Although none of the elders of the Three Immortal Mountains could endure from ten thousand years ago to the present as Feng He had, some of them had lived for several thousand years.
They had not emerged during the Demon Hall's last few Thousand-Year Periods.
Only if the Three Immortal Mountains truly reached the end of the road would they be awakened.
"I hope we won't have to awaken the elders this time either," Li Bai said.
If they were awakened, they probably would not have much life left.
Once they woke, returning to their slumber would be all but impossible.
In this respect, they could not compare to Feng He. That was the marvel of the Ghost Spirit Sect's cultivation method.
"This Thousand-Year Period is different. I'm afraid we'll have no choice but to awaken the elders," Wu Xuancang said.
Huo Lian's words had filled him with apprehension.
The Demon Hall's First Hall Master was not someone Feng He could compare to.
Li Bai said nothing. His heart was heavy as well.
"All right, what must come will come. Worrying here won't help," Wu Xuancang said. "Look after those girls a little. Whatever happens to Huang Xiao in the future, let's protect them if we can. Whatever else, they're old acquaintances from the Central Plains, members of the younger generation!"
"Rest assured, Grandpatriarch," Li Bai said.
"Old ghost Feng He, let Huang Xiao rest a while," Huo Lian said.
Feng He glanced at Huang Xiao beside him and saw that his face was deathly pale and his breathing erratic.
"What a useless wretch," Feng He said after looking at Huang Xiao. "Huo Lian, it seems the person you chose isn't much either."
"Hmph, why don't you bring an Enlightenment Realm junior here and try?" Huo Lian said coldly.
