Chapter 5 The Sea is Wide Enough for Fish to Leap
Hua Yunfei sensed something was wrong. What was going on? Judging from the situation, it seemed that this old man in front of him also had some grudge against the ruthless people's lineage.
Before he could think further, Wei Yi said with a stern face:
"After the destruction of Tianxuan, the Ruthless lineage coveted the tombs of the patriarchs of the Tianxuan Holy Land..."
When the Tianxuan Holy Land attacked the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land, it was almost completely wiped out in one day, with only a handful of powerful individuals surviving.
Shocked, the various holy lands quickly reacted, and the treasures, palaces, and mines left behind by the Tianxuan Holy Land were swiftly looted.
It was around that time that they discovered that it wasn't enough for the various holy lands to divide everything of the Tianxuan Holy Land; some people had even set their sights on the tomb of the Tianxuan Patriarch.
Although they eventually discovered and stopped them, they were unable to stop those practitioners of the Devouring Heaven Demon Art.
At that time, Wei Yi and the old madman's cultivation levels were far inferior to what they are now. In addition, the forces that took action included almost all the major powers in the Eastern Wilderness. With their strength, they could only barely protect the ruins of the Tianxuan Holy Land and this stone archway.
The tomb of a sacred place, which has accumulated the remains of many powerful figures over countless years, is extremely attractive to practitioners of the Devouring Heaven Demon Art, even if only a small portion of them have survived.
Listening to Wei Yi recount the past six thousand years ago, Hua Yunfei couldn't help but sigh, this was the naked law of the jungle in the cultivation world.
No matter how glorious and powerful a holy land was in the past, as soon as it declines, other holy lands will naturally treat it as prey.
Former allies and close partners may even bury you in the ground with their own hands.
Wei Yi looked at Hua Yunfei and said, "I noticed your abnormality when you entered the stone workshop, but I never expected that you were actually a demonic fetus they had cultivated."
"I have been controlled by them since I was a child. For nearly twenty years, I have been looking for a way to break the deadlock. This time, the emergence of the Bronze Immortal Palace and the arrival of the Mad Old Man at the Tai Xuan Sect are just some of the coincidences that have given me the opportunity to risk my life."
Hua Yunfei remarked with emotion.
"These two seniors have existed for six thousand years; their cultivation must be earth-shattering. Even among the legendary Saints, they would be invincible. Could they possibly break the restrictions imposed on my sea of consciousness by the Ruthless lineage?"
As Hua Yunfei spoke, a divine light flashed between Wei Yi's brows, and a beam of light fell upon Hua Yunfei.
Suddenly, countless black lines appeared on his body, interwoven with various Dao symbols, even on his primordial spirit.
"Hmm, removing a restriction set up by a demigod isn't too difficult."
Hua Yunfei breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.
After examining the area, Wei Yi said, "However, once this restriction is destroyed, you will definitely be detected by the Ruthless Clan if you approach them again..."
Upon hearing this, Hua Yunfei immediately separated a wisp of his divine sense and said, "Please, senior, seal this restriction within this wisp of divine sense."
"My cultivation is still too shallow for me to reveal that I've escaped their control. I'll save that for a more crucial moment later!"
Wei Yi nodded, and with a flick of his hand, he removed the restriction from Hua Yunfei's body, then sealed it away in that divine thought.
Withdrawing that divine thought, Hua Yunfei examined himself internally and found no discomfort whatsoever. The problem that had troubled him for nearly twenty years had been successfully resolved, and he felt completely relaxed.
With all shackles removed, he is destined to rise in this life!
In this golden age, with stars shining brightly, how could we forget the immortal Hua Yunfei!
"I will forever remember your great kindness, senior..."
Hua Yunfei sincerely thanked Wei Yi. Although it was just a small matter to the old man in front of him, it meant a lot to Hua Yunfei.
From then on, he was free from all constraints, like a fish leaping in the vast sea or a bird soaring in the boundless sky!
Wei Yi waved his hand: "You sent my senior brother here and gave me one of the Nine Secrets. Now I've only done one thing for you. Do you have any other wishes?"
Hua Yunfei hesitated for a moment, but finally gritted his teeth and said, "I hope you can take care of the Tai Xuan Sect for me."
"I dare not ask for too much, I only ask that you protect my Tai Xuan Sect from being destroyed by the Yao Guang Sect."
After saying this, Hua Yunfei felt a little uneasy, knowing that such a request was somewhat excessive.
After all, if he were to go to war with the Ruthless Clan in the future, Wei Yi would likely face the Supreme Emperor Weapon, the Dragon Pattern Black Gold Cauldron, after agreeing to the agreement!
The old man calmly replied, "Alright, I will intervene if necessary."
"You must walk your own path, and you must resolve the karmic ties between yourself and the ruthless people."
Wei Yiping's calm words sounded like heavenly music to Hua Yunfei's ears. He was overjoyed and quickly thanked him.
The old senior's meaning was clear: he would not usually show his face, but would only come to him when the Tai Xuan Sect faced a life-or-death crisis.
But this is enough.
In fact, Hua Yunfei never intended to ask Wei Yi to come out of seclusion and cause trouble for the Yao Guang Holy Land, even though he knew that the other party had a grudge against the Ruthless People's lineage six thousand years ago.
After all these years, Wei Yi's cultivation has reached the peak of the Great Saint realm, yet he has never settled scores with the various holy lands, which already shows that Wei Yi does not harbor much hatred towards them.
After all, the destruction of the Tianxuan Holy Land was not caused by the other holy lands.
If we were in different places, and it had been another holy land that was destroyed back then, the Tianxuan Holy Land would also have joined the wave of dividing up the treasure.
But now Wei Yi is actually willing to step in and help him protect the Tai Xuan Sect. This favor is too great!
Wei Yi doesn't even need to personally intervene; he only needs to reveal his identity and utter a single sentence to ensure the safety of the Tai Xuan Sect.
Even if he becomes an enemy of the Yao Guang Holy Land in the future, he doesn't need to worry about bringing disaster upon his sect.
Hua Yunfei then began to ask Wei Yi for advice on cultivation. With a great sage right in front of him, it would be a shame not to make good use of him.
However, his current cultivation level is too shallow; he has only just entered the Four Extremes Secret Realm.
The teachings of a sage-level figure are far too advanced for him at this point.
Therefore, limited by his level of understanding, he could only record Wei Yi's cultivation experience and leave it for him to slowly comprehend in the future.
As dusk fell, Hua Yunfei rose to take his leave, as he had other important matters to attend to. As for the old madman, he naturally stayed behind at the stone workshop.
This trip was incredibly fruitful. Not only were the restrictions placed on him by the ruthless lineage lifted, but he also found two powerful backers for the Tai Xuan Sect.
With a Great Sage-level figure watching over the Tai Xuan Sect, the Yao Guang Holy Land would hesitate to act against it, fearing the consequences.
Because the gap in their cultivation levels is too great, the strongest person in the Ruthless lineage is only at the Half-Saint level. Even if they wield an Emperor Weapon, they cannot pose a threat to a Great Saint.
In the original story, it was this half-saint who controlled Hua Yunfei, preventing him from changing his fate even after reaching the second level of the Sendai Heaven.
After that, this half-saint broke through to the Great Saint realm after the world environment changed drastically, but was eventually suppressed by Weiwei.
The sacred land of Yao Guang is a place where hidden talents abound!
……
In the northern region of Quzhou, outside Chaoyang City, lies the Yunduan Mountains.
A huge ancient riverbed meanders through it. Although it has dried up, the traces it left behind prove that this place was once a mighty river long ago.
At the very center of the mountain range, a large mountain is cut in half, and the flat cross-section forms a huge platform.
Hua Yunfei stood on the huge platform, frowning as he surveyed his surroundings.
On the broken mountain platform, a fierce wind howled.
Hua Yunfei has been here for three days now. He came here immediately after saying goodbye to Wei Yi.
He tried to find the lid of the Devouring Demon Jar but came up empty-handed.
