Still dare to pry?
"What happened up there? And what's this celestial phenomenon...?"
Bai Zongyi turned his head and looked around, and saw streaks of light flying towards the mountaintop.
Although he was also a member of the Bai Clan, this was the Main Family, and even if he wanted to know what was going on, he couldn't go over to check without permission.
Just as he was wondering, Dao Body appeared in the Courtyard. It was Clan Elder Bai Zhiyuan, who had brought him to this mountain.
At this moment, Bai Zhiyuan's expression was gloomy, and his face was quite ugly.
Bai Zongyi's heart skipped a beat. He bowed and said, "Greetings, Ancestor. May I ask what has happened?"
Bai Zhiyuan said coldly, "Are you sure your junior, Bai Xianghui, is in the Floating World? And Gu Yuanqing is only at the Void Heaven Initial Realm?"
Upon hearing this, Bai Zongyi's heart sank, and he quickly said, "Ancestor, how could I dare to deceive the clan about this matter? What I said is absolutely true. To obtain this information, several major Lineage in the Slanting Moon World pooled together 500,000 Ancient Coin and asked a friend to inquire about it from the Primordial Divine Sect."
Bai Zhiyuan questioned, "You could kill someone at the Void Heaven Initial Realm so easily, why go to such great lengths to seek help from the clan?"
Bai Zongyi said, "Several Void Heaven Cultivator in the Slanting Moon World have received Heavenly Heart Warning. We are willing to fight our way into the Floating World, but we no longer have Law Treasure like the World-Breaking Shuttle. Gu Yuanqing's cultivation is progressing rapidly. By the time the World Conflict begins, we don't know what level his cultivation will have reached. That's why we came to our clan for help."
Bai Zhiyuan then asked, "How can you confirm that Bai Xianghui is in the Floating World?"
Bai Zongyi said, "Our clan once used the Wind Moon Sect Mirror of the Mysterious Moon Mirror of Profound Communication to perform a soul-summoning technique. Although we failed to summon Bai Xianghui, we did summon another junior from the Chen Family who was traveling with us. Although it seems that Chen Zhengfeng's mind was controlled, the information we received from him should be from the Floating World. Moreover, when we used the World-Breaking Shuttle, I connected with the fortune of the Slanting Moon Token Slanting Moon World Token and calculated it using our clan's Secret Method Astrology, so it should be correct."
Bai Zhiyuan stared intently at Bai Zongyi and said in a deep voice, "Can you guarantee that everything you just said is the truth?"
Bai Zongyi said urgently, "This matter concerns the World Conflict, and I have even paid the price with the Danlin Token mark. Even if I had the greatest courage, I would not dare to lie about this matter. If I were to lie, may I, Bai Zongyi, Five Thunders Strike the Crown and suffer eternal damnation."
"You can go up the mountain and tell the other Clan Elder about this yourself!" Bai Zhiyuan's expression remained unchanged.
"Ancestor, could you tell this junior what exactly happened?"
"Bai Hong's soul lamp has gone out!"
"What?" Bai Zongyi exclaimed in disbelief.
"You should know what this means! You must give an explanation for this."
"Ancestor, how is this possible? Ancestor Bai Hong went with Split Soul. Even if he encountered some danger, it would not have endangered his life! Moreover, how could Gu Yuanqing, Void Heaven, possibly kill Ancestor Bai Hong? There must have been a problem when the Underworld was borrowing the passage. Yes, that must be it!"
Bai Zongyi was in a state of utter confusion. The death of a Celestial Person being had caused a huge problem!
His lineage had originally left home due to some trouble with their ancestors. Although they occasionally maintained contact with the Bai Clan, it was always within the Ancient Realm. This was the first time they had come here for the sake of the World Conflict, but they never expected such a thing to happen.
The importance of a Celestial Person is probably unmatched by all the members of his lineage combined, and one can only imagine the accusations he will face.
"We'll know the truth once we find out. Right now, you should think about what to say to your Main Family." Bai Zhiyuan grabbed Bai Zongyi's shoulder, soared into the sky, and headed towards the mountaintop.
In North Spring Mountain.
A light drizzle was falling; three days had passed since Bai Hong's arrival.
Gu Yuanqing lay back in the Chair, still immersed in enlightenment.
Although the two Heavenly Tribulation were short, he gained far more insights from them than from Refinement a single Earth Tier Dao Soul.
Each time he reflected on it, new insights arose. The principles of Yin-Yang Dao were profound and extensive, and he greedily absorbed them all. With each insight he gained, the Heavenly Human World seemed to become a little more real.
While observing the Heavenly Human World, he suddenly noticed wisps of golden light flashing across the spatial membrane at the edge of the world. This light was incomparably holy and possessed a sense of Indestructibility.
"Huh!"
Gu Yuanqing's attention was immediately drawn to it.
"This is... the light that symbolizes the Divine Martial Secret Treasure!"
Gu Yuanqing's Profound Martial Secret Treasure Transformation into the Saint Martial Secret Treasure before breaking through to the Dao Fire Realm. Based on this, he achieved the Dao Embryo Divine Treasury, which ultimately forged the current Heavenly Human World.
Now, having achieved the status of Celestial Person, and having undergone the Heavenly Tribulation heaven, this Celestial Person, with its vast and perfect structure, has finally begun to give back to the origin of this world.
If the foundation of a Saintly Martial being were to transform into a Divine Martial being, Heavenly Human World would naturally be able to bear even greater power, thus supporting his cultivation to ascend to a higher realm.
A faint joy welled up in his heart.
Suddenly, he frowned and sneered, "Still dare to spy?"
With a wave of his hand, the Incense Power condensed into a burst of energy that slashed towards the Void.
Within the Crimson Cloud Realm, this is where Bai Hong secluded himself in cultivation.
Bai Hong Bai Hong's Blood Corpse sat cross-legged in the center of the cave, a simple, round mirror emitting a faint, bluish-green light that enveloped his body.
Five steps away, a Celestial Person forming Hand Seal, a vertical eye between his brows glaring open, radiating a terrifying light.
This man is named Shentu Yu, also known as the Third Eye Divine Monarch. He was hired by the Bai Clan at great expense to investigate the cause of Bai Hong's death.
Within the cyan light, blurry scenes flashed by rapidly, revealing the route Bai Hong had taken.
They saw Bai Hong pass through the Underworld, possess Bai Xianghui, and arrive at a mountain. A figure appeared, but before everyone could see the figure clearly, a blade of energy flashing with golden and red light suddenly appeared out of thin air a few feet in front of Shentu Yu.
"Start the battle!" a Bai Clan Celestial Person shouted sternly.
Beside him, the Bai Clan's experts, who were on high alert, activated their True Essence, forming Array Formation and Law Treasure to create layers of protection around Shentu Yu.
Shentu Yu himself was also on guard; a Turtle Shell appeared from the Celestial Person and blocked the golden-red light.
However, this strike forcefully pierced through layers of defense, and although it was weakened considerably in the end, it still managed to penetrate Shentu Yu's Heavenly Eye between his eyebrows.
With a scream, Shentu Yu fell backward, and the round mirror that had been floating in the air also crashed to the ground.
"Brother Shentu." Bai Zhiyuan strode forward, helped Shentu Yu up, and looked down to see that the vertical eye between his eyebrows was a bloody mess and had been destroyed.
"Master!" A middle-aged Cultivator's expression changed, and he quickly stepped forward, took out a Restoration Pill from his Storage Bag, and hurriedly fed it to Shentu Yu. Then, he channeled his True Essence into the pill to neutralize its medicinal power.
After a long while, Shentu Yu slowly woke up, circulated his True Essence to stabilize his Divine Soul, and opened his eyes.
"Master, are you alright?"
"Brother Shentu."
Shentu Yu swayed as he stood up, assessed his internal condition, and said with a bitter smile, "Thanks to everyone's protection, I was able to save my life, but this eye is ruined, and I don't know how much effort it will take to restore it."
