Chapter 515: Immortality Disappears
After a long and dusty journey, Li Fan and Senior Sister Zhao were shocked when they rushed back to the mountain gate.
The inside of the sect was covered in mourning, and the faces of the sect's disciples were filled with grief.
After asking quickly, they found out what happened.
The leader of the Da Dao Sect, Fang Dingge, a powerful immortal realm master, has fallen.
The two were deeply shocked and filled with endless doubts.
Changsheng Tianzun is already the strongest in this world. As the leader of one of the ten sects of the immortal way, Fang Dingge has unfathomable achievements and cultivation.
Even among the immortals, he is one of the best.
How could such a person fall just like that?
As they learned more about it, they felt it was absurd and weird.
Not only is Fang Dingge's cause of death a mystery, his body is also missing.
Rather than falling, it's more like...
Missing.
But the broken life lamp that remained inside the door was irrefutable proof that this powerful immortal had passed away.
No matter how much doubt and reluctance there is, this fact cannot be changed.
In fact, the announcement of the sect leader’s death was made only after intense discussions among several elders within the sect.
Such a big thing cannot be concealed even if one wants to.
Because Brother Fang Ding from the Da Dao Sect was not the only powerful immortal who passed away.
Taishang, Tianjian, Du'e, Yushou...
It is said that powerful people in the realm of immortality have fallen in these sects.
This news is too shocking.
Although the ten major immortal sects strictly blocked it, they were unable to stop it from spreading quickly.
So many powerful immortals died at the same time.
Who did it?
The first person that Li Fan and Senior Sister Zhao thought of was the one who taught them the Dharma.
This was because these deceased Immortal Heavenly Masters were the ones who, more than 20 years ago, the various sects had agreed to unite and assassinate those who were spreading the Dharma.
Now that they have died suddenly, the Immortal Lord of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance is naturally the most suspicious person.
But this doesn't make sense.
[Transmit the Dharma] He has not yet been promoted to the realm of immortality. If his fighting power is really unprecedented, he can kill the immortal with the combination of Dao.
It is time to take advantage of the great victory and call on all cultivators in the world to unite and overthrow the existence of the Ten Immortal Sects.
But from beginning to end, this [Dharma-preaching Immortal] only showed up at the beginning of his preaching and at very rare times.
The rest of the time, there is no news and no one knows where he is, which is extremely mysterious.
Or in other words, after killing Changsheng Tianzun of the Ten Immortal Sects, Chuanfa himself was also seriously injured and had to lie dormant?
Even so, he could still tell the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance about his heroic deeds to boost morale.
But as far as Li Fan knew, the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance was also very shocked by the death of the Eternal Heavenly Master.
It seems that they are unaware of this.
This incident, from beginning to end, is full of mystery and absurdity.
It took Li Fan and Senior Sister Zhao a long time to recover after hearing the news.
The immortal realm they had been striving for was actually so fragile? Could it fall just like that?
What’s the difference between them and ordinary monks?
Is there still meaning in their practice?
In the endless confusion, the two practiced together for several days before they finally recovered.
“This matter is definitely not as simple as it seems. Rather than saying they died, I believe that they cut off the shackles and broke through the boundaries.” Senior Sister Zhao looked calm and spoke slowly.
"Shackles?" This was the first time Li Fan heard of it, and he couldn't help but ask.
"It was a long time ago that Master mentioned it to me by chance." Senior Sister Zhao frowned slightly, as if she was trying hard to recall.
"At that time, I asked Master, what is true freedom? Is it freedom to achieve immortality? Master was silent for a long time, and then sighed and said, 'The sky locks all living things, and no one can escape. Even the strong ones in the realm of immortality are still imprisoned. At that time, the ten sects of the immortal way overthrew the Xuantian Sect, but they did not completely overthrow it.' When I wanted to ask again, he refused to say more."
Li Fan was shocked when he heard this: "A strong person in the realm of immortality still cannot be free?"
Senior Sister Zhao looked at her lover's dazed look and couldn't help but comfort him, "Their disappearance this time may be a good thing. At the very least, it means that in the realm of immortality, it is possible to cut off the shackles and truly transcend."
Li Fan thought for a long time, and finally nodded: "Senior Sister, when the time comes, we will both attain enlightenment, break through the boundaries and leave. From now on, we will live together and be free and easy, and we will also leave a good story in the Xuanhuang Realm."
A blush appeared on Senior Sister Zhao's face.
When they were in love, they both started practicing together.
——
The disappearance of the Heavenly Lords has had a profound impact on the current situation of the Xuanhuang Realm.
After the funeral was completed, Da Dao Sect was once again caught in the vortex of fighting for the position of the leader.
The incident happened suddenly, and even Fang Dingge himself probably didn't expect that he would suddenly disappear. So the next leader has not been decided yet.
Fang Dingge's direct disciple has only the cultivation level of a spirit being transformed. How can he take on the important task of being the sect leader?
After the two remaining immortal seniors in the sect expressed that they had no intention of inheriting the position of the sect leader, the elders below began to watch with eager eyes.
So fighting is inevitable.
Senior Sister Zhao's master, Zhang Wangshuang, has already broken through to the Hedao realm in recent years. He naturally has ambitions to succeed the headmaster.
The struggle for power is often brutal.
A year later, the dust settled.
Zhang Wangshuang was defeated unfortunately because he lacked some foundation in the sect.
The leader of the Da Dao Sect was inherited by Ji Changxi from the Tianchen lineage.
Although the internal fighting within the sect may not lead to a life-and-death struggle, it is always inevitable that serious damage will be done to the sect's vitality.
After Ji Changxi became the head of the sect, he did not carry out any drastic reforms, but instead focused on recuperating and restoring strength.
In order to deal with the gradual decline of disciples within the sect, he also issued a special order to relax the requirements for the promotion of outer disciples. He also held a sect competition every three years, and used the quality of the disciples' training as an important assessment criterion.
It was under such circumstances that Senior Sister Zhao, who won every battle in the competition, gradually became the brightest pearl among the younger disciples of Da Dao Sect.
In contrast, Li Fan, who had more losses than victories, seemed a little lost in the crowd.
The most beautiful pearl is only worthy of the strongest hero.
Li Fan's mediocre performance and the fact that he followed Senior Sister Zhao all day long naturally made some of the disciples in the sect very dissatisfied.
Many outstanding people ignored Li Fan's existence and launched a fierce pursuit of Senior Sister Zhao.
Even Zhang Wangshuang, who originally had a fairly good attitude towards Li Fan, gradually changed.
Li Fan, sensing the crisis, acted decisively.
On a sunny afternoon, he proposed to Senior Sister Zhao.
There are no rare treasures or peerless magical weapons.
He simply gazed at her affectionately and said, "Sister, please be my Taoist partner. From now on, we will hold hands and seek immortality together."
Without any hesitation, Senior Sister Zhao agreed.
