Rebirth of the Supreme Celestial Being

Chapter 663 - The Men of Today Are Sadly Degenerated

Edited by Ea and NZRose

Lin Xuanzhi looked down, his long and thick eyelashes concealed the color in his eyes, and Esteemed Lan Yue only heard him say, “I had the will to die, I sacrificed my life to the sword, fought with death, and merged my entire cultivation into that sword strike. In addition, the Demon Emperor at that time was too arrogant and underestimated his opponent, so I succeeded with that strike, scattered his soul, and tore apart his body. Then, I was afraid that he would come back from the dead, so I sealed his broken body near Youshan.”

After that, the Pulou Mountain of heaven and earth had completely sunk thousands of miles around and turned into the Tomb of Youshan in the future. The Sword Venerable Chang Sheng, who had lost all his cultivation, knew that his life was about to end, so he went to the endless sea in the Northeast, on a small island full of peach blossoms. He turned into a mountain peak and all the swords in the Nine Lands cried together and broke one after another. Countless famous swords hummed and flew towards the peak of the Sword Venerable’s transformation. They regarded this place as a sword grave and their final destination, and willing to protect this Sword Venerable who had died for a just cause. From then on, the peak was named the Hidden Sword Peak, which was the Sword Tomb.

Myriad Dao Sect was originally a small sect, and it was only after the Sword Venerable Chang Sheng landed here that it gradually rose to prosperity. With miraculous help, it flourished, and it had now become the largest and number one sect in the Nine Lands.

Esteemed Lan Yue frowned slightly. “So, you suspect that the evil Qi cultivator who escaped was Youshan Lingyu?”

Lin Xuanzhi said, “I can’t be certain.”

“Why?”

Lin Xuanzhi thought about it now, and it felt a bit weird. “The three evil Qi cultivator generals under Youshan Lingyu were already in the Grandmaster Stage. How could they be so easily killed by the Demon Emperor at the same time?”

Lin Xuanzhi had doubts in his heart, and analyzed each one. “Evil Qi cultivators are like Fiends. They’re not easy to kill completely. Even if their soul is scattered, their spirit is lost, and their bodies are broken, they still must be sealed, and they have to be completely burned to ashes with fire, but Youshan Lingyu kept saying that their bodies were thrown into the black abyss.”

“You suspect that Youshan Lingyu actually sealed those three evil Qi cultivators back then, and now it is one of those three evil Qi cultivators who has escaped?” Esteemed Lan Yue quickly understood Lin Xuanzhi’s meaning.

Lin Xuanzhi nodded., “Probably so. Moreover, when I followed the evil Qi cultivator, I only sensed the evil Qi, but did not feel the slightest demonic Qi. Youshan Lingyu dual cultivated demonic Qi and evil Qi, so that was not like him.”

Esteemed Lan Yue pondered for a moment, and said, “If an evil Qi cultivator can be resurrected after so many years, it is indeed too terrifying.”

Lin Xuanzhi said, “Evil Qi cultivators are a product of a higher dimensional world, to begin with. If they arrive at the Nine Lands, for us, it is naturally a very terrifying existence.”

In the end, although the evil Qi cultivator had been trapped for so long and although he had the experience of fighting against evil Qi cultivators in the past, Lin Xuanzhi’s understanding of them was still particularly inadequate.

Tens of thousands of years ago, he had chosen the method of mutual destruction so that Youshan Lingyu, who cultivated both evil Qi and demonic Qi, died with him. However, now, was it still necessary for him to lay down his life and die with the enemy?

No, even if he had this ability, he wouldn’t do it anymore.

The Sword Venerable Chang Sheng of that year had no attachments in his heart, so he had no complaints and no regrets. Today’s Lin Xuanzhi still wanted to spend hundreds of years with Yan Tianhen, discussing the Tao together, admiring flowers together, seeing the famous mountains and rivers together, and ascending into immortality together.

Esteemed Lan Yue finally said, “Although I don’t know much about it, I have to prepare for a rainy day. Xuanzhi, you can’t expose your identity, but you still need to let more people know about the matter of the evil Qi cultivator, so as to make preparations in advance.”

Lin Xuanzhi said, “Before I was in the Hall, I had already thought about writing my knowledge of evil Qi cultivators into a book, so that all the cultivators in the Nine Lands could be prepared in advance. However, to make them believe in the existence of the evil Qi cultivators, it is up to Master to do his best.”

Every word of Esteemed Lan Yue and the Yin Family held great weight in the Nine Lands. They were the family closest to the Dao of Heaven. “This won’t be a problem.”

Esteemed Lan Yue was still worried about the astrology platform. “If I can activate the astrology platform, I will have the opportunity to measure the influence of the evil Qi cultivator on the future of the Nine Lands, and his general position. I can even find a way to resolve it. It’s a pity.”

“It’s not a pity.” Lin Xuanzhi looked at Esteemed Lan Yue and said, “Master, you insist on going to the astrology platform like this. I’m afraid that it’s not for divining heavenly secrets, but to change the predestined fate, right?”

Esteemed Lan Yue became speechless in astonishment.

“Master, with your ability for divination, I am afraid that you have already seen the future where the blood of the Nine Lands flows into rivers and mountains, and you have not found a way to resolve it, so you thought about using the Yin family as a sacrifice. The astrological array will be activated, the constellations will be reversed, and the fate of the celestial bodies will change, so as to resolve the disaster of the Nine Lands, or postpone it until a hundred or a thousand years later, right?”

Esteemed Lan Yue was a little embarrassed, but still holding up his face, said, “A bunch of nonsense.”

Lin Xuanzhi smiled, but he somewhat understood why even though Esteemed Lan Yue was not the reincarnation of Dao Zu and did not possess his soul or his spirit, yet he could become Lin Xuanzhi’s master in this life.

They’re too similar.

They’re truly too similar.

Especially this kind of noble and proud boundless love where he would silently lay down his own life to benefit the beings of the Nine Lands, was exactly the same as Dao Zu back then.

Lin Xuanzhi felt touched and also a little helpless.

“Master, this method won’t work.” Lin Xuanzhi sighed and said, “The forbidden method of changing fate by going against the heavens is too dangerous, and if there is a slight deviation in it, everything will spin out of control. Moreover, things have not yet reached the point where the forbidden method must be used. Master, don’t make me worry too much.”

Lin Xuanzhi finally came to a conclusion, “No matter what, I won’t let Master go to the astrology platform.”

Esteemed Lan Yue, “...”

A moment later, the door of Esteemed Lan Yue’s room was closed from the inside with a ‘Bang‘. Several disciples of Fuyao Sect outside looked up at Lin Xuanzhi, who had been kicked out.

Wan Yitong took the lead in sneering and said, “Ouch! Isn’t this Huarong Sword Immortal, the light of Daoism that moves the world? How can you be expelled from the room by Master?”

He thought that he was the only one who had ever gotten that treatment from Master before. This chapter is updated by novelenglish.net . ꜰirᴇ

Lin Xuanzhi straightened his clothes and spoke with profound mystery, “Take good care of Esteemed Lan Yue. Don’t let him have inappropriate thoughts. He can’t step on the astrology platform.”

“Why can’t he get on? Is Huarong Sword Immortal looking down on my master?”

“Indeed, he can’t step onto the platform.” The voice came from the moon gate. Yan Tianhen had already changed into his sect uniform. He stepped forward like a gust of wind and said, “Once the astrology platform is activated, the astrologer will either die or suffer grave injuries, and the participants’ cultivation will be reduced by half. Moreover, the biggest use of the astrology platform is not divination, but to change fate by going against the heavens. If anyone dares to let Master up there, they would be a disgrace as a disciple!”

“Youngest Martial Brother!”

“Ah Hen!”

Wan Yitong and Zhan Fengting spoke at the same time.

Yan Tianhen rushed over. First, he laughed at his elder martial brothers. Then he kept a serious expression. “Anyway, the astrology platform is not good.”

Zhan Fengting said, “The astrology platform... Besides divination, how can it be used to change fate and oppose the heavens?”

In Yan Tianhen’s mind, the astrological platform was originally built by Dao Zu in order to change fate. Dao Zu specially selected the endless sea, which was the most suitable place for astrology, and the people of later generations rarely knew about it. When the information was passed around too many times, people only knew that the platform was good for divination. But these people didn’t use their brains to think about it. If it could only do divination, why would it consume more than ten thousand spirit stones and three hundred talents to activate it?

Yan Tianhen took a deep breath and said, “I’ve seen it in some secret records of the Yan family, so you’d better be careful.”

Hai Kuanglang held his chin and said thoughtfully, “If that is true, we can’t let Master go up there at all.”

After getting the agreement from other disciples, Zhan Fengting sighed and said, “I think everyone knows Master. I’m afraid we won’t be able to persuade him.”

Wan Yitong laughed and said, “So what? If he really doesn’t listen to us in the end, we’ll find a way to knock Master unconscious and take him away.”

Wan Yitong met Zhan Fengting’s eyes, which had an expression of “You are such a disgraceful disciple”, and said with great enthusiasm, “To put it bluntly, although no one can stay out of helping the world, no one can bear it alone either. Why should my master be the one to die? It doesn’t make sense!”

Indeed, it didn’t make sense. But if people from ten thousand years ago heard this sentence, they would say, “The men of today are sadly degenerated.” During the period of Hidden Spirit Sect, as a disciple of the Hidden Spirit Holy Sect, you were destined to serve the world and take the lead. If you had other ideas, you would be drowned in the spittle of other people scolding you.

While enjoying the respect and worship, the disciples of the Spirit Sect also had to bear the burden that ordinary people couldn’t imagine. It seemed that at that time, for the sake of the world and the people, it was very normal to sacrifice one or two people. Just like when Lian Hua was used as the Pillar of Heaven in the sacrificial pool. It was like that when all the people of Spirit Sect surrounded Lingyu and forced him, all of them looked righteous and awe-inspiring, forcing him to sacrifice himself for the world and take responsibility.

However, no one had ever asked Lian Hua or asked Lingyu whether they wanted to do that.

In the end, the times have changed.

It was just that the change only existed in a small group of people. Yan Tianhen was almost certain that if someone in the future knew that they could obtain a peaceful and prosperous world by merely giving up one person’s life, they would definitely have the same words as those people thousands of years ago.

Zhan Fengting made a final decision, “We’ll persuade Master to go back tomorrow. This is simply ridiculous!”

Everyone nodded vigorously in agreement.

When the Fuyao Sect disciples made a decision, they would immediately carry it out. They didn’t have time to care about the younger martial brother they hadn’t seen for more than two years. Anyway, for the elder martial brothers of Fuyao Sect, Master’s words were greater than heaven.

Since even Master said at the time, “Yan Tianhen must be able to safely come out of the Tomb of Youshan”, then Yan Tianhen must be able to come out. If he did not come out, then that meant the time wasn’t right. After greeting Yan Tianhen, Wan Yitong dragged away Bei Shitian, who was trying to become one with the darkness, and went to pack things together, just waiting for tomorrow to run away.

Hai Kuanglang stood side by side with Zhan Fengting. Zhan Fengting did not have Wan Yitong’s energetic and brash temperament. His temper had become more and more stable and calm in recent years, and he was very capable of standing as a leader.

Zhan Fengting pinched Yan Tianhen’s face and said with a smile, “I haven’t seen my Shidi for a long time. I didn’t expect that my Shidi’s cultivation had increased so much. Master said before that the Tomb of Youshan is a great opportunity for you. It seemed that you really did have a fortuitous encounter.”

Yan Tianhen was stunned. “Master made a divination?”

Lin Xuanzhi’s eyes moved slightly.

Zaki~ This... ‘It was like that when all the people of Spirit Sect surrounded Lingyu and forced him, all of them looked righteous and awe-inspiring, forcing him to sacrifice himself for the world and take responsibility.’ My poor Lingyu, then you were branded as the worst.. Chang Sheng had done to you what LXZ had done to Ah Hen on his previous life... poor Xuanzhi, what are you going to feel when you’ll find out you had mis-understood and betrayed him twice in his two lifetime?... :’(
