Destiny is ashes

Chapter 1096 The Legend of Mount Tai
His form was seven parts similar to Xie Mingfei's true form, but he was more ancient and stronger.

His body was surrounded by a terrifying field that even light could not escape, making him appear to outsiders as a pitch-black silhouette.

The terrifying end, the power of calamity that negated everything, suppressed all the abnormalities of the demons.

"Ancestor!"

Xie Mingfei landed in front of the ancient behemoth and shouted, "It's time to wake up!"

"Something big is happening!"

The giant beast slowly opened its eyes.

In an instant, all the darkness vanished, as if it had never existed. Color reappeared on the old Fei, with a single eye, white head, black horns, and dark scales. Its form was ancient and majestic, and the mere act of awakening caused the entire seal of the Great Abyss to tremble.

Gazing calmly at his junior, His voice resonated directly in his mind: "I know you wouldn't call me unless it's something important—what is it?"

"An Jing, the current Heavenly Mandate Nature Master, has found a way to go to the Tianyuan Realm and the Great Wilderness Realm. He invited me to summon the patriarchs and celestial venerables of all sects to go together!"

Xie Mingfei spoke succinctly, his tone tinged with barely concealed excitement: "I thought you'd be interested, Ancestor, so I came back to wake you up as soon as possible!"

【The Celestial Realm?】

The current generation's Tai Shan Zhi Fei murmured softly: "[I remember, that was a realm created by the disciples of the Great Immortal Huai Xu. The Great Wilderness Realm was also created there, and it was one of the cores of our heavens in the past...]"

[If nothing unexpected had happened, the Tianyuan Realm should have already fallen into the hands of the Holy Demons. It seems it hasn't? That's truly astonishing.]

As for the Great Wilderness Realm... it's probably already completely transformed into a 'Great Abyss' like this place, hasn't it?

"Huh?" Xie Mingfei was taken aback. He hadn't expected his ancestor to know so much. "Ancestor, you know quite a lot?"

The true spirit's inheritance is in our blood, and our lifespan is long. Over the long course of time, the loss of knowledge is naturally much smaller. You will know this when you become a Celestial Venerable.

Tai Shan Zhi Fei said indifferently, "Although I cannot call out the name of that mysterious space-time you inhabit, it is recorded in the ancient Daoist court. Originally, we could have remembered its name, but like the seal of Taiyuan, we must learn to 'forget' in order to better protect the secret."

But forgetting itself can be a form of corruption, so there always needs to be a group of people who never forget. Mingfei, you are one of those people.

"I can't say I'll never forget, I just want to remember the more interesting things."

Xie Mingfei laughed heartily, still remembering his goal: "So, Ancestor, are you willing to go? Besides, I heard from my friend that although living on a floating continent is indeed a bit strange, it's not as dangerous as the Great Abyss, is it?"

[Floating above the sea of ​​clouds, doesn't that mean the Abyss of Demons lies below?]

Tai Shan Zhi Fei shook his head, his tone matter-of-fact: "If we hadn't succeeded in sealing it off, Huai Xu might not be safe, but at least a third of the land in Hongzhou of the Southern Wilderness is probably floating in the sky now."

"Is that so?" Upon hearing this, Xie Mingfei couldn't help but shake his head. He looked around at the bottomless layers of prison and felt it was unbelievable: "But we are not the only ones in such a sealed place... Just thinking that there are nearly ten such sealed places in Huaixu makes me feel scared."

What's there to be afraid of? You'll be here in the future to guard and suppress these monsters.

Taishan Zhifei was indifferent: "Our talents are best suited to dealing with this situation, ending all change, and ending all constancy. It's not that I really want to sleep here forever, but I have no choice."

【but……】

His calm tone carried a hint of obvious interest, even a slight smile: "I do indeed want to go and see. Now, with such a significant change in the Heavenly Dao of Emptiness, even allowing us Heavenly Venerables to travel to other worlds, I fear I have truly awaited the opportunity to merge with the Dao."

[Anjing is indeed a variable and an anomaly in this life. I will definitely go there. Please tell him... However, this will take some time. The seal of Taiyuan still needs some means to protect it.] "Hmm." Xie Mingfei was quite curious: "I have never seen you leave Dayuan before, Ancestor. And what kind of means is it that can make the prison have no jailers?"

【Hi】

Tai Shan Zhi Fei possessed a remarkably youthful spirit. A sly glint flashed in his single eye, and he even chuckled mischievously: "Of course, we'll call upon the largest philanthropic sect in the Huai Xu Realm… I'll have Qing Du come and personally guard the gate for me. I've noticed he's been quite busy lately; it'll be good to have him do some more work!"

Xie Mingfei couldn't help but laugh: "Brilliant, absolutely brilliant!"

Just before Xie Mingfei was about to take his leave, Taishan Zhifei said, "By the way, Mingfei, take this with you."

As he spoke, a scale fell off, condensed, shrank, and flew towards Xie Mingfei. The white-haired youth grabbed the jade slip, probed it with his divine sense, and instantly refined it. He immediately raised his eyebrows: "'My View of the True Body of the Five Punishments of the Western Extremes'?"

All the calamities and beasts that plague the world were once under the command of the Western Mother. This method is a summary of the cultivation experience of our ancestors, the source of our Taishan cultivation techniques, and the means to seal away these many calamities and evil spirits.

Tai Shan Zhi Fei Dao: "The Master of Nature is willing to share his karma and has invited us to a banquet. We can't go empty-handed… Let's give this to him; he'll need it. I have a feeling he'll definitely need this sealing technique originating from 'punishment and calamity.'"

"Row."

Xie Mingfei carefully put away the scale tablet, then nodded, bid farewell to the ancestor, and his figure transformed into a stream of light, leaving Taiyuan and returning to Jinyuantian.

Taishan Zhifei watched him disappear, then closed his eyes once more.

In the next instant, His body transformed into a jet-black ray of light, shooting straight into the sky.

[Tianyuan, Great Wilderness...]

In an instant, the will of Taishan Zhifei left the Great Abyss and appeared in the void beyond the Embracing Void Heaven and Earth. Looking towards the boundless void in the distance, it murmured to itself: "The stage has grown larger, and so has the calamity of the great era..."

I suspect I wasn't the only one invited.

indeed so.

At this very moment, a vast light also shone brightly in both the Ancestral Dragon Palace and Tianji Mountain, piercing straight into the void and attracting the attention of many Heavenly Venerables from other sects.

Enormous changes are brewing and emerging.

And at the same time.

In the far reaches of the sky, Xie Mingfei, who had just returned to the platform, saw An Jing and You Ruhui experimentally using the Western Extreme True Body, constantly devouring various metals and spiritual objects to test the effects.

Xie Mingfei was extremely familiar with the aura of this method...

Isn't this the calamity power of his Taishan lineage, originating from the same source as the [True Body of the Five Punishments of the Western Extremes]?

"what?"

Xie Mingfei was completely shocked, and he blurted out instinctively, "So you can do that!"

"Huh?" An Jing looked up, somewhat puzzled, and then smiled modestly.

"Just now."
