it might have some impact."

"I tried, and suggested she file for divorce last time; she resolutely agreed. I think she has no attachment to this person..."

The middle-aged man said, "I inquired about this. The entanglement between Li An and Tan Qingxue runs deep. Before entering the Dao Sect, she even gave him a Top Grade Nascent Soul Pill. Her current agreement to your affairs might just be to seek the Nine Revolutions Dantian Technique, to pave a future for that Li An."

"After all, the Nine Revolutions Dantian Technique is derived from the Evil King’s Heaven-Stealing Skill; it is the only righteous method available now to repair the dantian. If she has no such need, why ask about it? You should think about it!"

"This..." Li Yunxiao was somewhat shaken.

"Give her the Nine Revolutions Dantian Skill to gain her favor while killing Li An. This way, there can be no mistakes."

The middle-aged man spoke indifferently.

"But how to act against Mystic Turtle Peak?"

"Why act personally? Help in the dark is enough. This insignificant Li An has many entanglements, not only with Tan Qingxue but with others as well... hehe."

...

Heroic Sword Peak.

"I want you to challenge Xiang Yuntian now, defeat him, destroy him."

In a cave isolated by an array, an old man shouted angrily, looking at a young man, "Why aren’t you going?"

The young man, dressed in ragged, patched clothes, was casually flipping through a Sword Scripture, a grass stalk in his mouth. Hearing this, he looked up and said, "His Sword Intent is growing; what’s the point of challenging him now?"

"Wouldn’t that be an unworthy victory?"

The old man angrily said, "He walks a path of combining righteousness and evil. Do you know how terrifying he would be if he grows? By then, he’ll be your greatest threat..."

"Threats are good. Being too invincible on the Sword Dao can be lonely, can it not?"

"Your arrogance will be your downfall!"

"Your petty scheming will be mine!"

The young man suddenly closed the book in his hand, spat out the grass stalk, and said, "Do you know why you’re only second on Heroic Sword Peak?"

"It’s because you’re calculating, not pure, and too dark!"

"Why has the Peak Master reached such heights? Because his vision is vast and he’s sincere to the Sword Dao."

"You’ve failed so badly; what qualification do you have to guide my life with your failed perception?"

The old man was stunned by these words, both angry and furious, pointing at the young man, "You, you..."

"Don’t bother with me anymore."

The young man turned and walked away.

"Where are you going? The Forging Techniques Conference is upon us, and you’re not properly preparing?!"

"This Evil Sword Monarch’s work will be useful for Xiang Yuntian; I’m going to give it to him..."

"You... you!!"

The young man left, and the old man was so infuriated he nearly coughed up blood, sitting there, almost hatefully.

"No, Can Ye is too arrogant... I must think of something, or else this First Sword Intent might soon change hands!"

He gritted his teeth and said, "You accuse me of petty scheming, but how could you know, throughout history, in the realm of Sword Dao only the first is acknowledged. Without the throne of first, how would you seize that heaven-defying opportunity..."

After a long time.

Two other people arrived.

Dai Xiongtian, Luo Zijie.

"Master,"

The two respectfully saluted.

The old man nodded and said, "Xiongtian, Zijie, there is something I need you two to handle..."

...

Time flew by.

In the blink of an eye, five years passed.

A full cycle of sixty years has passed, and this year, the Dao Sect’s grand event—the Forging Techniques Conference, is to be held this year.

The sect is already bustling, even the Mystic Turtle Peak has opened early, providing the sect’s members a final sprint opportunity!

Zhan Qingxuan still hasn’t come, but Xiang Yuntian and his disciples have.

Over the years, Xiang Yuntian’s cultivation has broken through to the Late-Stage Nascent Soul, very powerful. While drinking with Li An, he suddenly whispered, "Recently, An Li heard some news that this time, in the Celestial Performance Dao Realm, even the Heaven-Stealing Skill will appear."

"This cultivation technique can heal the Dantian!"

Li An was surprised, while Xiang Yuntian said, "I’ll try to find it for you."

They left immediately.

Heaven-Seizing Technique? Li An couldn’t help but smile; he already possessed such a thing, why trouble Xiang Yuntian to help...

"Hmm?"

After Xiang Yuntian left, Li An scanned the area and noticed that Dai Xiongtian and Luo Zijie had also arrived.

However, neither of them glanced at Li An, instead approaching Xu Wanshou, consulting about something.

Recalling the last incident, Li An inexplicably felt uneasy.

...

Three months later, the Celestial Performance Dao Realm officially formed.

The entire Dao Sect is eagerly anticipating this event, from Peak Masters and elders to ordinary disciples, all looking forward to this grand meeting.

In fact, this is a globally anticipated event in the Spirit Realm, with all parties eager to know about the newly developed techniques from the Dao Sect.

On this day.

Xu Wanshou gathered all the prisoners held at Mystic Turtle Peak.

Xun Dongfang, Evil Fourteen, Lin Xianxian, Tuoba Wanchong, Witch Lady, Li An.

"Today, you’ll enter the Celestial Performance Dao Realm. This is the Heaven-Acting Order; wearing it allows your spirit to enter and exit the Celestial Performance Dao Realm while your physical body remains motionless."

"The Celestial Performance Dao Realm forms a world of its own; it is not an illusion! Everything your spirit experiences inside will reflect on your physical body. Battles will cause injuries, injuries will cause pain, and even death is possible! This stone token is your key to entry and acts as a shield to keep your body alive by separating spirit and body."

"You must wear it properly, for if it falls midway, its isolating effect becomes useless – got it?"

The crowd nodded.

Xu Wanshou distributed the tokens to everyone—

After receiving their tokens, they all tucked them into their clothes and closed their eyes, heading for the Celestial Performance Dao Realm—

Li An carefully examined his token and, finding no issues, cautiously put it in his shoe before closing his eyes—

A faint white light, hovering between reality and illusion, shone onto his Spirit Platform—
