Chapter 2593: Chapter 955: Yin Yang Residual Realm, Golden Lion Empire
“Friend Meng, it’s quite normal that you don’t recognize him after your hundred years of closed-door cultivation. This Friend Qi is a new rising power in the Southern Border, having risen to prominence not long ago.”
Master Li Tian said with a kindly smile, as if introducing a younger member of his own family.
This demeanor made Meng Shentong almost instinctively overlook Luo Chen.
However, that towering and upright figure was impossible to ignore.
“The surname Qi?”
Meng Shentong raised an eyebrow, as if recalling something, and began to seriously evaluate Luo Chen.
“Friend, could it be you are…”
As he spoke, his eyes were penetrating, as if endless illusions were evolving.
The Purple Robe Marquis’s purple attire fluttered in the breeze.
Hidden Sword Tower Master Fan Wujiao’s sword box behind him faintly hummed, warning of imminent danger.
Only Master Li Tian and Hong Ye Granny remained unaffected.
Luo Chen kept his eyes down but remained unmoved and calmly said, “I am Ba Xiu Qi Tian!”
His words were like a spring thunderclap.
The ethereal illusions that bewildered everyone instantly vanished.
Master Li Tian and Hong Ye Granny exchanged a glance, then frowned slightly and said, “Friend Meng, why such discourtesy?”
Just moments ago, Meng Shentong had clearly used the Luo Sect’s exquisite techniques to disturb the mind.
Without a divine soul endowment of his level, one would inevitably be affected.
The Purple Robe Marquis and Fan Wujiao both fell under this category.
However, Luo Chen’s reaction was somewhat peculiar.
He showed no outward resistance of Divine Consciousness, yet his voice carried an undeniable force, breaking the probing move with the Thunder Sound technique.
Meng Shentong waved his hand, “No harm, just a little test. After all, I know everyone here well, except for Friend Qi, who is quite unfamiliar. If he were to lag behind, it would be troublesome. Friend Qi, surely you wouldn’t mind?”
Would Qi Tian mind?
Of course, he would!
Since his debut in the Southern Border, his actions have been nothing but domineering and unrivaled.
Being tested so openly was equivalent to questioning his abilities, and it’d be surprising if he wasn’t angry.
Unexpectedly though, Luo Chen kept his eyes lowered, remaining extremely calm.
“Mutual probing is meaningless; let’s talk about the upcoming journey first! Once this matter is resolved, I will no longer owe the Heavenly Master anything and plan to leave the Southern Border. It’s best to resolve it as soon as possible.”
Leaving already?
Master Li Tian’s expression slightly tightened.
Meng Shentong chuckled and said, “Indeed, tell us about the true location of the secret realm, Master Li Tian, you’ve been keeping us in suspense long enough.”
Master Li Tian forced a smile and then began to meticulously explain the situation of the secret realm they were about to explore.
“It’s universally known that the Southern Border Sacred Land solely possesses three fifth-tier Divine Gu: Fortune and Calamity, and Life and Death Gu. With these three Gu, the great powers of the Gate of Life and Death have remained unbroken since ancient times.”
“However, two thousand years ago, the great power Yin Yang Zi, who controlled the Life and Death Gu, perished along with his contracted Ancient Desolate, leading to the collapse of the Life and Death Gu. Since then, the Southern Border Sacred Land has lost a foundation.”
“A thousand years ago, another great power from the Gate of Life and Death, for unknown reasons, left the Sacred Land for Zhongzhou and finally ascended to the Immortal Realm at Tianyuan Daoist Sect. Before leaving, he left behind the Calamity Gu. But this Calamity Gu was too dangerous to be easily inherited and refined by ordinary disciples. During an inheritance trial five hundred years ago, it was taken by a prodigy from the Outer Continent and thus vanished from the Southern Border.”
“With one Gu collapsed and another missing, the great powers of the Gate of Life and Death were interrupted, leaving only the current Youli Divine Monarch to hold on with great difficulty.”
“The current chaotic situation in the Southern Border is greatly related to this absence of two of the sacred Divine Gu.”
On the flying boat, those listening sighed deeply.
There are many paths for cultivators to advance to Divine Transformation, but for the Southern Border practitioners, success and failure are both linked to Gu insect assistance.
At the final step of Divine Transformation, having been reliant on Gu insects, they find themselves lacking the most important fifth-tier Divine Gu!
Thus, countless astonishing talents ultimately perished silently as their lifespan ended.
Who would have thought that even a sacred land would be limited by the fifth-tier Divine Gu?
Luo Chen was not deeply touched, as he had relied on Gu insect assistance for cultivation for only a short period and could not comprehend the feeling of being utterly helpless without Gu insects.
Instead, he was quite interested in some of the information from Master Li Tian’s introduction.
The left Calamity Gu was taken by a prodigy from the Outer Continent and brought out of the Southern Border?
Could it be the Tribulation Gu suppressed by Valley Immortal Feng Jiang of the Dark Abyss Sect?
And now, that thing is in my Natal Magic Item, isn’t it?
Calamity Gu? Tribulation Gu?
Different names, but the meaning is essentially the same.
Heavenly tribulations and earthly disasters, calamities following closely.
Master Li Tian’s introduction continued smoothly as the flying boat sped forward.
“This journey, we are headed to the Yin Yang Residual Realm, the place where the great power Yin Yang Zi sat and perished!”
“Perhaps you all don’t know, but Yin Yang Zi, in ancient times, was also a renowned prodigy. With the help of the Life and Death Gu, through a fortuitous encounter in the Wilderness, he entered into a contract with a top-tier Great Desolate, thus advancing his cultivation to Divine Transformation.”
Luo Chen and the others clicked their tongues in wonder.
The Life and Death Gu is indeed abnormal; it overlooks differences in realms and once bound, it means life and death are shared!
Moreover, they can share cultivation insights and progress together.
It’s practically a cultivation cheat!
“However, success also comes from the Life and Death Gu, and failure as well. That top-tier Great Desolate already had a limited lifespan. After enduring for a thousand years past ancient times, it eventually perished. The bound Yin Yang Zi, despite having much lifespan left, could only perish reluctantly.”
“Upon his demise, due to his unwilling resentment, the true intent of the law lingered and wouldn’t dissipate, causing harm to the world. The strong of the Gate of Life and Death spent a great deal of effort to seal it, thus forming the Yin Yang Realm!”
