Chapter 1064 - 1164: The Guardian Spirit's Final Request

Ye Tianfan couldn't help but have a question in his heart, that is, according to what the Guardian said, this relic won't last much longer.

Once this relic disappears, the Demon Beast suppressed by it will break free, and most importantly, the Chaos Treasure Lotus and Chaos Divine Pearl that can suppress this Demon Beast within the relic have been acquired by him.

This means the relic will disappear even faster, and if he wants to advance to the Immortal Realm, it will take at least several hundred or even a thousand years; otherwise, it's virtually impossible to enter the Immortal Realm, unless with various fortuitous encounters.

Although Ye Tianfan has experienced many different encounters since entering this world, he dare not guarantee he will continue to encounter so many opportunities in the future. After all, who can say for sure what the future holds, unless Ye Tianfan comprehends the Time Law and can see through past and future, only then could one seek fortuitous encounters.

Ye Tianfan immediately voiced his doubts to the Guardian Spirit, since if he fails to reach the Immortal level within the stipulated time, the Demon Beast of Immortal rank suppressed by this relic, if it breaks the seal, could potentially be more troublesome than the previous Nine-headed Demon Dragon, and the damage caused to the world would certainly be much greater than the Nine-headed Demon Dragon.

However, upon hearing Ye Tianfan's words, the Guardian Spirit smiled and then said.

"I think you might have misunderstood something. When I say soon, it's not the type of soon you might be thinking of. My so-called soon is according to my timeline, which is approximately five to six hundred years, already considering the removal of the Chaos Treasure Lotus' suppression. So you still have plenty of time to improve your strength."

Upon hearing the Guardian Spirit say that the Demon Beast will break the seal in around five or six hundred years, Ye Tianfan immediately felt anxious and said, "Hey, are you kidding? Only five or six hundred years? There's no way I can advance to the Immortal Realm in only five or six hundred years, I might not even manage to enter the Primordial Realm. Five or six hundred years is way too tight."

After hearing Ye Tianfan's words, the Guardian Spirit calmly said, "It's useless, I've already wagered all the treasures on you. I've taken out the Chaos Treasure Lotus from suppression, leaving only five hundred plus years of time remaining. I believe in five hundred years, you can increase your strength to the Immortal Realm. This conclusion isn't based solely on tests; it's also derived from observing you."

Upon hearing this, Ye Tianfan felt an immense pressure on himself. He didn't expect the Guardian Spirit, having only observed him for a short time, would trust him so implicitly, placing all bets on him and even handing over the main Magical Treasure for suppressing the Demon Beast, the Chaos Treasure Lotus, and also giving him a Chaos Divine Pearl, which can be used for transferring the Demon Beast into another space at crucial moments.

The Guardian Spirit even used so much energy to enhance his physical qualities, and covered his physical upgrades for the next fifteen years entirely, which made Ye Tianfan feel the pressure immensely at this moment.

Originally, Ye Tianfan's joy of acquiring exotic treasures instantly vanished. At this moment, he wished to hand over the Chaos Treasure Lotus and Chaos Divine Pearl, refusing to take on this mess.

Yet asking Ye Tianfan to hand over the Chaos Treasure Lotus and Chaos Divine Pearl, he would be quite reluctant, since these are the Treasures of Heaven and Earth—one can expand territories for the cultivation world, another can serve as the cultivation world's temporary fortress; furthermore, expanding territories in the cultivation world is greatly beneficial for Ye Tianfan's strength growth. After all, with more lands comes more resources, thus speeding the pace of strength enhancement.

When Ye Tianfan thought about this, he steeled his resolve: at worst, mobilize everyone in the cultivation world, whether in the Path of Righteousness or Devil's Path, to expand territories, advancing beyond the walls. He thought once the situation is revealed, neither the Path of Righteousness nor Devil's Path has the reason to refuse, since this is not only enhancing the strength of Righteous or Devil Paths but boosting the power of all cultivators worldwide. Even those struggling to reach the Primordial Realm may elevate to it through this incident.

Hence, when Ye Tianfan thinks about it this way, advancing to the Immortal Realm doesn't seem too difficult. Besides, his Sect Leader Taichu Zhenren is also at the half-step Primordial stage. If necessary, when Taichu Zhenren is about to advance to the Immortal Realm, he could come to the relic to help lengthen the suppression time. Although Ye Tianfan doesn't expressly know how to prolong this time, he believes Taichu Zhenren or the Guardian Spirit would have some way to extend the suppression period. Then if he hasn't reached the Immortal Realm, his uncles and elders could assist, considering by then they might have all reached the Primordial Realm, given the presumably abundant resources by that time.

Just as Ye Tianfan was contemplating this, he suddenly heard the Guardian Spirit's voice again; and this time, whether mistaken or not, Ye Tianfan felt the Guardian Spirit's voice was filled with pleading.

"My kindred spirit, I've wagered my master's and my treasures on you, and I believe you're not someone selfishly caring only for yourself, so please don't disappoint me. Truly don't disappoint me. I can't believe in another person again. If you don't succeed, then this world will turn to ashes."

Upon hearing this, Ye Tianfan felt uneasy and couldn't quite fathom it. He never expected the Guardian Spirit could trust him to such an extent, not leaving any margin for error, unequivocally trusting him unconditionally.

This made Ye Tianfan feel touched on one hand, yet extremely pressured on the other.

Of course, Ye Tianfan will strive hard for this trust, and surely rise to the Immortal Realm within these five hundred years, because it's not only about the Guardian Spirit's faith in him but the fate of the whole world. And early advancement to the Immortal Realm means Ye Tianfan can return to his original world sooner.

Ever since Ye Tianfan inadvertently heard Qin Ruomeng's voice while learning Vibrating Power, he has been impatient to return to his original world, but unfortunately, his current strength does not allow him to go back.

For this, Ye Tianfan is willing to sacrifice anything, for he now desperately wants to return to his own world. Over the hundreds of years within the relic, he has deeply missed his former world, although the Guardian Spirit has blurred these memories over those centuries. Yet Ye Tianfan still retains some of those memories, causing him to yearn for his original world.
