While comforting him, the Sword and Saber Sect Master observed the surrounding situation. Whenever he spotted someone flying towards them, he would step forward and negotiate with them to make them retreat outside the range of the lightning tribulation.
Most people were just there to check things out, and they were easily persuaded to leave by the Sword and Saber Sect Master.
Although the people of the Holy Demon Sect really wanted to capture Si Er and Yu Beixuan and teach them a lesson, they gave up the idea when they saw that the Sword and Saber Sect was protecting them. Instead, they took their disciples back to their sect.
Seeing Yu Beixuan undergoing his tribulation, the hall masters and sect leaders of the Killing God Hall and the Overlord Body Sect had the idea of taking him as a disciple, so they waited with a group of people on the side.
Even though Si Er took the initiative to tell them that they already had a master, the two of them still refused to give up and insisted on asking Yu Beixuan in person.
When Yu Beixuan had only nine lightning tribulations left, those old geezers from the Di family came over and shamelessly attacked him.
Si Er's heart jumped into his throat. The Sword and Saber Sect Master, the Killing God Hall Master, and the Overlord Body Sect Master were also prepared to help stop them, and even asked their own ancestors for help.
But before they could even make a move, Qianqiu directly moved those old geezers from the Di family.
The three sect leaders looked at each other, not understanding what had happened.
However, an elder from the Sword and Saber Sect stepped forward and called out in Qianqiu's direction, "Qianqiu, have you returned?"
Qianqiu rose up like a small mountain and stood before everyone.
"It's been ages! I didn't expect anyone would still remember me?"
The old patriarch of the Sword and Saber Sect laughed and said, "I remember, how could I not remember? Since you left, no one has stolen the fish I caught. Our Sword and Saber Sect has even gained another fishpond because of this."
Si Er glanced at the old ancestor curiously, not expecting that the other party was an acquaintance of Qian Qiu. Qian Qiu thought that he often stole the other party's fish.
Isn't it a bit dishonest for a fisherman to catch fish by stealing their catch?
Qianqiu stared at the other party in shock, then leaned his head close to the old ancestor and looked him up and down several times.
Qianqiu asked in disbelief, "Jian Hengshan, how did you get so old?"
Jian Hengshan stroked his beard and laughed, "It's been ten thousand years. Isn't it normal for me to have aged like this?"
Qianqiu still found it unbelievable: "Ten thousand years ago, you were already a Mahayana cultivator when you were less than five hundred years old. How come you still haven't ascended after ten thousand years?"
"I see you've already reached the peak of the Tribulation Transcending stage, why are you still here?"
"Did you secretly do something bad and now you can't ascend?"
Jian Hengshan shook his head helplessly: "I don't know why, but the ascension passage on the Cangshou Continent has encountered a problem."
"In these ten thousand years, no one on our continent has been able to ascend to the upper realms, let alone the immortal realm."
"Why is that?" Qianqiu asked, puzzled. "Could it be that when the Sword Maniac cleaved the continent, he also severed the ascension passage?"
Jian Hengshan sighed: "According to calculations, the ascension passage must be blocked by something."
"But no one can figure out exactly what it is."
Qianqiu couldn't help but sigh as well: "Then there must be many old guys like you on this continent."
"On the Beast Continent, your cultivation levels have already reached their peak, and you can no longer advance."
"But cultivators who have undergone tribulation only live for ten thousand years. Doesn't that mean your days are numbered? Are you just waiting to die in vain?"
Jian Hengshan's face twitched slightly: "It's a rare encounter. I only want to spend some time with you, not fight you."
Qianqiu's lips twitched slightly: "Forget it, I'm still in my prime. Your old bones can't beat me." (This chapter has been read. Please click to continue reading the next chapter!)
