"Treasure Gathering Fairy Jiang Shi isn't human at all."
In Loulan City, Deng Jin—meaning Golden Crow Immortal Lord Deng Guanjian—said to Baichuan Liu, "An extraterrestrial demon, a Haotian Incarnation, the Protagonist of the Storybook, the Person Destined for Calamity... In any case, she definitely isn't human."
Although he was gossiping behind the back of a teammate who had just fought alongside him, Deng Guanjian's tone remained utterly calm. He sounded more like he was matter-of-factly recounting a truth he was completely certain of.
"Even if she's the destined Immortal Venerable, Sacrificial Wine, could you return to the secret realm before discussing this?" Baichuan Liu said helplessly. "You're not far from the Fifth-Ninth Heavenly Tribulation! Even if you're confident you can survive the Fifth-Ninth Heavenly Tribulation and the Sixth-Ninth Heavenly Tribulation, what will you do about the Seventh-Ninth Heavenly Tribulation? We don't have a Golden Core Calamity Lord to help us!"
Although Deng Guanjian was no longer the Sacrificial Wine of Dragon Sparrow Summer Palace, he had always been proud of that identity. Whenever his former students refused to call him Sacrificial Wine, he would sigh and lament, "Young people these days are probably tired of this old immortal," acting so miserable and pitiful that even the Six-Turn Gold-Refining Great True Person Baichuan Liu, who valued etiquette and hierarchy, had no choice but to yield.
"With the current situation, I'm afraid I won't be able to linger in the Four Tribulations Realm for long." Deng Guanjian dropped a bombshell. "Before the Grand Ceremony of Proving the Dao, I'm going to survive the Fifth-Ninth Heavenly Tribulation."
Baichuan Liu stared in astonishment. According to Daoist Duobao's prediction, fewer than ten days remained before the Grand Ceremony of Proving the Dao. Deng Guanjian had survived the Four-Nine Heavenly Tribulation only eighty years ago. In
