Tuoba San remained stunned for a long time. He had learned such a shocking secret so easily, which meant he had become a part of it...

The awakening of these people in the Three Forbidden Lands is likely closely related to the activation of the jade pendant…

He was merely a Martial Saint; with his strength, he absolutely could not have accessed such a secret…

But because he was the only one who could activate the jade pendant, he also became the most important person...

Given this premise, it doesn't seem unreasonable for him to know this news in advance...

"Does that mean that the people in the Three Forbidden Lands are actually a group of powerful individuals who can ascend to immortality at any time?"

Seeing Qingyunzi and Lingfeng nod, Tuoba San was deeply shocked and remained so for a long time…

The appearance of such a powerful group in the Burial Realm is definitely enough to disrupt the balance of power. However, considering that these people are not focused on vying for power and profit, but rather on ascending to the Immortal Realm, their impact on the current power structure may be negligible.

"Why...why did you wake up at this time?"

Qingyun Sect glanced at Tuoba San, as if seeing right through him, and then spoke.

"You want to ask why we're in the Three Forbidden Zones, right?"

"That's right..."

Tuoba San scratched his head awkwardly...

Qingyunzi didn't take it seriously and said quite solemnly.

"Speaking of which, this is also related to the strength of the plane. At that time, none of us could obtain the secret of the jade pendant, so we couldn't use it to open the Heavenly Gate. And the Burial Realm could only accommodate so many powerful beings. If we continued to exist, perhaps before we could ascend, the Burial Realm itself would not be able to hold on and would return to the Dharma-ending Age..."

Therefore, under the guidance of the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden, we all sealed ourselves in the Three Forbidden Lands. In this way, without affecting the operation of the Burial Realm, we can survive and wait for the destined one to appear...

Once someone gains the jade pendant's approval, its power will break our seal. As long as the pendant's holder can open the Heavenly Gate, we will leave. The Heavenly Dao will not easily eliminate us before we cause too much damage to the Burial Realm…”

Upon hearing Qingyunzi's explanation, Tuoba San fell into deep thought...

He now felt like he'd been tricked, wondering why the jade pendant had chosen him…

If the Heavenly Dao truly participated in the attack on Ling Feng back then, it means that the Heavenly Dao of today is no longer the Heavenly Dao of the past…

In that case, is he the chosen one of destiny that Heaven needs, or the chosen one of destiny that the Upper Realm needs?

This chosen one could be him, or it could be someone else; being selected by the jade pendant likely involves a large element of luck…

"Senior Ling Feng, do you know anything about the Heavenly Divine Court?"

Upon hearing Tuoba San's words, Ling Feng paused for a moment, then slowly shook his head.

"I don't know..."

"Are you aware that the Realm of the Void Gods has invaded the Realm of Burial?"

This question left Ling Feng even more bewildered, and he continued to shake his head.

"I don't know either..."

Having received Ling Feng's reply, Tuoba San felt that things were starting to make sense. To connect all the dots, all he needed to do now was peel back the layer of fog before him...

The Heavenly Kingdom Divine Court definitely appeared after Ling Feng's death. As for the timing of the Void God Realm's invasion, that still needs to be determined, depending on the Heavenly Kingdom Divine Court's purpose...

If the purpose was to resist the invasion of the Void God Realm, then the emergence of the Heavenly Kingdom Divine Court should have occurred after the invasion, when everyone united to fight against the Void God Realm…

But if this happened before the invasion, it means that the purpose of the Heavenly Kingdom's divine court was not to fight against the Void God Realm, and most of the information he heard about the Heavenly Kingdom's divine court was likely false...

After several encounters with the Heavenly Kingdom Divine Court, Tuoba San discovered that the Heavenly Kingdom Divine Court did not have the kind of ideology of taking responsibility for the world...

They're capable of committing acts like genocide; perhaps the Heavenly Court's initial motives weren't righteous at all…

However, he currently possesses very little information, but this does not prevent him from harboring deep hostility towards the Heavenly Court…

"Is this Heavenly Court very powerful?"

Qingyunzi couldn't help but ask in confusion...

Tuoba San recounted the circumstances of his family's annihilation, which shocked even Qingyunzi…

The fact that the tentacles of the Heavenly Court can appear in the mortal world indicates that this organization has a very wide reach…

"I suspect this organization is connected to the assassination of Ling Feng..."

Upon hearing Tuoba San's analysis, Qingyunzi and Lingfeng's eyes turned solemn as they began to seriously consider it; it wasn't impossible...

If that's really the case, then many things make sense. All that's needed now is to verify it...

"Mistress, what do you know?"

After pondering for a moment, Qingyunzi looked at Tuoba San and asked…

"See those blood slaves outside? They're the ones the Asuras of the Heavenly Court are keeping..."

Asura?

Upon hearing this name, Qingyunzi and Lingfeng exchanged a glance; clearly, they knew something…

"Seniors, has something come to mind?"

Judging from their expressions, I knew they must know some secrets he didn't...

"There was indeed a supreme Asura back then, named Rakshasa!"

Qingyunzi's eyes held a hint of reminiscence, clearly indicating that he had some understanding of this Rakshasa...

"Judging from your appearance, I suppose this Rakshasa is a beautiful woman..."

This made the old master of the Qingyun Sect blush; he hadn't expected a junior to expose his secret. However, he quickly composed himself and forced an explanation.

"Everyone has a love for beauty, but my feelings for her are limited to mere appreciation..."

Tuoba Sanxin said, "Do I look like a fool to you?"

"Well, Senior Qingyunzi, there's no need to explain. In the Three Forbidden Lands, my feelings for the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden were simply one of admiration; we were even..."

Qingyunzi thought to himself, "Are you kidding me? No man can simply admire the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden..."

However, since they both knew what the other was thinking, they didn't continue the awkward silence...

However, the Emperor's Sword within Tuoba San's body suddenly unleashed a burst of power, giving Tuoba San the sensation of his heart being squeezed tightly...

This caused him to convulse a few times. To the Qingyun Sect and Ling Feng, it seemed as if Tuoba San had inexplicably launched into a robotic dance performance, leaving them utterly bewildered…

"Ahem... Let's get down to business. Rakshasa sent her blood slaves here because it's inconvenient for her to act herself. Otherwise, with her strength, she could resolve many things with just a thought..."

After clearing his throat twice, Qingyun Sect member ...

“I absorbed the power of an unformed blood slave, which makes the blood slaves outside think I am one of their kind. Perhaps I can follow him to confirm whether he is truly a Rakshasa…”

Tuoba San's eyes flashed with intense hatred. Now that he had a target, and that target was in a weakened state, he was determined to take revenge...
