After being reincarnated, I cultivated immortality.

At this moment, the council hall of the Mountain and Sea Sect was filled with influential figures in the cultivation world of the Cloud Sea Continent. Any decision made by any one of them could affect the entire cultivation world.

Chang Pingyuan sat in the main seat, with Xingye, the second-in-command of the Demon Realm, on his right, followed by Ling Jingfeng, the sect leader of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, and Fuqu, the hall master of the Hibiscus Palace; on his left were Xue Liuli, the Demon Queen, Dong Wuyue, the valley master of the Medicine King Valley, Zhong Zhen, the sect leader of the Xuanji Sect, and Wuxiang, the abbot of the Maitreya Sect.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Chang Pingyuan glanced around and said, "I'm sure everyone knows the purpose of our visit and has already sent people to verify it, so I won't say any more."

The others looked solemn and nodded. After all, how could they not verify such a big matter?

Ling Jingfeng of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect gazed into the distance with a worried expression, and sighed softly, "Could it be that the earth-shattering battle of a thousand years ago is about to be repeated? That incomparably powerful seal, I wonder how much terrible price it cost and how many outstanding talents were sacrificed to forge it!"

His eyes were filled with endless sorrow and worry, as if they could travel through time and space back to that era of war and devastation.

Recalling the scenes of countless heroes who risked their lives to fight against evil forces, Ling Jingfeng couldn't help but shed tears. He was only a few years old at the time, but those brave and fearless figures are still deeply imprinted in his heart.

But now, this seal is showing signs of weakening. What does this mean? Could it be that the dark forces that were sealed away back then are about to rise again, bringing a new wave of calamity to the world?

Ling Jingfeng clenched his fists tightly, secretly vowing to protect this continent at all costs and never let the tragedy repeat itself!

Hearing his words, everyone looked sorrowful.

They didn't dwell on their somber thoughts for long before continuing their discussion.

Zhong Lingzi of Xuanji Sect said, "After receiving the message from Sect Master Chang, Ancestor Hong Chen used half of his cultivation to divine the future of the cultivation world and obtained the twelve-word mantra: 'When the Five Spirits appear, evil spirits are destroyed; when divine beasts emerge, the crisis is resolved.'"

Chang Pingyuan asked with concern, "How is Daoist Hong Chen?"

Everyone turned to look on with concern.

Zhong Lingzi replied, "I am now fine, but I suffered some backlash from peeking into the secrets of heaven. I will be fine in a few days."

Seeing that he said that, everyone felt relieved.

Xingye pondered for a moment before speaking: "The divine beasts are common knowledge: Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise. However, they all perished in the great war a thousand years ago. Now, only the White Tiger's inheritance site remains in the Demon Realm. As far as I know, the Tiger Clan sends a batch of tiger cubs there every ten years, but none of them have received the inheritance."

After pausing for a moment, he continued, "When I get back, I will persuade the Tiger Clan Chief to open up the Land of Inheritance."

Upon hearing this, the most excited person was undoubtedly Ling Jingfeng of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect! You see, the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect may not have much else, but it has an astonishing number of all kinds of demonic beasts, and the number of disciples who have signed contracts with tigers is countless!

If one is fortunate enough to enter this legendary land of inheritance for training, the benefits will be extraordinary. After all, such a rare opportunity is not something you can come across easily!

However, given the inappropriate timing, he could only suppress his emotions and sincerely say, "That would be perfect. Thank you for your righteousness, Demon King Xingye."

Xingye replied indifferently, "It's not for you."

Ling Jingfeng wasn't annoyed by the cold shoulder; he was still happy. No matter the reason, he was always the one who would benefit, so it wasn't a big deal.

Fuqu spoke up, "I'll have to trouble the Starry Night Demon King with this matter."

The others echoed this, and Xingye nodded to indicate that she would take it to heart.

Dong Wuyue spoke up: "Now we need to send more people out to find the inheritance sites of the other three divine beasts. A secret realm appeared in the East Sea some time ago. I have already sent people to investigate. I will inform everyone if there is any news."

Chang Pingyuan said, "In that case, we will await the Valley Master's good news."

The people around them nodded in agreement, knowing that there was nothing they could do but wait.

“Amitabha, now we can only search for the divine beast inheritance slowly, but we don’t know whether the Five Spirits are human or creatures?” Abbot Wuxiang said.

Zhong Lingzi continued, "As for who it is, we don't know. Our cultivation is not high enough to find out. The ancestor also said that it will appear when the time is right, so there is no need to do it deliberately."

Chang Pingyuan: "Even so, we only need to focus on the inheritance of the divine beast. The Mountain and Sea Sect will send people to help with the sealing of the First Line of Heaven, but the main thing is for Sect Master Zhong to send people to repair the seal."

Zhong Lingzi replied earnestly, "Of course, it is my duty."

Other sects expressed their willingness to send their elite disciples to assist Xuanji Sect. Although these sects usually act independently, they are able to unite and fight together against common enemies and crises.

Upon hearing this, Blood Glaze finally spoke: "My demon race will also send people there."

Xingye also expressed her opinion.

Chang Pingyuan frowned and said, "Recently, the evil cultivators have become increasingly reckless and unruly. I have pondered this for many days and feel that all of this is inextricably linked to that mysterious and unpredictable One-Line Heaven Seal. It is likely that the sealed objects within it are already stirring, and many have already escaped their restraints and seen the light of day again!" His voice was full of worry, and everyone who heard this looked solemn and fell into deep thought.

Wu Xiang had the right to speak on this matter: "I encountered this on my way here..." He then recounted the events in detail.

"Damn it! These evil cultivators must be plotting something."

They then discussed how to find the evil creature that had escaped from the seal, as well as how to locate the divine beast and kill the evil cultivator.

…………

The banquet was very lively, with people gathering in twos and threes to talk, drink spirit wine, and eat spirit fruit.

"Chi Yi, you can't even imagine what I've been through this past year! My grandfather forcibly confined me, and even laid down a rule that I must never step out of my room until I've reached the Foundation Establishment stage! My God, can you understand the pain of being cut off from the world in such darkness? It felt like every day was an eternity! Every day was spent buried in cultivation, with barely any rest. Look at me, I've lost so much weight from long-term overwork and lack of nutrition..." Ling Lili hugged Chi Yi tightly, tears streaming down her face like a burst dam, pouring out all the grievances and suffering she had endured over the past year.

Chi Yi patted her back to comfort her, and gestured to Hua Rongyi beside her to think of a solution.

Hua Rongyi shook his head with a look of disgust and spread his hands to indicate that there was nothing he could do.
