Young White Horse: I, Ye Dingzhi, offer sacrifice to the Banner of Ten Thousand Souls.

Page 107

According to our grandmaster, from ancient times to the present, there has never been a case of anyone from this world going to the outer realms; it has always been gods and Buddhas from beyond the realms invading this world.

Even the legendary ancestor Su Xinghe, who could shatter the heavens with a single sword strike, had never been there.

No one knows what lies beyond the edge of that sky. Through the seal, they can only see a magnificent temple, and nothing else.

Baili Dongjun was certain that the strange gods and Buddhas he had encountered before, such as the Thousand-Handed Buddha of Flesh and Blood and the Giant Golden Hand, were definitely not the true power displayed by Wanyang Temple beyond the ends of the earth.

Just how strong is the strongest being in Wanyang Temple? Nobody knows.

Furthermore, besides Wanyang Temple, there might be even more powerful forces outside that realm, something Baili Dongjun didn't even dare to think about further.

Upon hearing these words, Yi Wenjun's relaxed mood suddenly tightened again. She gripped Ye Dingzhi's hand tightly, as if she was afraid that Ye Dingzhi would leave her again in the next second.

Ye Dingzhi turned his head, glanced at the black hole on the horizon, and said calmly, "That little girl, I've met her a few times, but back then she swore to kill me."

"As for the upheavals in this world, what do they have to do with me, Ye Dingzhi? I am not some savior. Have you forgotten who I am?"

At this point, Ye Dingzhi couldn't help but chuckle.

"Look around you, who doesn't recognize me, who isn't afraid of Ye Dingzhi, the leader of the Demonic Sect?"

Both Baili Dongjun and Sikong Changfeng were stunned. Sikong Changfeng, in particular, recalled the small team that several top experts had formed on the northern border to assassinate Ye Dingzhi. It was Li Hanyi who had initiated that team.

He still vividly remembers Li Hanyi's cold tone from that time.

What's somewhat amusing is that of the six top experts in the team, three were on Ye Dingzhi's side, their purpose being to prevent the rest of the team from attacking Ye Dingzhi.

Now, Ye Dingzhi needs to save someone who wants to kill him.

Moreover, this operation is extremely dangerous, and no one can guarantee whether one will live or die. Ye Dingzhi has been sealed for more than 20 years and has not even had time to accompany his wife and daughters before he has to participate in this life-or-death operation.

Even Baili Dongjun found this request extremely rude.

As for the safety of the world and the greater good of the nation, these concepts are laughable to Ye Dingzhi, the leader of the demonic sect.

Yi Wenjun snorted coldly, her pretty face icy: "Brother Yun has only just been born, and you, as Brother Yun's best brother, are you so eager to push him into the fire?"

Baili Dongjun looked embarrassed and cupped his hands in apology: "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry. I didn't think things through. Please take what I just said as a joke."

Beyond the ends of the earth?

Ye Dingzhi suddenly said calmly, "I will go to that place myself, but not now."

"Brother Yun!" Yi Wenjun's expression turned anxious. Even though she didn't know what existed beyond the ends of the earth, it didn't stop her from knowing how terrifying that place was.

Both Baili Dongjun and Sikong Changfeng are among the strongest in the world, ranking high on the list of the most powerful. Neither of them has confidence, and even Snow Moon City has been destroyed.

Now they're sending Brother Yun to that outer realm? What's the difference between that and sending him to his death?

Yi Wenjun wanted to say something more, but when she saw Ye Dingzhi raise his hand, she stopped talking.

Ever since she met Brother Yun on the day of her wedding at Prince Jingyu's mansion more than 20 years ago, she has noticed that Brother Yun has changed.

No matter what she says, she can't change Yun Ge's decision.

"Let's go," Ye Dingzhi said softly.

Baili Dongjun watched the two figures gradually disappear into the distance on the horizon and sighed deeply.

For some reason, he found himself somewhat envious of Brother Yun's carefree attitude.

"Ye Dingzhi seems to have returned to normal. He was sealed for twenty years, but unexpectedly he suddenly attained enlightenment and broke through to a higher realm. The demonic energy that used to affect and trouble him can no longer affect him," Sikong Changfeng said in a deep voice.

"What astonishing talent!" Mo Yi nodded and said. He had never seen anyone with a talent more terrifying than his own. Only now did he realize that there are always people more talented than him.

At this time.

Two streaks of light flew across the horizon.

"Master and Grandmaster have arrived!"

Baili Dongjun's expression brightened as he looked at the two streaks of light.

In just a few breaths, the two streaks of light landed in the valley.

"Master! Grandmaster!"

Baili Dongjun and Sikong Changfeng quickly bowed.

“Such dense demonic energy,” Su Baiyi suddenly said. “A great demon must be emerging from this place.”

Li Changsheng also sensed a somewhat familiar aura, and his expression faltered slightly: "This aura... is it Ye Dingzhi?"

"He has broken free from the seal?"

When Ye Dingzhi led the Demonic Sect on its eastern expedition, he had already harbored resentment towards Emperor Tai'an, and he had also promised Luo Shui that he would no longer participate in worldly affairs.

So he didn't get involved and focused on guarding the northern border.

At the time, he thought Ye Dingzhi would surely crush Beili.

To his surprise, when he heard about what happened next, he heard that Ye Dingzhi had been sealed away.

He had always paid close attention to Ye Dingzhi's strength. When Ye Dingzhi stepped into the Divine Travel Realm, there was no one in the world who could stop him.

Even if he couldn't do it, he suspected there might be another reason behind it.

Baili Dongjun nodded and said, "Brother Yun has come out of the seal and returned to Tianwaitian not long ago."

"Something's not right." Su Baiyi frowned deeply. "This isn't an ordinary great demon. This aura... has already surpassed the Divine Ascension Realm!"

Li Changsheng was shocked: "Beyond the Divine Ascension Realm? Doesn't that mean I'm at the same level as you, Master?"

Su Baiyi said in a deep voice, "I have never felt such terrifying demonic energy before, even more chilling than the aura of extraterrestrial gods and Buddhas."

“It was Ye Dingzhi who broke the seal himself,” Mo Yi said. “When the Buddha of Wanyang Temple caught up, he only struck us a few times before Xiao Dongjun and I were already on the verge of death.”

"If there were no other circumstances, you probably wouldn't be seeing us now."

"At this moment, Ye Dingzhi suddenly emerged from the seal and injured the Buddha with a single sword strike."

"Then, Ye Dingzhi's aura suddenly surged and grew stronger. In just a few breaths, he broke through the realm and transcended the Divine Travel Realm. He severed the Buddha's arm with a sword, and we were saved by sheer luck."

Upon hearing these words, Li Changsheng was suddenly shocked.

After being sealed for twenty years, he broke through the Transcendent Realm upon his rebirth, reaching an unknown realm beyond the Divine Realm.

What an amazing talent!

“Yu Shengmo, you and I have fought for a lifetime. Although you have never won, you have indeed found a good disciple. This time, I have lost,” Li Changsheng murmured.

Su Baiyi was even more shocked. As someone who had reached a realm above the Divine Realm, he naturally knew how difficult it was to break through.

To break through to the realm of divine travel, one must possess the secret of transcendence; otherwise, it is impossible to break through.

But how did Ye Dingzhi know the secret of transcendence?

And judging from what he just said, Ye Dingzhi had been sealed for more than 20 years, and broke through his cultivation level as soon as he was born.

Even he found such talent incredible.

"Who is Ye Dingzhi?" Su Baiyi asked in a deep voice.

Soon, Baili Dongjun recounted Ye Dingzhi's story in detail.

Su Baiyi's expression grew increasingly shocked.

For hundreds of years, he had cultivated his character and temperament, and his heart had long been as still as a deep well. Almost nothing in the world could stir his emotions.

But at this moment, a storm was raging in his heart.

Chapter 100 The Immortal's Book: The Secret to Immortality! Entering the Outer Realm!

"Such a prodigy has appeared in this world?!"

Su Baiyi appeared calm, but her heart was in turmoil.

He entered the Divine Realm before he was twenty, and was then sealed for more than twenty years. It should have been the fall of a genius, but unexpectedly, he broke through the realm as soon as the seal was lifted.

Even the ancestor Su Xinghe did not have such an exaggerated cultivation speed.

"What a pity... that they actually fell into demonic possession." Su Baiyi shook his head and sighed, "The Xiao royal family is truly destined to perish. With such cruelty and inhumanity, even without Ye Dingzhi, they would have been doomed sooner or later."

At this moment, Baili Dongjun suddenly said, "This disciple would like to ask the Grandmaster a question."

Su Baiyi nodded: "Please speak freely."

"Thank you, Grandmaster." Baili Dongjun cupped his hands and asked, "Grandmaster said that the Immortal Book records the secret of immortality and the method to break through the realm."

"But why is it that no one in this world has ever lived forever?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Sikong Changfeng, Mo Yi, and the others looked over.

The word "immortality" always has a magical power.

Su Baiyi chuckled: "There is no such thing as true immortality in this world. People say that those who travel to the mystical realm can live forever, but it is just wishful thinking. As the story is passed around, people have mistaken it for reality."

"Even if one cultivates a longevity-enhancing technique like the Great Chun Gong, one can only live for a few hundred years at most."

"As for that immortal book..."

At this point, Su Baiyi paused for a moment before continuing, "The Immortal Book does indeed record the method of immortality; it is the true method of immortality."

Everyone present perked up and listened intently to what Su Baiyi had to say.

“There was once a person who used this method to live for hundreds of years without entering a spiritual realm, but was eventually killed by someone.”

Su Baiyi shook his head and said, "Ordinary people in the Free and Unfettered Heaven Realm live for a little over a hundred years, while those in the Divine Travel Mystic Realm live for two or three hundred years. That person lived for several hundred years, even longer than those in the Divine Travel Mystic Realm, all because of the longevity secrets recorded in the Immortal Book."

"It's a pity that the secret to immortality is not just about meditation and cultivation, nor can it be achieved by collecting rare and precious materials and brewing pills."

"Instead, one needs to replace the aging blood in one's own body with the blood of one's own blood relatives in order to obtain immortality."

Everyone was immediately shocked. This secret method of achieving immortality was so extreme and cruel, requiring not only blood transfusions but also the blood of blood relatives.

Su Baiyi seemed lost in memories: "Long ago, there was a legend in Kyushu that there was a fairy island deep in the heavens. In reality, that fairy island was called Yingzhou, which was the home of the Lü family in the southern region."

"The Lü family never had any contact with the Kyushu Continent and stayed in Yingzhou to guard the southern border seal until that day, when the head of the Lü family was preparing for a blood transfusion and killed his own daughter."

"After the blood transfusion, his son discovered this scene. Enraged, he slaughtered the entire Lü family, leaving only himself and his sister."

"Later, he and his sister left Yingzhou and came to this continent of Kyushu. Then his sister fell in love with a man named Su Han."

Li Changsheng's expression shifted slightly. He remembered that his master's father was named Su Han.

In other words, the master is a descendant of the Lü family of Yingzhou.

"So this is the method to achieve immortality? Forget it, I definitely can't bring myself to do it. I'd rather not have this method of immortality." Baili Dongjun shook his head, greatly disappointed.

Sikong Changfeng laughed and said, "You don't even have a child, so you can't practice this method of immortality."

"Go away, go away," Baili Dongjun said irritably. "So what if you have a daughter? Why are you showing her off all the time!"

Mo Yi frowned and said, "Why are those extraterrestrial gods and Buddhas so obsessed with such a cruel method?"

Su Baiyi said in a deep voice, "Although the longevity techniques recorded in the Immortal Book are cruel, they are the only true methods to achieve immortality. Even with great limitations, for those extraterrestrial gods and Buddhas, it is just a matter of paying a higher price."

“Aren’t those bald monks? Monks don’t even have children, so how can they use this method of immortality?” Baili Dongjun asked.

“They were unaware of this condition,” Su Baiyi said, shaking her head.

Just then, another streak of light flashed across the horizon.

"Someone else is coming." Baili Dongjun looked at the streak of light.

A few breaths later, the stream of light landed in front of everyone.

The man wore a bamboo hat and a white robe with long sleeves, exuding an aloof and unapproachable air.

“Lord Bai.” Su Baiyi smiled.

Bai Wuji glanced at everyone and said slowly, "Let's set off as soon as possible."

"The Southern Border Seal cannot remain unguarded for an extended period. If it breaks after a long time, then we will be in trouble."

"Lord Bai is as decisive as ever," Su Baiyi said. "Then let's set off now. Grand-disciple, you lead the way."

"Yes, Master!"

Baili Dongjun responded in a deep voice, his figure flashing as he sped off towards Snow Moon City.

Seeing this, the others also transformed into streaks of light and followed closely behind Baili Dongjun.

...

Moments later, Snowmoon City.

Baili Dongjun slowly stopped, looking at Wanyang Temple, which had completely crushed the entire Snow Moon City into dust.
