Fairy bestows immortality

Finally, following the directions, they ventured deep into Azure Dragon Valley and found an underground cave.

"Another cave?" Qingbai asked, slightly puzzled.

However, after going deeper inside, the two realized why the primordial spirit of the Crimson Sun True Lord was also in the cave.

As they ventured deeper, they discovered a faint glimmer of life deep underground, unlike the desolate landscape outside.

However, compared to the outside world, it is also a dead end.

However, it's still better than the rest of Qinglong Valley, where there's at least a glimmer of hope.

“You…you’ve finally arrived.” From the deepest part of the place, a faint fluctuation of divine consciousness came.

It is the Crimson Sun True Lord!

Deep within the underground cave, a golden primordial spirit lay on the ground.

However, he looked too weak; his primordial spirit and golden body were very faint, as if they were about to dissipate at any moment.

Weak! So weak!

This was Su Yun's first impression upon seeing him. He was clearly a powerful being who had cultivated a primordial spirit and a golden body, and his foundation was no weaker than that of the evil Buddha he had met before.

But the current situation is completely different, it's not even a concept, it feels like it could disappear at any moment.

The other party's primordial spirit still had a young face, looked very handsome, with sharp features, giving people a very steady and reliable feeling.

However, his eyes were extremely weathered, weak, and profoundly deep.

He seemed like an old man in his twilight years, who could vanish at any moment.

Su Yun and Qing Bai were affected by each other's eyes and temperament, feeling a sense of sadness and getting goosebumps.

A cultivator of extraordinary talent has been trapped here for an unknown number of years, all alone. His physical body has decayed, and only his primordial spirit is struggling to stay afloat, but he is also nearing the end of his life.

If this ancient forbidden land hadn't undergone another strange change, they wouldn't have come. Perhaps the Crimson Sun True Monarch would have truly vanished here, and no one would have known!

“I…I am here, relying on a sliver of life to sustain me. So many years have passed. If a few more years pass, even a sliver of life will dissipate, and I will perish completely.”

True Lord Chiyang once again transmitted the message through divine thought.

It wasn't that he didn't want to speak, but rather that he had become so weak that only a faint fluctuation of his primordial spirit could be transmitted, and he had almost no ability to move at all.

Of course, if it were just about aging, it wouldn't come to this.

Because those who can cultivate a primordial spirit and golden body can, without external damage, achieve immortality, almost eternal existence, and have a long lifespan, without dying.

Just like the evil Buddha who was sealed away by the Buddha Jinhan, he was still full of energy when he was born.

The Crimson Sun True Lord was severely injured after experiencing countless battles and encountering numerous strange and evil events, which damaged his primordial spirit and essence.

Qingbai asked, "Senior, how can we rescue you?"

The primordial spirit and golden body of True Lord Chiyang were too weak, and their very essence had been damaged, so neither of them dared to act rashly.

He continued, "Why don't I notify the strong members of the clan and have them come to rescue you?"

However, True Lord Chiyang immediately transmitted his thoughts through his primordial spirit: "No, do not tell anyone!"

"If word gets out at this point, the first people to arrive here might not be the ones who want to save me."

Upon hearing this, Su Yun and the other man were both taken aback, realizing the True Lord's meaning.

That's true. True Lord Chiyang was exceptionally talented back then, and had many conflicts and grudges with cultivators and lineages.

If news were to spread now that he is still alive, even the slightest leak would likely prevent him from safely returning to the Jiang family's lineage and influence!

After a moment of silence, True Lord Chiyang finally turned his gaze to Su Yun.

"Young Daoist Su Yun, may I enter your Yin-Yang Furnace to nourish my primordial spirit?"

He sent this message to Su Yun privately, without letting Qing Bai know.

Su Yun was taken aback, then slightly surprised.

The meaning of the Red Sun True Lord is to use the Yin and Yang power in his Yin-Yang Furnace to nourish himself.

This is not surprising, because he had used the Yin-Yang Furnace in the previous battle and activated its power.

It's normal that the Primordial Mystic Art of True Lord Chiyang was observing from there and could sense the Yin and Yang power within it.

The True Lord of the Crimson Sun transmitted his thoughts again: "Your alchemy furnace is quite extraordinary. The Yin and Yang power contained within it has the essence of the evolution of heaven and earth. It is the true Yin and Yang power. Although it is only in its rudimentary form, it can help me temporarily preserve my primordial spirit and gradually recover."

"Don't tell anyone during this time. Send me back to the Jiang family after I've recovered somewhat."

"I will be very grateful when the time comes!"
