Nie Sheng, now middle-aged, finally pulled himself together. No matter how bitter it was, there were still things he had to face.
This was a man's responsibility, and also the sorrow of many middle-aged men.
When they were young and hot-blooded, they could righteously clash with their superiors, even if they themselves had done something wrong, because even if they gave up that job, they still had plenty of opportunities.
But once they reached middle age, even when it was not their fault, they could still lower their heads, bow, and apologize. For their wives and children, for their families, they bore responsibilities they could not cast aside.
In short, middle-aged man Nie Sheng possessed great resilience. Even without singing to vent his emotions, he began preparing to face Celestial Lord Zhang Qing.
When he underwent tribulation in the Immortal Realm and died before the final heavenly tribulation, Nie Sheng had lost almost all his treasures. But not all of them had vanished. Of the seven Primordial Unity immortal beasts he had controlled with gu insects, one had survived.
The immortal beast that survived was an evil spirit beast. The reason it had been able to follow a wisp of his remnant soul and be reborn in the Earth Star world was because it was a spirit entity.
After these past few years of spiritual energy revival, Nie Sheng had regained control over this immortal beast. Though the evil spirit beast could not unleash its full strength due to his own limited power, it could still display strength comparable to that of a True Immortal for a short time.
Upon learning that a powerful enemy was coming, Nie Sheng planned to use the evil spirit beast to channel spiritual power and create an array, waiting for Immortal Lord Zhang Qing
