Chapter 185: Chapter 184: Immortal Eternity_1
The Master had not expected that the Immortal Eternity would truly appear.
He indeed sensed the resurrection of the Immortal Eternity, but he did not expect that the Immortal would reveal himself so quickly. It was a completely unexpected delight.
The Master excitedly introduced himself, “Congratulations Immortal on awakening from the river of history. My name is Xie Bingzhi, I’m the Master of the Eternity Sect. The current era is three hundred thousand years from the era you know. Oh, you might not know about the Eternity Sect. We are one of the Four Great Devil Sects, aiming to awaken you from your slumber…”
The Immortal Eternity quietly listened to the endless introduction by the Master. He only chuckled twice after the Master had finished speaking, slowly saying, “Child, don’t get worked up. Everything you just said, I already knew.”
The Master cooled down, realizing that he had overstepped and acted improperly, “The Immortal knows everything.”
The Immortal Eternity shook his head, “Don’t exaggerate; who dares to claim they know everything? Even individuals like Ying Tian or Kirin can’t be considered omniscient, let alone myself who has been removed from the world for three hundred thousand years. With the constant changes in the world, who could have foreseen what would happen today?”
A drop of golden liquid appeared out of nowhere in the Immortal Eternity’s hand. With a flick, it landed in the Master’s hands.
The Master could feel the terrifying life force contained within it.
“You have been hurt by a strong adversary and would need a hundred years to heal entirely. This drop of Eternity Liquid can help you speed up your healing process.”
“Is, is this the legendary ‘Eternal’ Dao Fruit?” The Master’s hands trembled, he was experiencing the power of an immortal for the first time.
The Immortal Eternity kindly smiled, “The Immortal Dao Fruit rarely comes out. It’s just a little dew from the ‘Eternal’ Dao Fruit.”
The Master immediately took it. As soon as the golden liquid entered his mouth, it transformed into a peculiar energy, filling every inch all over his body.
The Master could clearly feel that his injuries were healing at a faster rate.
He had heard that the Immortal Dao Fruit is the foundation of every Immortal, hardly revealed to anyone. The Immortal Eternity, who had saved the human race, was so generous, allowing him to glimpse a bit of the power of the Immortal Dao Fruit.
“I already know why you summoned me. The struggle between geniuses and the goal of becoming Immortal are timeless topics…”
The Immortal Eternity raised his hands in a relaxed manner, his eyes slightly closed, and filled with a hint of turbidity, as though he was recalling ancient events. He turned it into a deep sigh, shaking his head, refrained from commenting too much about the past.
He muttered, “Does the human race need my salvation once again…?”
The Master eagerly responded, “Immortal, the Great Era of Antiquity has returned. Cultivators from everywhere are awakening. If a war erupts, only your intervention can save the human race!”
“Well then, maybe saving the human race is my mission, so why not save it once more?”
The master was about to say something, but he was interrupted by the Immortal Eternity raising his hand, “However, now I only have my soul left, and my Dao Fruit is not perfect yet. I can only temporarily reside inside this statue. I can’t protect you like I did at the end of the ancient times. If I want to return to my peak state, I need a body as a vessel.”
“May I offer mine?” The Master offered willingly.
The Immortal Eternity shook his head, “Your body is already permanently formed, moreover, you have taken many wrong paths in your cultivation. It’s hard to turn back. Opportunities to condense your Dao Fruit are slim.”
“I heard that Yun Zhi from the Seek Dao Sect is renowned as the strongest among the Five Great Immortal Sects. Could her body serve as a suitable vessel?” The Master suggested again.
Immortal Eternity shook his head, “Heh, the strongest among the Five Great Immortal Sects? As far as I know, the Five Great Immortal Sects are only five sects with some foundations on the Central Continent. Apart from these, they aren’t even on par with the Great Xia Dynasty that rules over the Central Continent.”
“Under such circumstances, how strong can the strongest person from the Five Great Immortal Sects be to let me ascend once more?”
The Master promptly lowered his head in admission of his mistake.
“There’s still time before the true outbreak of conflict in the Great Era. I have enough time to reach my peak state once again. I need a body that has just started cultivating. If I can use that body as a vessel, I can return to the realm of immortality. If I’m lucky, I might even surpass individuals like Ying Tian and Kirin to become the leader among the Five Immortals of the Ancients.”
“When the time comes, and I choose to protect the human race, the risk of falling will greatly diminish.”
“The Immortal understands.”
“You go and gather all believers who are in the Qi Refinement stage and the Foundation Establishment stage. I will personally select who is qualified to be possessed by me.”
“Yes.”
“Immortal, I want to ask you a question.”
“Child, ask.”
“Who exactly turned the stars in the sky into continents?”
It was said that the Immortal Eternity witnessed this event that ended the ancient era.
The Immortal Eternity closed his eyes and shook his head, “Your cultivation level is too low, this is not something you should know.”
The Master was somewhat disappointed, but he also admitted that he was far inferior compared to mortals.
Before leaving, the Master hesitated before asking, “Your name seems… Not like an ordinary name?”
What the Master really wanted to say was that he was running out of ideas for names and randomly fabricated the name “Sha Meless.” Why would the Immortal have such a strange name?
The Immortal Eternity didn’t say anything with a dark expression.
The Master realized that he asked the wrong question and excused himself.
After the Master left the secret room, he immediately summoned the three Vice-Masters and elders. However, only Vice Leader Jin arrived. He found out that both Vice Sect Leader Liu and Vice Sect Leader Gao had gone to the Seek Dao Sect with their Immortal treasures, risking their lives.
“They don’t even care about their lives in the struggles for power?!” The Master clenched his teeth in frustration, guessing what these two fools were thinking. They simply wanted to establish a reputation within the Seek Dao Sect to vie for the position of master.
But why did you have to go to the Seek Dao Sect of all places?
Can you come back alive after entering?
“How long has it been since the Five Elements Sect visited the Seek Dao Sect?”
“Just half a day, we haven’t received any updates.”
The Master took a deep breath, “Don’t wait for any news, they must have been caught by the Seek Dao Sect. Maybe the Seek Dao Sect already knows the location of our headquarters!”
“There’s only one thing we can do now.”
“Surrender?”
The Master was furious, “Surrender my ass! Have you ever seen a devil sect surrender to the righteous sect?”
“So going by this, are we making history?”
The Master resisted the urge to strangle this elder, saying, “Hurry and move our base to the fifth backup base!”
“Oh.”
To prevent the location of the headquarters and backup bases from being revealed in case the upper echelons were captured, each Vice-Master was only aware of one backup base.
For example, Vice Sect Leader Liu knew the location of the third backup base, and Vice Sect Leader Gao knew the location of the fourth backup base.
It’s been only two months since we moved from the second base to the third base, and it’s all because of the Seek Dao Sect.
The Eternity Sect wasted no time in packing their belongings and heading for the fifth backup base.
The Master peeked into the secret room, “Immortal, should I move you, or can you move by yourself?”
Immortal Eternity: “…”
What’s going on with this feeling of imminent danger?
