Remould the Glory of Sword Art-Chapter 1253 - 164: Borrowing a Tao Talisman

Taoist sect.

Tianyuan Mountain.

Suddenly, a great wind sweeps across.

Countless talismans rise with the clouds and smoke, ascending to the sky.

The young woman sitting at the bottom of the "Talisman Well" in the center of the Heavenly Origin Secret Realm slowly lifts her head, gazing at the spectacular scene of the clouds parting above, with a look of contemplation.

The last time such anomalies appeared on Tianyuan Mountain...

...was half a year ago.

"Could it be that the Sect Leader elder brother has returned?!"

Not far from Deng Baiyi, a small head suddenly emerges from a large stone.

True Master Jun Shan watches this scene, his expression tense.

In the past six months.

Most of the top fighting force of the Taoist sect has gone to the Northern Border Great Wall to battle against the cultivators of the Demon Country.

But he remained on Tianyuan Mountain.

The reason is none other...

...than to wait for the return of the Sect Leader elder brother.

In fact, True Master Jun Shan chose to stay on Tianyuan Mountain for other reasons as well.

He is the only reincarnated Great Cultivator of the current Taoist sect, and has cultivated an astonishing three Tao Realms. According to Cui Zhen, in this world, scarcely a handful of cultivators have the opportunity to touch the "Harmonization" realm. Coincidentally, Jun Shan is one of them.

In his past lives, cultivating the two Tao Realms was not difficult for Jun Shan.

But this third Tao Realm requires "meditation."

This Tao Realm is named "Future."

Initially, Jun Shan went to the Northern Border Great Wall to spar with two Yin God Great Cultivators of the Demon Country...although it was a thrilling battle, the comprehension of the "Future Dao Realm" did not advance at all. This Tao Realm’s cultivation method differs from other Tao Realms, and the more one fights, the less progress is made.

Instead, upon returning to Tianyuan Mountain...

A natural meditation of the "Future Dao Realm" was triggered every few days.

And so...

Jun Shan stayed here, sitting day after day beneath the Talismanic Sky Well.

Deng Baiyi draws talismans.

He meditates.

This Talismanic Sky Well can serve for observation; if there is a great change, it very likely means the elder brother has "Divine Traveled back"!

"Swish!" 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

From the sky above, a blazing light descends.

The Talismanic Sky Well opens in response.

A wisp of purple energy rolls and gathers at the place where the heavenly light descends, coalescing into a tall figure in a Daoist robe within a few breaths.

"Elder brother..."

True Master Jun Shan actually had no hope.

When he clearly saw that familiar figure he’d parted with decades ago, his mind went blank.

"Sect Leader Xiao Yaozi..."

Deng Baiyi was also stunned.

Though she had received gifts from the Sect Leader and could conjure the "Heavenly Essence Incarnation" to act with the authority of the Sect Leader...

...it was also her first time witnessing Xiao Yaozi in person!

At this moment.

The entire Heavenly Origin Secret Realm was enveloped in a vast primordial energy.

The previously noisy and bustling Shadow Wall Cave Heaven immediately became utterly silent.

The Great Demons exchanged bewildered glances with one another.

They were unaware of the news that Xiao Yaozi had lost his way in the River of Destiny...

Deng Baiyi’s "Heavenly Essence Incarnation" was enough to intimidate these Great Demons.

In the past six months, Deng Baiyi occasionally maneuvered the "Heavenly Essence Incarnation" with Divine Thought to take a walk near the Shadow Wall Cave Heaven, and the aura given off by this incarnation alone was enough to subdue the Great Demons.

But this time...

Xiao Yaozi’s appearance, merely a wisp of Divine Thought, exerted an even greater pressure than the Heavenly Essence Incarnation!

In Shadow Wall Cave Heaven.

The most powerful Yin God Realm Great Demons were stunned by this majestic aura.

"What’s that old thing up to?"

"Could this be another breakthrough?"

The sky was filled with talismans and fragmented clouds dispersing.

The purple Dao robe fluttered and danced.

"...It’s me."

Xiao Yaozi appeared briefly, first glancing at Deng Baiyi with gratitude in his eyes, nodding slightly.

Then, he looked at his little junior brother, a complex expression on his face.

Just a single gaze exchanged.

True Master Jun Shan felt a surge of emotion at the tip of his nose.

Perhaps due to the influence of this childlike heart, Jun Shan disregarded his identity as a reincarnated ancestor and his usual pretense of aloofness in this moment.

With a cry.

The Dao-robed child opened his arms and stumbled towards his elder brother.

Ultimately, he ended up missing.

"..."

Xiao Yaozi saw this scene and smiled helplessly.

The purple robe continued to flutter in the wind.

However...Jun Shan passed through his body.

"It is merely the manifestation of Divine Thought, my flesh body has not returned."

Xiao Yaozi spoke softly, with some reproach: "You...still so impulsive..."

Jun Shan, who had bumped into a stone wall, was not annoyed by these words; instead, he grinned widely.

Rubbing his forehead, his voice was full of joy.

"Elder brother, I knew...you would surely return..."

For this day.

He had waited a long, long time.

The Taoist sect had endured countless upheavals and hardships over the years.

But as long as Sect Leader Xiao Yaozi could return, all problems, all troubles would be resolved.

The Great Cultivators of the Demon Country were still plotting how to breach the Northern Border Great Wall.

As long as the Sect Leader appeared.

Then these Great Demons would be nothing but chicken and dogs...

Apart from the Great Palace Master of the Heavenly Phoenix Palace and the Great Ape Mountain Saint Emperor, who could stop Xiao Yaozi?

Jun Shan was confident.

If it came to a real fight, even the Great Palace Master wouldn’t be a match for his elder brother!

"I must share this good news with them!"

True Master Jun Shan quickly got up, dusted himself off, and was about to take out a Communication Order.

"Jun Shan."

A deep voice called to him, stopping him.

True Master Jun Shan paused.

"This time...I don’t have much time..."

Xiao Yaozi standing in Tianyuan Mountain spoke heavily, yet his face was smiling.

He reached out his hand, trying to touch the child’s head.

Meeting again after nearly a century.

But this scene was not unfamiliar...

Recalling the years when True Master Jun Shan had just joined the Taoist sect, he was also this small, barely reaching Xiao Yaozi’s chest.

A simple reach of the hand could rub his head.

Truly, time waits for no one.

His little junior brother, he had lived through a second life.

"Elder brother...what do you mean?"

True Master Jun Shan gazed blankly at the tall figure in a purple robe before him.

His pupils suddenly contracted.

He noticed...the robes flying in the wind bore traces of blood along the fringes.

The Sect Leader elder brother was battling in the River of Destiny?

What kind of powerful foe.

Could engage in such a struggle with the elder brother?

Noticing this detail, True Master Jun Shan began to sweat coldly, a chill arising in his Heart Lake. Upon careful inspection, he found the traces of blood on the purple robe were quite mottled and complex, containing not only the elder brother’s blood, but also remnants of Sword Qi and traces of blood emanating Buddha light.

A suspicion began to form in his heart.

"The great calamity is approaching."

Xiao Yaozi lowered his voice and said slowly: "Miss Baiyi, I wish to borrow a talisman from you."

Deng Baiyi looked confused.

She stared at Xiao Yaozi in disbelief.

Confirmed several times.

The Xiao Yaozi who has cultivated to the Heavenly Human Realm...

wants to borrow a talisman from her?
