Mountain of Ten Thousand Longevities!

"Hengmu, if you were to remain neutral, I would naturally be the one coming to see you. But since you have chosen the Wujian Gate's side, then we are now only enemies."

The young Daoist priest had four small swords, resembling hairpins, inserted side by side into his topknot.

Upon seeing the four small swords, the Black-Robed God King's pupils constricted. "They've even brought the Immortal-Slaying Four Swords."

The Destruction Heavenly Dao Avatar of the Daoist Sanqing carries the Immortal-Slaying Four Swords, all of which are top-grade Chaos Treasures.

With the help of the Immortal-Slaying Sword Diagram, the Immortal-Slaying Sword Formation he set up was hailed as the number one killing treasure in the Three Realms.

During the ancient war of destruction, the Sanqing, relying on the Immortal Immortal-Slaying Sword Formation, single-handedly held off the arrogant Lord of All Things and his army for a long time, buying enough time for Nuwa to break through to the level of World God.

A person's name, a tree's shadow.

Even though the Black-Robed God King knew that countless years had passed and he was no longer the same person he once was, he still couldn't shake the fear in his heart when he saw the Daoist Sanqing again.

"Sanqing, are you trying to break the rules and stop our army of celestial gods and immortals?" the Black-Robed God King said coldly.

At this moment, the celestial gods and immortals who had entered the Earth Ruins Realm had received his instructions to first destroy the immortal base of Nuwa Faction and slaughter as many of the celestial immortals in Nuwa Faction as possible in the Earth Ruins Realm.

His question was also a reminder to the Sanqing not to attack the Heavenly Gods and True Immortals of the Wujian Gate who had entered the Earth Ruins Realm.

Unless the Sanqing Ones intervene, even if Nuwa Faction is currently mobilizing celestial gods and immortals, it will be too late.

"Breaking the rules? When have you ever broken the rules first Wujian Gate doing so?" Daoist Lingbao glanced at the Black-Robed God King. "You only send out Heavenly Gods and True Immortals, so naturally we will only respond with Heavenly Gods and True Immortals as well."

"Could it be..." The Black-Robed God King suddenly felt a knot in his heart and looked into the Earth Ruins Realm.

Then, from the immortal bases belonging to Nuwa Faction, a large number of celestial gods and true immortals emerged from the teleportation array, and the exact number was exactly three hundred and twenty.

However, despite the seemingly equal number of celestial beings on both Wujian Gate, it's important to remember that the celestial beings of the Nuwa Faction, with the help of various magic arrays in the immortal base and countless celestial beings, naturally suffered losses on the Wujian Gate Sect's side.

In that brief moment of battle, the Black-Robed God King saw that six or seven of his own celestial gods and immortals had already fallen, which immediately turned his face dark.

"How could they react so quickly?" The Black-Robed God King couldn't believe it.

Could it be that the Sanqing Ones have been keeping an eye on the Earth Ruins Realm all along?

In order to divert their attention, he caused some of the major worlds that were at war to take corresponding actions.

With so many great worlds fighting each other in the Three Realms, and some even preparing for a decisive battle between realms, how could they possibly pay attention to the ever-peaceful Earth Ruins Realm?

"Is it Bodhi?" The voice of the Master Hengmu suddenly rang out. "Bodhi's Dreaming of the Three Realms is indeed extraordinary. Did Bodhi notice me and remind you when I left the First World?"

That old fellow Bodhi?

The Black-Robed God King harbored deep resentment.

Among all the powerful beings in the Three Realms, the most mysterious is undoubtedly Bodhi Ancestor.

Even during the ancient war of destruction, when the Pangu World was on the verge of collapse, Bodhi did not intervene in the battle; he merely intervened to save people.

Even he himself couldn't be sure just how strong Bodhi was.

All that was known was that Bodhi was the most skilled at escaping from Nuwa Faction, and even the Black-Robed God King hadn't expected Bodhi to possess such formidable reconnaissance abilities.

However, he knew that his martial uncle and Bodhi were good friends, so if his martial uncle said so, it must be true.

"What was supposed to be a surprise attack has turned into a siege... That damned old man." The Black-Robed God King hurriedly went to inform the celestial gods and immortals in the Earth Ruins Realm not to attack the immortal base of Nuwa Faction anymore, but instead to exterminate the Necro Race and seize all magical treasures and resources.

He could certainly continue to dispatch celestial gods and immortals, as well as celestial armies, to the Earth Ruins Realm.

However, since Nuwa Faction was prepared, if they mobilized their troops, the enemy could do the same.

In terms of the number of celestial beings and immortals, the Wujian Gate has significantly fewer members than Nuwa Faction.

In terms of overall strength, the Wujian Gate is at a disadvantage.

Only through their insidious intelligence network and some covert methods were they able to fight on par with Nuwa Faction on various battlefields.

With the battlefields already tense, deploying even more armies of immortals and demons would undoubtedly be extremely dangerous.

If this leads to a significant reduction in the strength of one of the ten super military camps, the Nuwa Faction might seize the opportunity to launch a counterattack and destroy their own base camp, which would be a great loss.

Regardless of how much the Black-Robed God King was troubled, Daoist Lingbao and Master Hengmu stood there watching the Earth Ruins Realm from afar.

"Since you already had arrangements, why did you come in person? Was it for your little disciple?" Master Hengmu said with a smile.

"Of course," said Daoist Lingbao. "If it were just a Heavenly God or True Immortal dealing with him, I naturally wouldn't interfere. Even if I died, it would be because I was simply outmatched. But if a True God Dao Ancestor were to intervene, I would absolutely not allow it."

"Do you think I would personally kill your disciple?" Master Hengmu, looking at Daoist Lingbao.

"Just because you can't doesn't mean others can't," Daoist Lingbao shook his head. "Besides, even if you don't intervene, you can still block the rescue from the outside. Even if I wanted to get here, it would take me a lot of time to break through your blockade."

As close friends, the Sanqing were well aware of the methods employed by the Master Hengmu.

In terms of defense, Master Hengmu is definitely the strongest in the Wujian Gate. On our side, perhaps only ' Rulai ', who has the strongest defense, can compare with him.

Compared to the Rulai, whose methods were highly specialized, Huan Wood Master was far more complex and diverse, with almost nothing he didn't understand.

His mastery of formations is comparable to that of Fuxi, and he is also among the best in close combat.

The Master Hengmu was equally proficient in other areas such as crafting puppets and refining elixirs.

Although he may not be the best in the Three Realms in any one way, he can rank in the top three in every other way.

This makes Huan Wood Master very difficult to deal with.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have sent his most skilled and powerful magic weapon clone, the Lingbao clone, to come here.

"Actually, you can rest assured. That little guy is not in the Earth Ruins Realm right now. He should have entered the Five Village Temple."

The Master Hengmu sighed, "Nuwa is truly remarkable. I consider myself to be proficient in a wide variety of things, but she is not only skilled in multiple paths, but also in spacetime. Even though I know that Five Village Temple is hidden in the Earth Ruins Realm, I still can't find it. I truly admire her."

"Nuwa's methods are naturally remarkable." Daoist Lingbao's lips curled into a smile.

Zhou Hao was not in the Earth Ruins Realm, and there was no trace of him in the entire Three Realms. Daoist Lingbao naturally knew that he must have entered Five Village Temple.

Since the Master Hengmu wasn't leaving, and the Black-Robed God King was also there, he naturally wouldn't leave either.

Zhou Hao was naturally unaware of the tremendous changes that had occurred in the Earth Ruins Realm.

After entering that ancient gate, he felt a blinding white light before his eyes and a shift in the surrounding space and time.

When they came to their senses, they found themselves in front of a High Mountain.

The mountain, its peak reaching the heavens, was surrounded by thousands of colorful clouds, and an ancient brick path led straight from its foot into its summit.

Amidst the myriad colorful clouds drifting atop the mountain, a Daoist temple stands faintly, majestic and awe-inspiring, radiating brilliant light in all directions.

"What a blessed land!" Zhou Hao exclaimed before walking towards the ancient brick path at the foot of the mountain.

Beside the mountain path stands a tiger-tooth stone, over three zhang tall, with three large characters carved on it.

"Mountain of Ten Thousand Longevities?" Zhou Hao read it out word by word, then exclaimed happily, "It really is Five Village Temple!"

The name of Five Village Temple on Mountain of Ten Thousand Longevities was known even to children in the mythological biography of his previous life, and now he had actually come to this place.

"This is Five Village Temple, of course." A voice suddenly rang in Zhou Hao's ears.

He looked up at the sound and saw an old man with white hair, dressed in an earth-yellow cloth and looking like a farmer, suddenly appear out of nowhere and silently arrive several feet away from him.

"Unbeknownst to us, another million years have passed." The white-haired old man chuckled as he looked Zhou Hao up and down. "Young man, you are the first person destined to arrive at Mountain of Ten Thousand Longevities since the opening of Five Village Temple. I hope you can go all the way to the end and inherit the mantle left by the ancestor."

"Who are you, sir?" Zhou Hao bowed slightly.

The white-haired old man before him was completely unfathomable; Zhou Hao couldn't even discern whether he was a puppet or a living being. This left him somewhat uncertain.

Logically speaking, since Five Village Temple secluded for so long, there shouldn't be any living beings guarding it.

But the white-haired old man's aura was not that of a puppet.

Could it be the spirit of a magical artifact?

Zhou Hao thought of the Daoist disciple from the Purple Pole Hall, and secretly speculated.

"Me?" The white-haired old man chuckled. "I am merely the guardian of Mountain of Ten Thousand Longevities. Ever since the passing of Zhenyuan and the concealment of Five Village Temple by the Lady Nuwa's magic array, I have been guarding this place, waiting for the final successor."

As he spoke, the white-haired old man seemed somewhat downcast, shaking his head and sighing, "But so many years have passed, and countless people with affinity have come, yet not a single one has truly reached the end and seen the portrait of the Ancestor. I wonder when Five Village Temple will be able to see the light of day again."

Inheriting the mantle?

Can Five Village Temple back to light?

Zhou Hao's eyes lit up.

It seems that upon arriving here, one can not only obtain the Ginseng Fruit and the treasures left behind by the Lady Nuwa to aid in enlightenment, but also all the legacies of a fallen great being.

P. S.: I overestimated my time management skills yesterday... I won't be able to finish writing three chapters.

The previous setup of Five Village Temple was somewhat inadequate.

I'll think about it some more tonight and try to improve it.

According to the plan, Zhou Hao is about to undergo his tribulation.

This tribulation is very important.

Okay, that's all for today.
