Along the mountain path lined with willows and babbling brooks, the two strolled leisurely, admiring the beautiful scenery, as if time had been paused at that moment.
Xie Feng asked, "Senior brother, tell me how you came to the Upper Realm! And how did you ascend back then?"
Ge Ya laughed, " The Devil Emperor roams the heavens and earth, ignoring all obstacles. A mere boundary wall cannot stop me! Ascension? No need for ascension!"
Xie Feng: "..."
Back then, Master and Senior Jing Yuan could travel freely Lower Realm...
Now that the second senior brother is like this, it's reasonable to assume that the eldest senior brother has even fewer restrictions!
So he's the only one who needs to ascend?
He really is the weakest one in the Xuanji Sect...
Ge Ya crossed his arms, a hint of reminiscence in his narrow eyes. "Junior brother, now that you're all grown up, some things are no longer secrets. For example... our origins!"
Xie Feng was taken aback. "You guys?"
Ge Ya nodded.
" Xuanji Sect is a secluded sect founded by my master in the Lower Realm. It is unknown to the world and has no history. It is his place of cultivation."
"Master comes from a mysterious world, a very high civilization. The higher you climb, the more you will understand Master. Now, just be down-to-earth, take it one step at a time, and pursue the highest realm."
"And neither I nor my senior brother are from the Upper Realm; we come from different universes."
"340 years ago, the eldest brother was an orphan who was stranded in a certain universe and was taken in by the master."
"330 years ago, I was also an orphan, stranded in a certain universe, and was taken in by my master."
"26 years ago, you were also an orphan, stranded in the Eternal Night of the Lower Realm, where your master took you in..."
"We had been traveling and cultivating with our master before, but after we found you, we settled down in the Lower Realm and built the Xuanji Sect."
Ge Ya's tone was slightly solemn.
Xie Feng: "..."
Goodness, this master is practically a professional baby-picker...
What surprised him even more was that his two senior brothers were so young!!
He's only a little over three hundred years old!
For the average person, this age is quite old.
but!
They are no ordinary people!
They are gods from a higher-dimensional universe!
At this age, with such achievements, one would be considered an unparalleled genius in any world!
hiss...
Xie Feng took a light breath.
Because he had more contact with his second senior brother since childhood, he would understand Ge Ya better.
This guy has always been an unusual monster!
He once studied Martial Dao, achieving great Martial Dao, but his cultivation mysteriously vanished. He then studied Dao of Alchemy, achieving great Dao of Alchemy, but the art of alchemy disappeared again. Finally, he studied Formation...
In short, it's incredibly bizarre!
Xie Feng was only seven or eight years old at the time and didn't think anything was wrong.
Looking at it now, it's just so strange!
Why is this happening?
Xie Feng finally couldn't hold back and asked about the situation he had overlooked before. Ge Ya answered all his questions.
He leaned against a willow tree, casually breaking off a willow branch to play with (picking flowers and grass is immoral; handsome men and beautiful women should not imitate this person!), and said quietly:
"This situation... is due to my constitution!"
" The Great Cosmos Devil-Devouring Physique!"
"This physique is rare and powerful; those who possess it are born to be Saint Emperor!"
"This terrifying energy can kill vulnerable infants! To counteract this, an Innate Infant Qi' is generated within the infant's body."
"However, once infancy is over, if the chaotic energy is not suppressed in time, the child's consciousness will be gradually swallowed up until he or she is annihilated."
"I was like this when I was born. After my Innate Infant Qi faded, I could only wear the Devil Path Armor, which contained another kind of violent energy, all year round."
"The consequence of this is that the two energies of the armor and the physique are constantly fighting within my body. When they fight, I suffer."
"My energy is constantly being drained by the armor! After losing my Martial Dao cultivation, I wanted to try something else, so I went to learn Dao of Alchemy. When my Dao of Alchemy energy was completely depleted, I went to learn Formation, Medical Dao... I learned almost every kind of 'Tao' in the world."
"Aside from Literary Dao, cough cough, I get a headache as soon as I look at books; I'm really not cut out for studying..."
Ge Ya shrugged and snorted.
Xie Feng nodded.
Ge Ya continued, "When the armor clashes with one's physique, it is the Emperor who suffers. My master is very worried about this and has been searching for a solution."
"One day, my master brought me a mysterious pill. After I took it, I was able to control the Great Cosmos Devil-Devouring Physique with ease! Because of my extraordinary talent and years of cultivation, after my potential was unleashed, I became proficient in everything I learned."
"This pill is very unusual. Even with my keen eyesight, I cannot discern the ingredients used to make it; it is something beyond comprehension..."
Xie Feng asked, "Senior brother, what realm are you at now?"
Ge Ya shrugged. "I cannot guarantee that what I say is correct, because I am too powerful and my cultivation has improved too quickly!"
Xie Feng: "..."
Look at this, is this even human language?!
Ge Ya suddenly moved closer to Xie Feng, pointed at the latter's sleeve, and said, "This little toy is not bad."
He was referring to the Extreme Dao Sword, which had been transformed into a pattern printed on Xie Feng's right sleeve!
Hearing this, Xie Feng was startled.
Senior brother is indeed senior brother; his insight is subtle. Without deliberately showing it, he knew about the existence of the Extreme Dao Sword!
"If we fight it..."
Ge Ya spoke, he raised a middle finger and waved it provocatively at the Extreme Dao Sword.
This means...
KO it in one second!
"Wow!"
"This is intolerable! This is intolerable!"
The Extreme Dao Sword almost fainted from anger.
Even though it's just an avatar, it's still Extreme Dao Sword!
This guy is really insulting himself!
At this moment.
The silver sword pattern on Xie Feng's sleeve burst forth with intense light, and instantly, the vast Dao principles on Xuanji Mountain stirred and swept over!
Ge Ya calmly replied, "This emperor does not attack his own people."
Xie Feng said, "Senior brother has always had this temper, don't take it to heart."
Extreme Dao Sword: "..."
Listen to this, listen to this, is this even human language?
You two are in cahoots, I'm nothing!
It was saddened by Xie Feng's favoritism, so it withdrew its brilliance and went into a solitary depression.
"Senior brother, have you seen Master?" Xie Feng asked.
"Since completing my training, I have been wandering the world and have never seen him."
"I've seen it! Master is injured!"
"What?!"
Ge Ya's expression changed.
Xie Feng said seriously, "At that time, I accidentally entered a chaotic space-time and saw my master fighting with a mysterious person, covered in wounds! It was a mirage-like space-time projection, and I couldn't go to help!"
Ge Ya's gaze turned cold and sharp. He muttered to himself, "It seems this emperor must embark on the next chapter of his journey..."
Xie Feng asked again, "Where is Senior Brother?"
Ge Ya said, "When you were five years old, our eldest brother left the sect. We exchanged messages a few times afterward, but now we've heard nothing from him! However, this guy always likes to hide somewhere and read books, and he never comes out unless there's something to do!"
Xie Feng nodded.
The eldest brother loves peace and quiet and always likes to stay in various secret rooms and caves. Back in the Xuanji Sect, he even took over Mung Bean's nest!
"By the way, junior brother, how did you get up here? I remember there's a cosmic boundary in the Lower Realm," Ge Ya asked.
