NOVPUB"How did it come to this!"
He quickly dodged the fierce winds scraping down from the black hole in the sky.
He desperately concealed his own aura.
Shen Fu’s heart was a tumult of shock, confusion, bewilderment... an intertwining of complex emotions, indistinguishable from each other.
After his defeat against the cultivator of the Incense Fire Dao from the Kingdom of Immortals, he had immediately fled thousands of miles away, seeking an opportunity to strike back and rescue his brother’s incarnation.
However, the collapse of Jin forced him to retreat further.
The appearance of the Sky Rift made him immediately realize that the situation had completely exceeded his initial expectations.
He dared not hesitate and instantly fled tens of thousands of miles.
While always keeping an eye on the changes in the outside world.
Yet the subsequent deaths of Sect Master Shangguan and Elder Han were beyond his belief.
Being within the Demon Sect, he had, of course, heard of the various exploits of this sect master and supreme elder.
Such a Sect Master Shangguan, who had once dominated the Three Sects and One Clan of Fenglin Continent with the primitive Demonic Sect.
Such an old monster who had schemed deeply and survived for so long.
To think… he was just gone like that?
Not only the cultivators of Immortal Ascension from the Demon Sect but also those from Jin kept falling one after another.
"Damn it! Even the cultivators of Immortal Ascension from Wanxiang Sect have fallen… I don’t even know how my brother is."
Shen Fu was exceedingly anxious.
Just then, the figure of an old man in a golden-threaded black robe fluttered out from his body.
It was indeed Jiang Taiyin, the Tool Master.
He looked up solemnly at the black holes and rifts in the sky.
"Old Devil Jiang, what exactly is happening here?"
Jiang Taiyin’s expression was grave, "I fear it has something to do with Ye’s Ancestor from Huangji Continent breaking the Realm Membrane of Little Cang World… I can feel it, this world seems to reject me."
"Reject? What do you mean?"
Shen Fu was puzzled.
Jiang Taiyin’s expression darkened:
"Rejection means that this world is going to strike against us…"
"Cultivators derive their power from the world, yet fail to utilize it for the world, now it seems it wants us to give it back!"
Shen Fu was startled.
Sensing danger, he rapidly moved to avoid a massive wave of fire falling from the sky, then couldn’t help but ask concernedly,
"Is there any way to repair that Realm Membrane?"
Jiang Taiyin’s expression grew darker:
"Repair? Do you remember the Membrane Eye I mentioned when we were in Chen State?"
"Those… aren’t they just greatly enlarged Membrane Eyes? It’s just that the earlier ones never truly broke."
Shen Fu was shaken, looking at him incredulously:
"You mean they are all…"
"What else."
Jiang Taiyin watched as figures approached the black holes in the sky, his eyes reflecting a trace of respect.
He sighed,
"These Taoist friends, with their generous tragic songs, throwing themselves into death, can truly be regarded as saints!"
"All Saints returning to heaven, how majestic!"
Shen Fu fell silent.
His cultivation was limited, and he could only see the black holes in the sky disappearing without understanding the reason.
However, at this moment, he couldn’t help but feel reverential.
But then he frowned and said,
"The heavens cannot accommodate these cultivators, can’t they accommodate the Nascent Souls either?"
Jiang Taiyin shook his head:
"Ease your mind, at most, it’s probably just us cultivators of Immortal Ascension that it can’t accommodate. As far as I know, a similar situation occurred in Little Cang World thousands of years ago, initially, cultivators of Void Refining were permitted, and some even endured until reaching the Unification Realm before their Cultivation Ascension. It’s just a repetition of the past."
Shen Fu suddenly realized, looking at Jiang Taiyin:
"Old Devil Jiang, you’re not also…"
Jiang Taiyin’s face became much more serene:
"As a cultivator, what is there to fear in death? The supreme elders and the sect master of the Demon Sect are all dead, and your teacher will probably not live much longer, so there’s no need to worry about being turned into an incarnation by him, even if I go, I’d rest easy."
Shen Fu stunned.
From Chen State all the way here, he had been constantly bickering with this man who was both a teacher and a friend.
Yet, over the years, it was this man who had accompanied him along the way, teaching him numerous spells by hand, helping him find treasures, and cultivate, making him who he was today.
If asked who he respected most in his heart, it was undoubtedly his brother, Wang Ba.
But if asked about the closest person…
"You don’t need to worry… my Primordial Spirit barely holding together, even slain by Thunder Tribulation, with a bit of my True Spirit indestructible, entering reincarnation in this world, who knows, maybe one day you will need to awaken me!"
Jiang Taiyin laughed heartily.
Shen Fu, unusually, did not contradict him, but his eyes looking at the old man had a touch of sadness and gentleness.
Jiang Taiyin, not used to being unmocked by Shen Fu, was a bit unaccustomed and changed the subject:
"I have already imparted all my knowledge to you, do you still have any questions? Ask quickly, otherwise, once I turn to ash, within this Little Cang World, you’ll find no one else to ask."
Shen Fu was about to speak.
However, at the edge of his mouth, a smile suddenly appeared, and his tone subtly changed:
"My good disciple, I have finally found you!"
Jiang Taiyin’s expression changed abruptly:
"Liang Qiuyu!"
On Shen Fu’s face, a kind and benevolent old face suddenly appeared. 𝚗o𝚟pub.𝚌𝚘𝚖
It was indeed Liang Qiuyu, the former great elder of the primitive Demonic Sect!
He looked at Jiang Taiyin floating outside, his face showing no surprise, instead, it carried a smile:
"Jiang Taoist friend has been painstakingly nurturing my disciple, more diligently than I, his teacher. Thank you, Jiang Taoist friend, for your devoted cultivation over the years, otherwise... I wouldn’t have so quickly obtained such a top-grade Ten Directions True Demon Incarnation!"
