Loose Immortal
Yi Xuan really wished there was a mirror in front of him at that moment, so he could see how terrible his face looked.
Through Yi Xuan's brainwaves, No. 01 understood Yi Xuan's thoughts very well.
Then, a Pangu emerged from the Artifact Sect Great Hall, carrying a mirror that appeared out of nowhere.
The sudden appearance of the Pangu relieved Yi Xuan's tension.
Seeing the old man in front of him looking at the mirror in Pangu's hand with a puzzled expression, Yi Xuan quickly commanded in his mind for Pangu to return.
Yi Xuan had no intention of resisting the old man who had suddenly appeared.
Regardless of the opponent's strength, it's useless now.
The shortcomings of technology are clearly exposed in the face of such close-range threats.
Given the distance of about ten meters between Yi Xuan and the old man, even a Nascent Soul could instantly kill Yi Xuan.
However, unlike Yi Xuan, whose face was grim, the old man maintained a smile and looked at the returning Pangu with great interest in his eyes.
Seeing this, Yi Xuan smiled awkwardly and said, "Senior! If you like, I'll give you a few when you leave!"
Trading several Pangu for one's own life is definitely a worthwhile trade; the only question is whether the other party is willing to accept it.
At this moment, Yi Xuan was unable to distinguish whether the other party was friend or foe, which made Yi Xuan very uneasy.
Soon, the old man's attention shifted from the vanished Pangu to Yi Xuan.
Seeing that Yi Xuan was sweating more and more, the old man finally made a move.
With a wave of his hand, a familiar scene appeared before Yi Xuan: the nuclear explosion in the Eternal Sea more than half a month ago, which the old man displayed using Imaging Technique.
"Kid, you did this, didn't you?"
Faced with the question, Yi Xuan knew that denying it was pointless, so he could only nod with a grim expression.
Seeing that Yi Xuan was honest, the old man smiled and canceled the Imaging Technique. Then he stretched out his palm and looked at Yi Xuan, "And what about this thing?"
Faced with the other person's empty hand, Yi Xuan did not understand what the other person meant.
Just as he was about to speak, No. 01's voice rang in his mind. "Boss, the other side has our miniature robots!"
Upon hearing No. 01's explanation, Yi Xuan's expression remained unchanged, but his heart was in turmoil.
How did they obtain my miniature robot? No wonder I didn't see anything.
This is the drawback of micro-robots. Because Yi Xuan's strength is insufficient, even Yi Xuan, the owner, cannot see the unactivated micro-robots with the naked eye.
Yi Xuan thought back carefully and realized that he had only used this kind of miniature robot twice.
One instance was against the Hai Qingshi, and ultimately, when the Hai Qingshi disappeared, he also lost control of the micro-robot.
Another instance was when Chu Longcheng ascended to immortality, when he placed the miniature robot on the two people who claimed to be from the Mystic Gate sect.
However, after those two people left, Yi Xuan also lost control of the robot.
If the old man came because of the former, then Yi Xuan is in trouble; the old man may very well be here to avenge Hai Qingshi.
If it's the latter, then Yi Xuan wouldn't be too worried.
Although he didn't know much about the Mystic Gate, judging from the attitude of those two Mystic Gate members towards Chu Longcheng, the other party shouldn't have any reason to deal with him.
Moreover, judging from the old man's appearance, he should be Human Clan, which greatly reduces the likelihood of the Hai Qingshi gang seeking revenge.
But Yi Xuan still cautiously asked the old man, "Senior, do you know about Hai Qingshi?"
Seeing the old man shake his head, Yi Xuan felt relieved and nodded with a smile, saying, "That's right, the thing in your hand, senior, is indeed mine!"
"Oh?"
The old man noticed that after he said he didn't know the person Yi Xuan was talking about, the boy's fear had disappeared. So, somewhat puzzled, he asked, "What does the thing in my hand have to do with the person you're asking about?"
Yi Xuan smiled and said, "It's nothing. But since you don't recognize him, I can roughly guess where you're from, and I know you're probably not here to cause me trouble!"
After hearing Yi Xuan's explanation, the old man did not press further about the Hai Qingshi, but instead asked with a smile, "Then tell me, where did I come from?"
"Mystic Gate!"
"Hahaha! Interesting! As expected of a descendant of the High Antiquity Artifact Sect, very interesting!"
"Senior! You..."
Before Yi Xuan could finish speaking, the old man suddenly appeared before the Artifact Sect Great Hall, touching a pillar outside and muttering to himself, "Ah, perhaps they were right back then!"
Yi Xuan didn't understand the meaning behind the old man's words, but he guessed that the old man was expressing his feelings about the former disciples of the High Antiquity Artifact Sect.
"Boy, have you discovered anything left behind by the High Antiquity Artifact Sect in this Artifact Sect Great Hall?"
Upon hearing the old man's question, Yi Xuan nodded and said, "There is indeed a secret chamber in the main hall, but it's empty except for twelve large characters written on the wall!"
What word?
"No cultivation of immortality! No cultivation of immortality! No cultivation of immortality!"
Yi Xuan didn't mind telling the old man these twelve inexplicable words. After all, he had been in the Artifact Sect Great Hall for so long, but he still didn't understand what the disciples of the High Antiquity Artifact Sect meant!
"Senior, what exactly do these twelve characters mean?"
Seeing Yi Xuan's curious expression, the old man sighed and said, "This is the High Antiquity Artifact Sect's final warning to the Cultivation Realm!"
"What does this mean? Is there some crisis in the Cultivation Realm? Why are you issuing a warning?"
Unfortunately, the old man stopped answering Yi Xuan's question and instead tossed Yi Xuan a Jade Slip, saying, "Don't ask anymore, young man. You'll know when you reach that level. Telling you now will only cause you more trouble!"
After saying that, the old man actually turned to leave.
Confused, Yi Xuan quickly interjected, "Senior, please wait! What is this?"
Seeing the Jade Slip that Yi Xuan was pointing to, the old man smiled and said, "This is a legacy from the High Antiquity Artifact Sect. Since you have become their successor, this should belong to you!"
After he finished speaking, the old man's body slowly faded away in front of Yi Xuan until it disappeared completely.
Yi Xuan suddenly realized that he didn't even know the other person's name.
So he could only stare regretfully at the Jade Slip in his hand.
Just then, No. 01's voice rang in Yi Xuan's mind. "Boss, there's something wrong with that guy!"
"Question?"
"The other party's situation is very similar to that of Chu Longcheng, who is currently ascending to immortality!"
"What's the meaning?"
"I detected both Spiritual Qi and Immortal Qi energy within the other person!"
"How is that possible? Couldn't the other person ascend to immortality at any time? Why...?"
At this point, Yi Xuan paused, then asked uncertainly, "Loose Immortal?"
"I'm afraid so!"
