Purple Yang Falls, His Death Kept Secret!

Clear Blue Kingdom, the main peak of the Supreme Purity Sect.

Deep within the main hall, the light was dim, and the flickering flames of a few eternal lamps conveyed a sense of deathly stillness, as if the sun were setting.

True Lord Purple Yang sat cross-legged on the jade couch.

He was already old, and the continuous war with the Demon Race in recent years had damaged his vitality. In addition, the Grand Purity Sect's destruction of his Supreme Purity's millennium-long plan had damaged his mind and spirit...

A combination of factors has caused him to lose his former aloofness.

His face was covered with brown spots, his skin clung to his bones like withered tree bark, and his whole body exuded a strong aura of Decay and decay.

He once dominated the Profound Spirit Continent, enjoying unparalleled fame, but now he is like a candle flickering in the wind, ready to be extinguished at any moment...

Below the main hall stood two figures.

The man on the left, dressed in a green robe and with a Supreme Purity Sect appearance, is none other than True Lord Fang Yi, the current number two figure in the Shangqing Sect, Nascent Soul Middle Stage.

The person on the right was wearing a gray-white Daoist robe, his face was as pale as paper, and he occasionally let out a suppressed cough.

It was True Lord Yuanshang, who was also at the Nascent Soul Middle Stage realm, but he had injured his origin during the battle with the Liang Kingdom and had not yet recovered.

"Senior brother..."

True Lord Fang Yi looked at the old man on the bed, his voice trembling slightly, and his eyes reddening slightly.

True Lord Purple Yang slowly opened his eyes, his cloudy gaze sweeping over the two of them. He forced a bitter smile and murmured:

"Don't be sad. Even after a thousand years of cultivation, death is inevitable. I've lived long enough, but... I can't die in peace."

He coughed violently, spitting out a pool of black blood tinged with death.

True Lord Yuanshang stepped forward, intending to transfer spiritual energy, but was stopped by Purple Yang raising his hand.

"Don't waste your energy. Your life force has dried up, and your time is up."

True Lord Purple Yang, panting, his breath steady, his gaze gradually sharpening, as if in a final burst of energy before death, carefully instructs:

"After my death, the burden of the Supreme Purity Sect will fall on your two shoulders."

"Tongming is, after all, a remnant of the Azure Peak Sect. In addition, he has a fiery temper and is prone to impulsiveness, making him unsuitable for important tasks."

"Ziyan, Mingyuan, and Hanyuan are the three newly promoted Nascent Soul in the last hundred years. Their cultivation is still shallow, and they cannot handle the overall situation."

"Only the two of you, the pillars of strength, can ensure the Indestructibility of my Supreme Purity lineage."

True Lord Fang Yi clasped his hands and bowed deeply. "Senior Brother, rest assured, as long as Fang Yi has a breath left, the Supreme Purity Sect will not fall."

True Lord Purple Yang nodded slightly, his gaze turning westward, towards the direction of the Myriad Demon Domain.

"As for that Lightning Bear... Shi Jian."

Mentioning this name, a fierce hatred and apprehension flashed in True Lord Purple Yang's eyes.

"This demon's power is unprecedented. Having just Nascent Soul Formation, it was able to severely injure that Sword Spirit; now, the three Demon Race realms are secretly colluding, with its Myriad Demon Domain seemingly leading the way. Human Race is in grave danger."

"Those hypocrites from the Grand Purity Sect will never fight to the death with the Demon Race in order to preserve their strength."

"You must all remember this: never place your hopes on Grand Purity!"

True Lord Purple Yang grabbed Fang Yi's wrist, his withered fingers like iron clamps.

"Endure!"

"From this day forward, the Supreme Purity Sect must remain steadfast during this darkest hour. Even if the Demon Race turns Clear Blue Kingdom upside down, we must not make a move until they reach our mountain gate!"

"That bear is cunning; it sets traps everywhere to lure you in. Don't fall into its trap."

"Consolidate all resources and focus all your efforts on nurturing the next generation. After I die, you must... safeguard the legacy of our ancestors!"

As soon as he finished speaking, True Lord Purple Yang's eyes widened suddenly, and the look in his eyes froze instantly.

The hand that had been gripping Fang Yi's wrist fell limply to the ground.

A giant of the Human Race, the pillar of the Supreme Purity Sect, passed away with resentment in his heart.

Boom!

When heaven and earth resonated, a powerful being at the Nascent Soul perished, and heaven and earth grieved together.

Supreme Purity Sect, the once clear sky was instantly covered with dark clouds, and blood-red raindrops were brewing in the clouds, a desolate aura of the Great Dao about to spread in all directions.

If such a strange phenomenon were to spread, the entire Profound Spirit Continent would likely know that the Supreme Purity Sect had lost its strongest fighting force.

"Oh no, it's a celestial phenomenon!" True Lord Fang Yi's expression changed drastically.

"Don't worry, junior brother, leave it to me."

True Lord Yuanshang let out a cold shout, enduring the injuries within his body, and formed hand seals like a wheel.

"Ethereal Domain, sealed!"

Buzz--!

An extremely profound fluctuation of the Space Dao erupted from True Lord Yuanshang's body.

He opened his mouth and spat out a rhombus-shaped transparent crystal. The crystal spun around and transformed into an invisible transparent film, instantly enveloping the entire hall and even the summit of Purple Yang Peak.

The crimson celestial phenomenon that was about to spread was tightly contained by this Space Dao membrane, preventing even a trace from leaking out, until it was sealed inside.

From the outside, Purple Yang Peak still appears shrouded in purple qi, calm and serene.

Inside the main hall, True Lord Yuanshang coughed up a mouthful of blood, his aura becoming even weaker. However, he desperately maintained the operation of the Space Dao Law Treasure, sealing away the lingering Dao aura of True Lord Purple Yang's fall within this small space.

"Junior brother, your injuries haven't healed yet, and you forcibly activated the ' Realm Void Stone '..."

True Lord Fang Yi quickly stepped forward to support him.

True Lord Yuanshang wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, shook his head, and stared intently at the remains of True Lord Purple Yang on the jade bed.

"My senior brother just passed away; we absolutely cannot let the outside world know about his demise."

"Given the current situation, with the Demon Race race eyeing us covetously, it's inevitable that the Grand Purity Sect will take advantage of our misfortune; if they find out that Senior Brother Purple Yang is dead, the Supreme Purity Sect will likely face annihilation in an instant!"

True Lord Fang Yi took a deep breath, suppressing the grief in his heart, his eyes gradually turning cold and sharp.

"My senior brother's intention is to keep the death a secret."

"Right."

True Lord Yuanshang, panting, said, "Just like usual, announce to the public that Senior Brother Purple Yang is in seclusion recuperating from his injuries."

"For the time being, you and I will handle all matters both inside and outside the sect."

True Lord Fang Yi nodded, looked at the remains of True Lord Purple Yang, waved his sleeve, and a cold wave swept in, sealing the remains to prevent the death energy from leaking out.

"Senior brother is right, we must be patient."

A hint of resentment flashed in True Lord Fang Yi's eyes as he said, "Shi Jian has been lying low for hundreds of years, raising a bloodthirsty demon army."

"Even if it costs us our entire foundation, the Supreme Purity Sect will still strive to cultivate a group of exceptional talents capable of shouldering great responsibilities!"

True Lord Yuanshang put away the Realm Void Stone, the strange phenomena in the main hall gradually subsided.

"And Tongming and the others..."

"Keep this a secret for now. I'll talk to them and keep them calm," True Lord Fang Yi said in a deep voice. "Anyone who dares to cause trouble at this critical juncture will face consequences, even if it means losing our fellow disciples!"

The main hall fell silent once more.

The two powerful figures at the Nascent Soul Middle Stage stood in the shadows, like two lone wolves licking their wounds. The backbone of the Supreme Purity Sect was broken, but they had to use their own blood and bones to forcefully support this land.
