Early in the morning, Qi Daowu walked out of the room with his butt covered, looking like a delicate flower that had been bullied.
Then Tianjizi followed closely behind with a refreshed look on his face. Compared to yesterday, he looked much better.
"Master, you are so unkind. Do you really have to use such harsh means to break the seal?"
Qi Daowu rubbed his swollen buttocks with a resentful look on his face.
"Evil disciple, what are you talking about? Are you questioning whether you are taking revenge for Master's personal gain?"
Tianjizi glared at Qi Daowu, and Qi Daowu was so scared that he quickly waved his hands.
Yesterday, in order to protect the two people, Tianjizi almost packed up the entire Tianji Pavilion and gave it to the Ye family before the Ye family accepted the two masters and apprentices.
With the blessing of the Ye family's luck, the black substances on their bodies disappeared a lot. There were almost no black spots on Tianjizi's body, and Qi Daowu's skin was no longer black, but had turned into scattered black spots.
Qi Daowu was moved when he thought of this incident. Tianjizi was his master after all. It could be said that the extra price Tianjizi paid was almost all for the sake of saving him, his apprentice.
After all, he was the one who bore the brunt of the karma. Tianjizi only shared one-tenth of his karma backlash at most. Without Tianjizi paying a high price, how could the Ye family be willing to share more luck with Qi Daowu? The backlash on him could not dissipate so quickly.
His master still loves him!
"Get out of here!"
Looking at Qi Daowu's creepy eyes, Tianjizi's old face instantly turned grim:
"If I hadn't confiscated new disciples, how could I have saved you!"
Qi Daowu was not annoyed, and his eyes showed "I understand". His master had a sharp tongue but a soft heart, and he still loved his precious disciple very much.
"By the way, Master, why did the Patriarch ask us to go to Shenxu Mountain?"
Qi Daowu suddenly spoke up. Yesterday, Ye Nanxing directly told them that the master and disciple did not let them go to Shenxu Mountain, but he didn’t say anything else?
Upon hearing this, Tianjizi lowered his brows and thought for a moment before slowly speaking:
"Shenxu Mountain is where the Heavenly Lord fell!"
"Tianzun, is that the Supreme Lord of the Heavenly Palace?"
Qi Daowu was surprised, his eyes filled with deep shock. The ancient texts only described the Heavenly Venerable in two sentences:
The temperament is majestic and invincible!
The Heavenly Palace is an unparalleled force in the world, dominating the world and being the undisputed overlord in ancient times.
It is a pity that it is almost impossible to find detailed records about that story in the existing classics, but from some fragments it is not difficult to see how glorious the Heavenly Palace was at that time and how heroic the Heavenly Lord was.
The four characters "invincible in the world" really shocked his soul. What kind of talent could allow one to claim to be invincible in that brilliant era?
Tianjizi sighed slightly and looked into the distance:
"Tian Zun, the most brilliant genius of the ancient times, when the human race was in decline, he single-handedly resisted the attack of the entire alien world. Without Tian Zun, there would be no world today."
Tianjizi took a deep breath, his voice mournful, as if he had returned to the tragic days when the human race resisted the invasion of the alien world:
"The human race was decimated. Fortunately, the Celestial Venerable single-handedly defeated seven powerful warriors of the same realm, giving the human race time to breathe. He even pursued them into the Otherworld. It is said that on that day, the Celestial Venerable slaughtered so many people in the Otherworld that rivers of blood flowed, and the sky was dyed red!"
"Even at the end of his life, Tianzun used his own life-defining magic weapon, the Compass of Heaven and Earth, to suppress the alien world, locking those monsters in their own world, preventing them from invading ours."
"Unfortunately, the Celestial Venerable was exhausted and was devoured by the horde of insects that emerged from another world at the entrance of the passage..."
Speaking of this, a few turbid tears appeared in Tianjizi's old eyes. He was not a participant, but the ancestors of Tianji Pavilion were indeed protected by Tianzun in that era.
How could he not shed tears when facing such a Heavenly Lord who died to protect the human race? If there had been no Heavenly Lord in that war, this world might have long become a paradise for those monsters, and the human race... might have become slaves raised by those monsters.
Qi Daowu was shocked by what Tianjizi narrated. It turned out that the once invincible Tianzun died in such a humiliating way?
The army of insects gnawed away... not a single drop of flesh and blood remained. That kind of existence shouldn't have ended like this!
He single-handedly defeated seven powerful men of the same realm. What talent and pride he had. He almost single-handedly quelled the disaster in the entire alien world.
"So, what does this have to do with us going to Shenxu Mountain?"
Qi Daowu scratched his head. He didn't understand. Tianzun had already passed away, so why go to Shenxu Mountain now?
Tianjizi looked at Qi Daowu and said the most shocking thing in the most plain words:
"What if I say that Tianzun is not dead?"
"But Master, didn't you say that Tianzun was completely eaten by the insect army? How could he still be alive?"
Qi Daowu's pupils suddenly dilated. If that kind of existence was still alive, not only this world, even the upper realm would be shaken!
"Hmph, you're capable of possessing another body at your level. How high is Tianzun's level? When this world wasn't sealed and was still connected to the upper realm, Tianzun's level was... Emperor!"
Tianjizi's voice became smaller and smaller, and the last word "Emperor" was almost squeezed out of his throat, hoarse and unclear, as if really saying that word would touch upon a taboo existence, causing some reaction and bringing down punishment.
Qi Daowu sucked in a breath of cold air. Now that he said that, it was true that if one could possess another's body at the Nascent Soul stage, how could he not be able to possess the body of even the Emperor Tianzun?
Tianjizi then whispered in Qi Daowu's ear:
"The Tianzun's fiancée's surname was Ye, and he had two servants who accompanied him in his studies. One of them seemed to be named Nanxing!"
