Chapter 119 The Great Changes at the Bronze Gate
What Xi'er didn't know was that Ye Tanji was also very satisfied with her guidance in cultivation.
He has taught quite a few people, and although none of them were qualified to be his personal disciples, most of them were prodigies.
However, they are far inferior to her.
Ye Tanji felt that teaching her was the easiest thing to do. With just a few pointers, she could grasp the essence of the subject and even apply it to other situations.
With such comprehension, wouldn't anyone want to be her mentor?
However, he could not accept her as his disciple, lest he be bound by the master-disciple relationship in the future and be unable to take things further.
After Ye Tanji lived in the Twin Towers for three whole months, even the head steward of Ye Tan Palace couldn't help but start to worry.
Although cultivators can easily go into seclusion for a year or two, the Palace Master is different. If he doesn't stay at Night Pool Palace to oversee things, the heads of the nine great families might become restless.
However, Ye Tanji was clearly having a great time in Zhaixing City and had no intention of returning to the palace.
Just when Steward Feng was so worried that his hair was almost turning white, another huge change occurred at the bronze gate.
Ye Tanji received an urgent report from Steward Feng: "The Bronze Gate is under continuous attack. In half a day, most of the defensive runes on the gate have been destroyed. If this continues, it will soon be unable to hold on."
"How is that possible? Even the previous Insect King couldn't pose such a threat to the Bronze Gate." Dawn couldn't hold back any longer.
Bo Yiyan's first reaction was to take out his newly concocted highly poisonous potion—Soul-Melting Dew.
This is a poison that acts directly on the soul, and it is colorless and odorless.
With the help of weapons, talismans, or spells, such as fireballs or weapon spells, the poison can seep into and corrupt the enemy's soul as long as it comes into contact with the enemy's skin.
Even with an antidote pill to neutralize the toxins on the physical body, it is impossible to completely remove the toxins that have seeped into the soul.
This toxin will eventually paralyze the enemy's soul, rendering them unable to control magic or their own body.
Its power should not be underestimated, and it also has the ability to attack multiple targets simultaneously.
In battle, it can be incorporated into spells and then exploded, capable of corrupting at least a dozen enemies at once.
Bo Yiyan had just concocted this Soul-Melting Dew and hadn't had time to conduct experiments yet, but he was fairly certain of its effectiveness.
Ye Tanji took the poison without hesitation and flew towards the Bronze Gate, disappearing from the Twin Towers training ground in an instant.
"Oh dear, why did he just leave like that? Why didn't he take me with him?" Xi'er said, looking at Bo Yi beside her.
“He may not be able to control this crisis, so he probably doesn’t want you to take the risk,” Bo Yi said.
Although the old ox, the master of the Night Pool Palace, had his eye on his young lover, to be fair, he was indeed very good to Xi'er.
Previously in Shuowang City, he did his best to hold off the Zerg army, buying time for Xi'er.
During this period, he devoted himself to guiding Xi'er's cultivation. With his help, Xi'er's combat power improved rapidly.
As is customary, now that Xi'er's combat strength has improved, she should go to the front lines to gain experience.
But Ye Tanji was afraid she would encounter danger, so he left without taking her with him.
But his Xi'er probably isn't that obedient. Although Ye Tanji walks fast, since Xi'er knows the direction, she will definitely catch up with him on her own.
Just as Bo Yiyan was thinking this, he saw Xi'er begin to fly through the air, heading towards the bronze gate.
Of course, Bo Yiyan wouldn't let his child go on an adventure alone, so he quickly followed her.
Ye Tanji rushed to the bronze gate and saw Steward Feng directing the people from the nine great families and Ye Tan Palace to set up a defensive formation.
Although doing so probably won't be very useful.
After all, once the enemy breaks through the bronze gate, the hastily erected defensive array won't hold out for long.
At that moment, a loud rumbling sound came from inside the door; it was the sound of magic attacking the runes on the bronze door.
The bronze door was shaking, and the runes on it were disappearing one by one, clearly indicating that it could not hold on any longer.
Without hesitation, Ye Tanji immediately unleashed a flurry of spells, temporarily stabilizing the violent tremors emanating from the bronze gate.
Then, he probed the bronze door with his divine sense and saw the greatest nightmare of his life!
The world-destroying war of 30,000 years ago flashed through my mind, where countless extraterrestrial demons broke through the defenses of the divine realm, and the gods at that time fought back in panic.
Despite their desperate fighting, they all perished one by one under the claws of the extraterrestrial demons.
The goddess Bai Xi back then exhausted her divine power to repair the space torn apart by the extraterrestrial demons. In the end, she barely managed to repair the spatial barrier by sacrificing her lifespan and burning her divine soul.
The ferocity of that battle still sends shivers down his spine when he recalls it.
The repaired spatial barrier has stopped more extraterrestrial demons from invading.
The gods, regardless of age or gender, all joined the battle, slaying all the extraterrestrial demons within the divine realm.
He was not afraid of death, but watching his companions die tragically before his eyes, with the entire divine race nearly wiped out, was a heavy burden even for a god with a lifespan of infinite longevity.
The gods perished one after another, their shattered souls transforming into tiny particles of divine essence that drifted throughout the divine realm.
It was these scattered divine essences that slowly gathered together, enveloping a few fragments of the gods' souls, allowing them to be reincarnated in the lower realms.
Even if they are reincarnated and are no longer born gods, their divine bloodline may become diluted or they may not be able to awaken at all.
However, the Protoss were at least not completely wiped out.
He was one of the fallen gods who were reincarnated in the lower realm.
At that time, he was driven by a strong sense of conviction to protect Goddess Bai Xi at all costs, not simply to buy her time to repair the spatial barrier.
He loves her; she is the partner he has chosen. Although they have not yet formally entered into a soul contract, they have already known and pledged their love to each other.
Because of his perseverance, he held on until the very end, until Bai Xi's physical body was destroyed and her soul was shattered, before he finally collapsed.
In fact, his soul had already been torn to pieces by the extraterrestrial demons, and it was shattered more severely than that of other gods.
However, his obsession was too strong; he was determined to continue protecting the deceased Bai Xi.
Therefore, his soul fragments first attracted the divine particles drifting in the divine realm. They condensed his soul fragments, giving him the opportunity to be the first to reincarnate, and in his first reincarnation, he awakened the memories of the divine race.
Thirty thousand years later, when he finally found the reincarnation of the Goddess Bai Xi, he never expected that the extraterrestrial demons would invade again so soon after their reunion.
Is all of this fate?
No, he was not reconciled!
No matter how powerful the extraterrestrial demons become, he will not repeat the same mistake and allow them to destroy his world.
This time, he not only wants to protect Xi'er and this universe, but he also wants to drive the extraterrestrial demons back to their homeland!
