Chapter 155

The peach blossoms before us are not just ordinary peach trees.

Baili Han sensed the pure spiritual energy surging around him, and his eyes darkened slightly.

This mountain was created by a highly skilled cultivator who used peach trees to set up a nine-layered Five Elements Formation, borrowing the power of the stars and drawing upon the spirits of the five elements of heaven and earth to defy the heavens and transform this place into a blessed land.

This kind of formation, which can be described as a celestial array, is so powerful that even a Celestial Venerable in the Tribulation Transcending stage cannot break through its defenses once it is formed.

If one can cultivate here for a long time, not only will one's cultivation speed be extremely fast, but one's spiritual body will also be cleansed, one will be blessed, and even one's luck will improve.

Luck is mysterious and profound, but it is extremely important to cultivators.

Which cultivator who can ascend to immortality isn't a person of great fortune?

Currently, in the entire Hunyuan Continent, the only one capable of setting up such a grand formation without being drained of life force is probably Immortal Venerable Lingxiao.

However, the Supreme Elder must have paid a considerable price back then.

Otherwise, someone of his great power would have already undergone numerous marrow cleansings and tendon-refining processes to achieve immortality, so how could he have a full head of white hair?

The Supreme Elder's love for his great-granddaughter moved even a cold-hearted person like Baili Han for a moment.

"Little apprentice?"

Seeing Baili Han staring at the peach blossom forest, Wen Xin raised her hand and waved it in front of him.

Baili Han looked at her.

His pupils were pure black, and when he looked at people, it seemed as if he could suck away their souls; they were so deep that they made people's hearts tremble.

Wen Xin's eyelashes fluttered slightly, and she hesitantly withdrew her hand, saying softly, "Little apprentice, there is an illusion array in this peach blossom forest. Don't keep staring at it, or you might fall into the bewitching illusion array."

Baili Han's clear, cold voice, as cold as ice and snow, slowly said, "Thank you for reminding me, Junior Sister, but I won't."

Wen Xin tilted her head. "Huh?"

The Supreme Elder, who was walking in front, laughed and said, "He now possesses the Buddha's bone and is the body of a Pure Spirit Buddha Child. He can see through all illusions and is a natural nemesis of illusion arrays."

Wen Xin exclaimed "Wow!" and praised from the bottom of her heart, "My little apprentice is amazing."

Baili Han: "..."

He looked into the girl's clear eyes, which held only joy and admiration, without a trace of darkness or greed. Their purity and brightness made his heart skip a beat.

How can anyone have such beautiful eyes?

The Supreme Elder said he possessed the body of a Pure Spirit Buddha Child, yet he knew better than anyone else.

Beneath the Buddha's light lies a cold, bloodthirsty demonic skeleton, born cruel and murderous, knowing only how to plunder and seize, utterly devoid of humanity.

In contrast, her soul was truly clean and pure.

Baili Han lowered his eyes slightly, "My junior mistress is even more amazing."

Wen Xin's eyes crinkled into a smile. "Although I know this isn't true, I'm still very happy that my little apprentice is praising me like this."

The Supreme Elder was pleased to see that his great-granddaughter was more playful and lively than usual, compared to her usual well-behaved and quiet nature.

Finding her a playmate of the same age definitely worked.

However, thinking of her health, a heavy feeling rose in the Supreme Elder's eyes.

If she hadn't been severely injured in the womb, with her talent, she would definitely be a genius rarely seen in the cultivation world, and her future achievements would certainly not be lower than mine.

Unfortunately, it was all due to timing and fate!

Deep within the peach blossom grove lies a palace with glazed tiles, pavilions, and towers, shrouded in mist, resembling a celestial palace.

The servants who served her were all disciples who had served the Supreme Elder, and the lowest level of their cultivation was at the Nascent Soul stage. If they were outside, they would all be True Monarch level experts.

However, just like Lin Zhenjun, they were loyal to Lingxiao Immortal Venerable and were all willing to take care of and protect the young lady.

Wen Xin took Baili Han to choose a place to stay.

Without hesitation, Baili Han chose the courtyard closest to her.

The Supreme Elder examined his great-granddaughter's body, fearing that she had been frightened today, causing her spiritual energy to surge wildly and making her sick and uncomfortable again.

After discovering that her consciousness and spiritual power were stable, the Supreme Elder was somewhat relieved. He told her to rest well, left Baili Han with many Buddhist cultivation techniques, and then returned to Yunhai Peak.

As a Celestial Venerable in the Tribulation Transcending stage, the Supreme Elder usually cultivates in his own Daoist temple, comprehending the rules of heaven and earth and seeking an opportunity to ascend.

Aside from a major disaster that threatens the cultivation world and the Qingxiao Sect, only his great-granddaughter Wen Xin could alarm him.

After the Supreme Elder left, Baili Han breathed a slight sigh of relief.

No matter how confident he was in himself, the Supreme Elder's cultivation was too high, and he might have some secret techniques to test the Demon Clan.

He cannot reveal his identity yet.

With the unsealing of the demonic bone, Baili Han also awakened his inherited memories and finally understood his true identity and origin.

A demon god reincarnated?

A purple glint flashed in Baili Han's eyes, cold and mocking.

At this moment, Wen Xin also asked about his background.

"Little apprentice, your surname is Baili. Are you from the Baili clan, one of the five great immortal cultivation families in the cultivation world?"

Baili Han looked at her and nodded.

Wen Xin frowned slightly. "The five major cultivation families value bloodline inheritance. Although they often have intermarriages with the three major sects, they rarely send their disciples to the sects."

Because they have their own bloodline cultivation techniques, staying in the family is the most suitable option.

However, Baili Han was sent to the Qingxiao Sect, where his status was still ordinary, and he could only be a nominal disciple on Tianyang Peak.

Could he be a neglected member of the Baili family?

Baili Han said calmly, "My father is the chief of the Baili clan."

Wen Xin opened her eyes wide in disbelief.

How could a direct descendant of one of the five great immortal cultivation families end up in such a miserable state?

Baili Han seemed amused by her, "I'm not exactly a direct descendant."

It turns out that Baili Han's mother was just an ordinary woman. Eighteen years ago, when the Baili clan chief went to the mortal realm on business, they met.

Chief Baili was a womanizer. He took a fancy to a beautiful young girl, but after trying every means to get her, he turned around and left her without a second thought.

Baili Han's mother became pregnant out of wedlock and was not accepted by her family. She was sent to the family temple to practice asceticism and died a few years after giving birth to Baili Han.

Before she passed away, she told him about her father and left behind a jade pendant that could be used to identify her relatives.

Baili Han was also very bold; he dared to wander outside when he was only six or seven years old, searching for his scumbag father.

An accident led him into the world of cultivation, where he realized that his mother and his scumbag father were from two different worlds.

When Baili Han was ten years old, he went to the Baili family. At that time, his scumbag father’s first wife had just given birth to a legitimate son, and Baili was overjoyed.

His appearance did not bring the Baili clan chief any joy or guilt; instead, it enraged Lady Baili.

Clan Chief Baili cursed his bad luck and ordered his men to throw him into the Qingxiao Sect, telling him never to return.

Baili Han said calmly, "I should be glad that he didn't kill me directly, or throw him out as if he didn't exist."

Of course, it wasn't that the Baili clan chief didn't want to, but rather that Baili Han was very clever; he appeared before everyone during the Baili family's grand banquet.
