Chapter 216 - A Changed Situation
Chapter 216: A Changed Situation
Wang Qian’an appeared at the back of the mountain in a flash.
He saw an old man he’d never seen before standing on the side of the mountain.
The old man looked like he was on the verge of death.
With just a glance at the old man’s back, Wang Qian’an realized that he had entered a different period of time.
The surrounding trees and flowers were blooming and falling.
“So powerful!”
Wang Qian’an did not know how long had passed before he recovered from the glance of the old man’s back.
He had only taken a glance from afar, and he had almost fallen into another timeline.
At the same time, Bai Zhijing also felt a trace of time erosion.
Her figure flashed and appeared at the back of the mountain.
“What happened?”
“Don’t go over!”
Wang Qian’an hurriedly pulled Bai Zhijing back.
“This is…”
He took a glance at the old man’s back view from afar and fell into another timeline.
When Wang Qian’an felt that something was wrong, he quickly pulled Bai Zhijing back.
On the mountain, as time passed, the big trees around the old man quickly grew taller. Then, they suddenly withered and collapsed.
The grass under his feet also changed again and again.
Many of the grass withered numerous times and they never managed to grow again.
Wang Qian’an and Bai Zhijing were shocked!
“Life is so fragile in time!”
Soon, a few elders of the Xuantian Sect appeared at the back of the mountain.
When they saw the old man, shock flashed in their eyes. After a long time, the old man did not wake up, so they turned around and left.
None of the elders realized that this old man had nothing to do with the Xuantian Sect.
“Look, is this the legendary senior of our sect?”
“You don’t know?”
Bai Zhijing shook her head.
“I think so!”
Wang Qian’an nodded firmly.
“What do you mean?”
“There aren’t many human experts who can appear in the Xuantian Sect. We know all of them. The most important thing is that I still can’t see his cultivation achievement.” Wang Qian’an glanced at the old man and said.
“Nonsense. If the body can withstand the erosion of time, then the cultivation achievement is not something that a true realm cultivator can resist. It’s normal that you can’t see his cultivation achievement clearly!”
Bai Zhijing rolled her eyes.
The two of them stared at Li Mu for a long time. He did not seem like an intruder, and he was not hostile towards the Xuantian Sect.
Thus, they slowly let down their guard.
Five days later, Li Mu slowly came to his senses.
“Signing in!”
The first thing he said when he woke up was instinctively.
Then, he was stunned on the spot.
He recalled the scenes he saw in the forbidden area in his mind.
What kind of hall was that?
Why did he feel like he was being targeted by something?
After a long time, Li Mu wanted to take a step forward, but he found that he was so old that he couldn’t even move his feet.
He had aged!
He was almost on the verge of death.
If the reward he got from signing this time was useless, then he would really be dead for sure.
Power!
Hopefully, it was power!
With a few thousand years of power, he could return to his youthful appearance.
He took a deep breath and silently checked the rewards that had been signed in the Forbidden Hall.
“It’s the Xuantian method!”
He had finally signed in for the Xuantian method.
It really was a matter of looking forward to something that never appeared. Yet, while Li Mu wasn’t paying attention, it had unintentionally appeared again.
Alright!
The Xuantian method was not bad either.
If he cultivated it in time with the help of the limitless method, he would definitely be able to break through.
After breaking through, his lifespan would also be extended.
Hopefully, he still had time to cultivate the Xuantian method and therefore the chance to break through!
Li Mu smiled bitterly in his heart.
The expression on his face did not change at all.
According to the formula of the Xuantian method, Li Mu started to cultivate on the spot.
Very soon, the vital essence in his body started to spin crazily.
The wrinkled and aged skin on his body tightened and relaxed intermittently.
One day, two days!
He did not forget to sign in when he was cultivating.
Three days later, Li Mu signed in his 500-year cultivation strength and heaved a sigh of relief.
He could live for a few more days.
Wang Qian’an and Bai Zhijing, who were staring at him, had left a long time ago. Occasionally, they would glance at this place with their divine sense.
“Brother-in-training, that mysterious human expert who killed so many people on Mount Eternal hasn’t been found yet, has he?”
“No, it’s said that the human race in Ziyang City belonged to an elder of our Xuantian Sect. During that period of time, none of our sect’s elders went to Ziyang City, let alone Mount Eternal. Furthermore, this is a powerful swordsman cultivator. Our elder’s strength is not enough.”
One day, as she was in Wang Qian’an’s study, Bai Zhijing thought of something.
“Then you haven’t looked for him?”
“I can’t find him! But this is a good thing for us!”
Wang Qian’an laughed.
If an expert of the human race appeared, they would have more strength.
Those who wanted to betray the human race would think about it carefully.
“Brother-in-training, you said that the person at the back of the mountain is an ancestor, but you don’t have any evidence to prove it. What if he is a bad person?”
Bai Zhijing suddenly thought of Li Mu who appeared at the back of the mountain.
“It’s been a month, and you only just thought of this. It’s too late to ask this now. If he really was a bad person, he would have already made a move against our Xuantian Sect. Besides, the human race is weak. Even if such an expert isn’t from our Xuantian Sect, he’s still a big shot of the human race.”
“But what if he is?”
“In fact, to prove whether or not he is related to our Xuantian Sect is to see if he cultivates the Xuantian method. This kind of cultivation method can only be cultivated with a strong mind and no distracting thoughts. Even if you’re a disciple of our sect, it does not guarantee success.” Wang Qian’an said.
The more advanced the Xuantian method, the slower one progressed in cultivating it.
It was indeed a test of one’s temperament.
In the Xuantian Sect, which did not have the limitless method, the disciples were even purer.
If the other party had cultivated the Xuantian method to such a level, there was no need to mention it.
The two of them were discussing this.
Boom!
An aura suddenly exploded from the back mountain.
The aura spread out in all directions, and the entire Xuantian Sect was shocked.
“This is…”
“What is that old man doing?”
..
Before the group of Xuantian Sect elders could figure it out, another towering aura came crashing down.
Boom!
“Haha, I see!”
Wild laughter burst out from the old man’s mouth.
Then, the Xuantian Sect at back of the mountain quietened down.
The old man stood there as if he had entered a state of realization.
A few figures appeared behind him, but he did not seem to notice them.
“Is this the aura of the Xuantian method?”
“No, there’s still a trace of the aura of the limitless method!”
The elders stared at each other, then frowned.
“Who is he?”
Suddenly, a chill rose in the elders’ hearts.
Only their ancestor could cultivate the Xuantian method to such an advanced level.
What made it worse was that this old man seemed to know the limitless method.
Who was this?
“Could it be that ancestor?”
“If it’s that ancestor, then the aura on his body should be even more terrifying…”
Boom!
Before the elder finished speaking, the sun and moon above the Xuantian Sect changed colors suddenly.
A powerful aura was suppressing in all directions.
The few elders and Wang Qian’an were pushed out as well.
Following that, they were pressed down by the powerful aura.
Whoosh
Everyone’s eyes were filled with shock.
However, this aura became stronger and stronger. The surrounding vitality quickly gathered towards the old man’s body.
A few days later, a huge vitality vortex formed with the old man as the center.
The vortex dragged the Xuantian Sect and everything within hundreds of kilometers around the Sect into it.
The vitality in the entire Shining Heaven Territory surged wildly.
Countless demon elders opened their eyes and stared in the direction of the Xuantian Sect.
“This is… Someone is about to break through!”
“Which old fellow in the Xuantian Sect has broken through?”
“I thought that the Xuantian Sect no longer had any experts. I didn’t expect there to be more hidden. There’s definitely more than one.” An old woman lying within the hollows of a tree on Mount Wutong said.
Some time ago, the Xuantian Sect suddenly released the Haotian Palm and the Mystic Void Sword Methods. After that, it was the limitless method.
Needless to say, it must have been some old man who was resurrected.
Now there was another breakthrough.
“Ancestor, what should we do?”
“Alas! The situation is about to change.”
