"Nine parts truth, one part falsehood..."
"Your cultivation has now reached the pinnacle of the Martial Dao Red Dust Immortal, and no one dares to monitor you anymore."
"When Wu Shuang'er was here, I didn't even dare to appear before you."
Qi Wushuang said.
Chen Jiuyang said in a deep voice, "Then what is your purpose?"
Qi Wushuang said, "To prevent the Life and Death Nether Book from closing, thereby turning this place into a second Heavenly Realm."
"Chen Jiuyang, if this continues, when your cultivation reaches Immortal Emperor, you will merge with the Death Tome and become a tool controlled by the mastermind, manipulating this realm for eternity."
Chen Jiuyang's heart trembled again. In the past, Qin Shujian and others told him that the Immortal Realm wanted to control all beings for eternity and sought the Life and Death Nether Book.
Now, it seemed the truth was reversed, and it was Qin Shujian and others, places like Chongming Sea and Crippled Elder Village, who wanted to do this.
Chen Jiuyang's Dao heart was collapsing. He asked, "Then are you going to use this ghost to kill me now?"
Qi Wushuang slowly shook his head and said, "You are mistaken."
"You haven't realized something. Since your cultivation has become increasingly powerful, you have hardly been injured. The mastermind is afraid you might make some changes."
"If I were to control this ghost to harm you now, Wu Shuang'er and the corresponding mastermind would immediately appear to save you, and I would also be exposed, making it difficult for you to escape."
"For this plan, I prepared for a long time before I could conceal others and separate the Dao power of 'Curse', allowing you to remain here."
"As things stand today, there are only two ways to break this situation."
"Wait a moment..." Chen Jiuyang suddenly said in a deep voice, "Why should I believe you?"
"If I am the reincarnation of the True Spirit of the Life Tome, why do I have no corresponding authority at all?"
Qi Wushuang said, "Because you are walking neither the Martial Dao nor the Immortal Dao... but the path of the Human Emperor trapped in a scheme..."
"I investigated for a long time. The moment you contacted Yao Zixuan, that San Hua descended upon the mountain behind your house. Thus, someone came to test you."
"To force you step by step onto the so-called path of the Human Emperor."
Chen Jiuyang's heart sank. Recalling the past, it seemed his path was truly arranged step by step, making it difficult to break free.
"As for why you should believe me, it's very simple. My duty is to allow the reincarnation of the Life and Death Nether Book to gradually regain its authority and not be controlled by others."
Qi Wushuang said, "There are two ways to break the situation. First, you can return to the Heavenly Realm with me now. After outliving this mastermind, you can return to the lower realm."
Chen Jiuyang asked, "What about my relatives?!"
Qi Wushuang slowly shook his head and said, "If you return to the Heavenly Realm with me, you cannot take your relatives with you."
Chen Jiuyang's heart sank, and he said, "Tell me the second method."
Qi Wushuang said, "The second method..."
"The person in this coffin is called 'Immortal King Shi Guang', the only Immortal King in this epoch who mastered the Law of Time. Because his Dao power and laws could transcend time, he was killed by Wu Shuang'er and the corresponding mastermind at the Immortal King realm, preventing him from advancing to Immortal Emperor..."
"Do you still remember why Qing Jue and others ascended to the Immortal Realm back then?"
"It was to eliminate 'Immortal King Shi Guang'. Fortunately, I descended in time and preserved his corpse. His immortal body still retains the Dao power of time, which can allow you to restart the future, returning to the time after you activated the Pure Yang Medical Immortal inheritance, but before you contacted Yao Zixuan."
"Hiss!" Chen Jiuyang couldn't help but gasp in shock...
So, that's how it was when Qing Jue and others ascended to the Immortal Realm...
Chen Jiuyang asked again, "I cannot abandon my relatives in this life. If I return to the past and don't interact with them, what is the point?"
Qi Wushuang said, "I have already foreseen this."
"The end of the Martial Dao is the cultivation of Great Emperor, merging with the Heavenly Heart Imprint, making further progress impossible."
"As for alternative enlightenment, it is merely stealing Immortal Dao laws with Martial Dao cultivation. You should have noticed this after refining a few laws."
Chen Jiuyang slowly nodded. He had already sensed the anomaly after achieving alternative enlightenment, no longer being purely Martial Dao.
"If you want your current relatives to be together again, you must avoid the Martial Dao and walk the Immortal Dao."
"This way, although your combat power will be weaker, you can avoid their detection."
Chen Jiuyang frowned, "I don't quite understand... for what reason do they lock onto me?"
"Pure Yang Martial Qi..." Qi Wushuang said, "Do you understand?"
"Only the Life Tome of the Life and Death Nether Book can possess the purest and most sacred Pure Yang Martial Qi. Back then, they also suspected that the Pure Yang Medical Immortal was the reincarnation of the Life Tome, so when he was at the tribulation period of Pure Yang, they made him ascend to the Lesser Immortal Realm. Seeing that the Pure Yang Medical Immortal had inner demons, they only confirmed he was not after his demise."
Chen Jiuyang took a deep breath, "So that's why the Pure Yang Medical Immortal had inner demons and passed away back then..."
"Such calculations... are truly... despair-inducing..."
Chen Jiuyang said, "In this case, I cannot activate the Pure Yang Medical Immortal's inheritance, and I have to abolish my Pure Yang body to avoid their detection..."
"Correct," Qi Wushuang said slowly.
"Have you made a decision now?"
Chen Jiuyang took a deep breath and said, "I choose the second option, to abolish my cultivation and return to the past."
"I have one last question, how should the Human Emperor system and the Five Great Sacred Lands be handled?"
Qi Wushuang said, "Have you forgotten Emperor Fuzhao? If you don't break the Human Emperor system, someone else will break it. Only then can the Golden Age begin, and the path of the Great Emperor can be walked..."
Chen Jiuyang slowly nodded.
"Are you ready..."
"The moment I activate the laws of 'Immortal King Shi Guang', they will detect it..."
"I! Am ready!" Chen Jiuyang gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with endless anger and killing intent.
Having lived for tens of thousands of years and being manipulated his entire life, Chen Jiuyang could forgive others, but he could not forgive these masterminds.
The next moment.
The 'Immortal King Shi Guang' in burial attire within the coffin suddenly spoke, "You must avenge me. This is karma."
Then, the last trace of immortal energy on 'Immortal King Shi Guang' coiled and entered Chen Jiuyang's forehead.
"Rumble!!!"
The heavens and earth trembled, and the scene before Chen Jiuyang rapidly rewound.
His soul felt like it was being swallowed by a black hole.
At this moment, Qin Shujian and others appeared. Qin Shujian, Zhuang Wu, Kunwu, Qing Jue, Emperor's Tutor, and other masterminds standing at the peak of the world revealed unwilling expressions, staring at him intently, their killing intent boundless.
They had been manipulating for millennia, and just as they were about to succeed, they had failed.
Chen Jiuyang's eyes also held killing intent, "When I kill you all in the future, I will no longer be anyone's pawn!"
