Chapter 20: Eternal Life is Hell



In the dilapidated Taoist temple, there is a statue with a blurred face.

The old statue, which was covered with dust and cobwebs, now shook off all the dust, revealing a beautiful female statue inside.

And in the next moment, the statue slowly opened its eyes.

"ah--"

Xu Xianxian yawned, and then the fluorescent light on her body dissipated, and she slowly walked down from the altar.

"How many years have passed?" She looked a little sleepy, counting on her fingers. "Another two thousand years have passed, and Bai Xiaozhen and Zhao Qingqing haven't even achieved celestial immortality in this lifetime."

As a projection, she is also the culprit behind the revival of the Taiyutian myth. She has always been wandering in strange stories and unofficial history, only appearing every once in a while to protect her two foolish disciples.

The time interval for this road protection is sometimes only a few decades, and sometimes even thousands of years.

It all depends on how long it takes for the two stupid disciples to reincarnate and cultivate again.

"Bai Xiaozhen is so stupid in this life. He couldn't even advance to the fifth level and has entered the cycle of reincarnation again. Zhao Qingqing is not so bad in this life. He has already reached the sixth level of Earthly Immortal, just one step away. Unfortunately, this step is a chasm. Now he has been lingering for thousands of years, but still has not been able to break through the scale of time!"

Xu Xianxian shook her head slightly, lamenting that this time's guarding was probably all in vain.

After all, Bai Xiaozhen was truly clueless, and none of her past lives were particularly good. And to give him the chance to reverse his fate and break through the Ruler of Time, she couldn't possibly tamper with his talent, lest she force him to grow too fast and destroy his potential.

So there is no other way but to work for free for the sake of one's own Taoist partner.

......

......

It is said that at the same time as the statues in the Taoist temple were moving strangely, there was a forbidden area inside the Taiyin Xuanzong mountain gate and the blessed land.

This is a lava zone blocked by countless chains. The scorching hot lava is not red, but pale white. The rolling heat waves distort the space, as if they are going to burn everything to ashes.

At the entrance to the chain-blocked lava forbidden area.

An old man with long white hair and beard came in tremblingly, leading a dozen evil spirits of different appearances, and stopped within twenty or thirty meters of the entrance.

"Ancestor, this month's food has arrived."

This old man with long white hair and beard is named Li Changyou, and he is one of the supreme elders of Taiyin Xuanzong.

He possessed profound cultivation, having ascended from a lower realm sect hundreds of years ago. He was now a powerful being in the Spiritual Transformation Realm. As long as he could overcome the Three Calamities and Nine Tribulations, he would be able to open up a blessed land and achieve Earthly Immortal status.

But in front of the ancestor of the Lava Forbidden Zone, he was still very careful and cautious, fearing that his behavior would be presumptuous and offend the other party, and he would become one of the food for those who died tragically.

"I see."

After a while, a slightly hoarse voice came from inside, and a huge dark shadow claw stretched out from the depths of the forbidden area, kneading the dozen or so evil spirits into a bunch of black meatballs.

There were demons, monsters, and even some monsters comparable to the Divine Transformation Realm. But before the giant claws of the shadow, they couldn't even make a sound and were transformed into small, round meatballs.

Then the giant claw, along with a pile of meatballs, disappeared in front of Li Changyou.

Click, click—

The teeth-grinding chewing sound echoed throughout the entire lava forbidden area.

"The old man's condition seems to have deteriorated considerably."

Li Changyou gazed at the endless expanse of lava. Despite the intense heat, he felt a chill running through his body. He then bowed respectfully and prepared to slowly leave the forbidden area.

But at this moment, the chewing sound stopped, and a cry of surprise came from deep in the lava.

Then countless chains around began to tremble. After a noisy sound, all the chains broke at the same time, and the lava began to roar and surge, as if a natural disaster had come.

"Ancestor, don't..."

Faced with this scene, Li Changyou, who was leaving, was furious. He saw an indescribable shadow rising from the depths of the forbidden area, twisting like a god or a demon.

Afterwards, the entire paradise fell into darkness.

Not only that, even the Taiyin Xuanzong outside was affected by the darkness, and the celestial phenomena outside surged, as if day had turned into night.

"Why is it dark already?!"

"The stars are shifting, the celestial phenomena are turning upside down. This is the arrival of a powerful being!"

"Could it be that another sect is planning to attack our Xuan Sect?"

"Impossible! In this continent, our Taiyin Xuan Sect is the leader in upholding the righteous path. With our ancestor here, even the powerful earthly immortals dare not act presumptuously!"

All the disciples of the Taoist sects began to feel confused when they saw this scene. Only a few high-ranking members of Xuanzong knew what this sudden darkness meant.

"It's the unfolding Taiyin Secret Realm!"

"It actually broke out within the sect. Could it be that the forbidden area set up by the ancestor himself has been broken?!"

"How could there be no warning at all? Even if the ancestor lost control and broke through the forbidden area, it would take a cup of tea."

"Oh no! The ancestor has lost control. Is he going to start a massacre?!"

"Quickly evacuate the many disciples! If the ancestor completely loses control, the entire sect will be reduced to a den of ghosts!"

"My Taiyin Xuan Sect has been established for over a thousand years. Could it be that today we will be reduced to the dust of history?!"

However, at the moment when the faces of the masters and elders changed drastically, the shadow that covered the sky and the sun flashed by, and Taiyin Xuanzong returned to normal in the brief darkness, as if the previous changes in the sky were just an illusion.

A huge shadow came over the Taoist temple in the basin, stayed in the air for a while, and then struggled to transform into a thin human figure.

However, its condition was too bad. Even after transforming into a human form, it was still surrounded by countless wriggling and twisted shadow minions.
