In just half an hour, the three people Fang Zong brought seemed to have gone through an entire cycle of reincarnation.
Murong Zhen was one thing; out of respect for Fang Zong, the Grand Venerables of the Blackwater Palace didn't make things too difficult for him. But the other two were almost instantly torn away more than ten miles away. After being questioned by dozens of Grand Venerables, their faces were pale, but they still calmly walked back.
"A good person!"
"Good young man!"
Dozens of great masters praised it enthusiastically.
Just because of these two people, one wearing a turban and holding a feather fan, when questioned by them, he was able to cover up his mistakes perfectly and remain completely silent. He was unmatched in his ability to talk and discuss, and neither threats nor inducements could make him reveal his origins. Instead, he was left speechless by their questions.
Another passionate remark, in just a few words, stirred up the long-dormant passion of the thirteen Great Venerables!
Because of his status, the Palace Master merely greeted Fang Zong, but the Thousand-Eyed Grand Venerable was not so dogmatic and directly asked Fang Zong, "Who are they? They're not living people, are they?"
"One was named Zhuge Liang, and the other was named Su Qin."
Fang Zong replied with a smile, not at all worried about exposing things on Earth.
As I've already said, those were Zhuge Liang and Su Qin.
Leaving aside Zhuge Liang's wisdom and strategy, just considering his ability to debate with the Confucian scholars, those in the Blackwater Palace were all no match for him. Su Qin, needless to say, was a terrifying figure who could unite six states to fight against the iron-fisted Qin Dynasty. How could he be "forced" to tell the truth by a little pressure?
He patted the two men on the shoulders, then turned to the Thousand-Eyed Grandmaster and said, "Is it alright to have them go to the Nine Fiends Palace to persuade them?"
"Heh~"
The corner of the Thousand-Eyed Great Venerable's mouth twitched.
question?
How could there be a problem?
He intimidated Zhuge Liang and Su Qin, trying to find out Fang Zong's origins, but he almost crushed them to death without getting any information and was even verbally abused.
The key point is, what they said makes perfect sense!
Every word he spoke was logical and well-founded, and he almost bowed down in admiration. Such a person was truly perfect for going out and persuading people.
...
Before long, two ancient-level Grand Venerables stood in front of Fang Zong.
Zhuge Liang and Su Qin were eloquent, but in the Great World, their strength at the Transformation level was insufficient to protect their own safety. The Blackwater Palace Master dispatched two Ancient-level Grand Venerables so that they could speak instead of being slapped to death by the Nine Fiends Palace.
"Please wait a moment, seniors."
Fang Zong greeted the two Ancient-level beings, tightened his grip, and whispered, "I need you to succeed."
After saying this, he nodded slightly and shifted his gaze to Zhuge Liang and Su Qin, where he saw only their gentle smiles.
"We two will certainly live up to our mission."
They both spoke at the same time.
The wind howled, and the figures slowly disappeared in the gale. Fang Zong stared at the backs of Zhuge Liang and Su Qin, feeling as if he were watching two exceptionally tall people standing on the earth, their shoulders capable of supporting the blue sky.
He needs Zhuge Liang and Su Qin to succeed; more precisely, Earth needs the Blood Moon in the hands of the Blood Amber Venerable.
The Blood Moon had little effect on cultivation, but he saw it as a treasure born after the destruction of the small world. If Earth absorbed it, it would give Earth ten more years, and he would also gain ten more years. Zhuge Liang and Su Qin understood this, and their departure had a poignant, almost tragic, feel to it.
"It's all or nothing, Ah Zong, you should have let me go with you."
Murong Zhen's expression was a little strange.
He considers himself a smart person, but also a human being. When the nest is overturned, no egg remains unbroken. He grew up eating rice from this earth and is willing to do his part for the earth.
Fang Zong shook his head again, because Zhuge Liang and Su Qin were enough, and there was no need for Murong Zhen to take any more risks. He smiled and said, "I believe in the abilities of the two ancestors."
"I believe that too, but things are different in the big world."
Murong Zhen spat, his eyes turning somewhat green.
The two ancient-level Grand Venerables claimed to be protecting Zhuge Liang and Su Qin, but in reality, they were just standing still.
If they manage to persuade the people in the Nine Fiends Palace, they might protect Zhuge Liang and Su Qin. However, if they fail to persuade them and even anger them, these two Ancient-level Grand Venerables will most likely turn around and leave, and will definitely not confront them directly at the gates of the Nine Fiends Palace.
"Cough cough!"
Fang Zong suddenly coughed twice.
As Murong Zhen's expression returned to normal, the Thousand-Eyed Great Venerable revealed himself, standing beside Fang Zong, his eyes scanning Fang Zong up and down with countless blood spots.
"Your subordinates are good."
The Thousand-Eyed Great Venerable praised it again.
"You like it?" Fang Zong's eyes lit up immediately.
The Thousand-Eyed Great Venerable paused for a moment, then laughed heartily: "I do like those two people, and I also like the one beside you, Murong Zhen, right? But that's all. There's no need for me to personally protect them. Don't even think about it."
"What if I agree to let them follow you?"
"That's impossible, it's not worth it!"
The Thousand-Eyed Great Venerable picked up a pot of old wine and drank it calmly, completely ignoring Fang Zong's disappointed look.
He understood Fang Zong's intentions; he wanted him to personally protect Zhuge Liang and Su Qin. However, if that were the case, he would need to go to the gate of the Nine Fiends Palace.
Is it worth it?
Not worth it!
They're just two people who can talk!
Compared to Zhuge Liang and Su Qin, the Thousand-Eyed Great Venerable cared more about Fang Zong. He clapped his hands, and a whole hundred people stepped forward, all carrying large plates made of gold and silver, covered with brocade, but unable to conceal the strong fire-attribute energy.
"What a grand gesture!"
Fang Zong was taken aback and exclaimed in admiration, unable to resist licking his lips.
He sensed that these were all fire-attribute treasures, and their total energy reserves, not counting mass, were more than three hundred times that of his own body!
The Thousand-Eyed Grand Venerable laughed and said, "This is enough for you to advance to the Grand Venerable level above the Earth. When you understand what 'above the Earth' means, you can absorb it... Hmm?"
As they were talking, the expression on the Thousand-Eyed Great Venerable's face froze.
He saw Fang Zong pick up the treasure and begin absorbing it without hesitation. Fang Zong's body was also radiating rings of light, which looked somewhat blurry but were incredibly tall.
"Above the ground?"
He muttered to himself in astonishment.
Daring to shoulder the responsibility of the blue sky is what makes one stand out on earth!
Absorbing the power of the earth and supporting the sky, it is above the earth!
A Grand Venerable of the Earthly Realm, standing on the earth, possesses an inexhaustible source of power...
The Thousand-Eyed Great Venerable already knew what the realm above the earth was, but what he did not expect was that Fang Zong had just been promoted to Dao Spirit Great Venerable, and was only a minor level below the heavens, yet he had already comprehended the realm above the earth.
Did Fang Zong have too many extraordinary encounters, or did he possess too much profound knowledge and experience?
Or perhaps, they bear a burden far greater than this vast sky?
Unconsciously, the Thousand-Eyed Great Venerable looked in the direction Zhuge Liang and Su Qin had left, gave a knowing "hmm," and sighed again:
"There are just too many talented people."
"Fang Zong is, and so are these two."
