At the edge of the shattered and collapsed Second Heaven, Li Jing, Qing Jiao Wang and several other Anti-Void Realm cultivators hid in the distance, frowning as they stared at the black severed hand, their eyes filled with fear.

"Li Tianwang, how could Taitian Zun be... a broken hand?" A pale-faced Anti-Void Realm cultivator behind him was filled with horror when he saw Taitian Zun's appearance for the first time.

Li Jing was silent for a long moment before answering, "In fact, there has never been a Tai Tian Zun in Bei Tianmen. This severed hand is actually the remains of a great saint from Zhongshengzhou Tiangong. That great saint was named Taiyi Dao Zun."

Among the people behind him, except for the Green Dragon King who knew the inside story, the rest of them all looked surprised.

"It is said that while practicing the Way of the Sage, Taiyi Daozun was frustrated by the Five Decays of Heaven and Man and suffered the backlash of the Heavenly Fire. To avoid his demise, Taiyi Daozun split himself in two, deceiving the Heavens and avoiding the danger of his demise."

"Our Beitianmen was founded by the Emperor of the Heavenly Palace, so naturally we have the obligation to help Taiyi Daozun avoid the Five Calamities of Degeneration of the Celestial Beings."

So, the Taiyi Taoist Master that has been passed down for a long time is actually just a hand of Taiyi Taoist Master, the Holy Land of the Heavenly Palace in Zhongshengzhou?

Many people clicked their lips, as if they had learned something new, and were amazed.

"However, due to the Five Decays of Heaven and Man, this hand is cursed with natural disasters, and it needs to devour its vitality every once in a while. In less than a hundred years, our Beitianmen has already paid a huge price. This time, we forcibly awakened this hand in order to kill those bastards from the Taixuan Sect."

A complicated look flashed across Li Jing's eyes.

In the entire Beitianmen, only a few people knew what happened to the three missing Heavenly Lords.

This is also the reason why he dared to release this hand. As long as he devoured the two Hedao realm masters from Taixuan Jiufeng, this pair of cursed demonic hands could sleep peacefully.

Until Taiyi Daozun found a way to overcome the five signs of decay and recalled the broken arms, the nightmare of Beitianmen could be avoided.

"Let's get out of here quickly to avoid being caught in this misfortune."

"Let Taiyi Daozun deal with these people from the Taixuan Sect."

After Li Jing finished speaking, he did not stop and turned around to fly farther away.

But the next moment, a thin figure stepped into the air and slowly came over, dragging a long dark golden iron rod behind him.

"Old Li Jing, where do you want to go?"

…

Higher up in the sky, Zong Baiye frowned and looked at the broken second sky of Tianxuan Mountain, his expression inexplicably solemn.

"The Five Degenerations of Heavenly Beings..."

The sage's teachings that Li Jiuzhong had just passed on to him were churning in his mind, and he couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

“Is this the way of a saint?”

In the entire Beitianmen, he was the only one who could clearly sense the terrifying energy coming from the black severed hand. This was no longer just the spiritual power of an ordinary cultivator, nor was it just some kind of mysterious law, but more like a kind of Taoist mystery that transcended the mundane world.

"I also have the power of a saint!"

Zong Baiye slightly spread out his palm, and a ray of sword light moved in his palm, slowly turning into a liquid like water and slowly dissipating.

He is probably the only one in the entire cultivation world who can cultivate the power of a saint in the body of an immortal.

Zong Baiye was just about to go down and deal with the severed hand when his brows suddenly moved and he looked up towards the direction of the Three Heavens hanging high under the sun.

There, he felt a mysterious aura awakening as well. The aura was not very strong, but it was extremely mysterious and profound. Zong Baiye frowned. He could sense a familiar smell from this aura, but it was also a little strange.

"Peaches... and immortal power, and... what else?"

Zong Baiye frowned and took a step forward, appearing at the edge of the triple heaven. He looked at the huge celestial pond where grew the only sky-reaching peach tree.

In the center of the peach tree, there grows a single pale golden peach, which sways slightly as if breathing in and out.

Zong Baiye narrowed his eyes, and the liquid covering his hands slowly condensed and turned into a sword energy again. He shook his hand and threw it out, and it fell straight towards the peach tree in the Tianchi Lake.

But the next moment, a golden carp jumped out of the Tianchi Lake and swallowed the sword energy in one gulp.

Zong Baiye's eyes narrowed.

"It is rumored that Tianchi is a place even more mysterious than my Chaoyang Sword Tomb. It seems that the rumor is true."

"A little koi fish can actually swallow my sword energy."

Although this sword energy is not powerful, it can definitely kill any cultivator in the Anti-Void Realm in seconds. Even an ordinary cultivator in the Hedao Realm will find it difficult to block it easily.

But it was swallowed by a koi. If this seemingly ordinary koi is some kind of sacred beast or monster, then the problem lies with this Tianchi Lake.

This place is known as the first secret place in Beizhou.

"Zong Baiye, how are you?"

A clear voice suddenly sounded in Zong Baiye's mind. Zong Baiye's brows furrowed, and the sword intent in his body was dormant, covering an area of ​​more than a foot in radius.

Within this one-foot radius, he believed that he would be able to deal with even Li Jiuzhong.

But the next moment, the voice that came from nowhere sounded in his mind again.

"Haha, Zong Baiye, the famous number one swordsman who slew immortals and became a saint in Beizhou, would also come to my Beitianmen to spy?"

A faint consciousness quickly condensed above the Tianchi Lake and transformed into a misty shadow.

Zong Baiye frowned and looked at the dark and mysterious Tianchi Lake, then paused.

"Ziwei?"

The voice chuckled, "Of course it's me. The Third Heaven of the North Heaven Gate, the secret place of Tianchi. Except for me, the Ziwei Emperor, no one else can possibly set foot in it."

Zong Baiye's face was calm. He gathered the sword energy in his body to his feet and took a step forward.

Standing on the edge of the third heaven, beside the Tianchi Lake.

The next moment, a wave suddenly rolled up from the calm Tianchi Lake and hit Zong Baiye.

This wave, seemingly ordinary to ordinary people, caused Zong Baiye's face to tense slightly. A flash of sword light flashed in the air before him, and this wave, which could have killed a person at the initial stage of the Hedao realm, suddenly shattered.

"Zong Baiye, are you provoking this emperor again?"

The next moment, waves surged above the Tianchi Lake, one wave after another rolled up and crashed into Zong Baiye.

Zong Baiye frowned, took a step back, and left the third heaven.

With Zong Baiye's departure, Tianchi returned to peace again.

"Is Tianchi an immortal weapon? A complete immortal weapon?" Zong Baiye asked.

One of the reasons why Beitianmen ranks first among the holy places in Beizhou is because Beitianmen possesses a complete immortal weapon.

But no one would have thought that this magical weapon was actually the Third Heaven of Beitianmen.

"You have completely refined this immortal weapon? No, that's not right..." Zong Baiye looked at the peach tree above the Tianchi Lake and the only peach fruit on the tree, his expression changed slightly.

He could sense the life force contained in the peach, and he could even hear the subtle breathing sound coming from the peach.

"It's not refining, but... fusion?"

"You have integrated yourself into this magical weapon?" Zong Baiye couldn't help but finally exclaimed.
