"Senior, if that's the case, the demon species should have been sealed. How come it reappears? Could it be that the seal has failed?" Gao Han thought of the battle between Old Man Yuanshan and the demon species.
The old man sighed, "The seal should not have failed immediately, but the demon seed was not completely killed after all. As long as the demon is not dead, the demon seed has a chance to revive. The current situation of Lingtian Continent is a sign that the demon seed is about to be born. The top masters of the demon clan are probably already preparing a plan to let the demon seed be born."
"I'm afraid he will be reborn soon." Facing the old man's gaze, Gao Han explained the battle between old man Yuanshan and the demons a thousand years ago.
The old man's wrinkled face finally showed a trace of solemnity, "It is true."
"What do you mean?" The two looked at him.
"There were already signs of the seal loosening thousands of years ago. That wasn't the real demon, but probably a clone that escaped from the seal. Otherwise, the person you mentioned wouldn't have been able to destroy the demon. Even if a lot of energy was consumed to seal it over the years, the real demon is still extremely powerful."
Gao Han and Zhongli Tingzhou looked at each other and said, "So, if the demons are allowed to escape the seal, won't Lingtian Continent be doomed?"
The old man said, "Yes, the demon battlefield has already begun. Since the demons dare to take the initiative to attack, it means they are well prepared. It will probably not be long before the demons break through the seal. By that time, I am afraid no one will be able to resist the demons. The human race is declining, and no one has ascended for ten thousand years. With the current strength, it is nothing but a pipe dream to want to fight against the demons."
Gao Han sincerely asked: "Senior, is there any way to save Lingtian Continent?"
In the past, he could have ignored Lingtian Continent, but not now. His most respected master was here, as were all the people in the sect who treated him well. He couldn't just watch them get into trouble.
The old man looked at them, as if he was sizing them up, and shook his head after a while: "With your current strength, it's like hitting a rock with an egg against a stone to fight against the demons."
Zhongli Tingzhou rolled his eyes and said, "You are just talking nonsense. If you had the ability, we wouldn't have to ask you."
The old man's mouth twitched slightly, "How can you talk to a senior like that?"
Zhongli Tingzhou: "Then tell me, which elder are you?"
The old man gave him a deep look and said, "You are so sharp-tongued. If it weren't for the fact that you are the inheritor of the Samsara Pearl... Listen carefully, I am the Immortal Lord Wuliang."
Zhongli Tingzhou thought for a moment and said, "I haven't heard of it."
However, Gao Han looked at the old man with strange eyes. After he decided to save Lingtian Continent, he learned about the affairs of the fairy world and knew that the Immortal King was a level below the Immortal Emperor, and their status and position were very high. The more famous the immortal was, the more likely it was that he would be remembered forever.
The name of Wuliang Immortal Lord has indeed been passed down, but it has not been remembered forever. According to historical records, there seemed to be something wrong with this person's style of doing things.
Then he saw that when Zhongli Tingzhou finished saying this, the old man, oh no, it was Immortal Lord Wuliang, seemed to feel relieved, and his expression became more and more strange.
He considered and said, "I have heard some things about Immortal Lord Wuliang."
Immortal Lord Wuliang's expression froze for a moment.
Zhongli Tingzhou looked between the two of them suspiciously, and then fixed his gaze on Wuliang Xianjun's face. He did not miss the momentary stiffness that flashed across his face. "What's the matter? Tell me about it."
Gao Han looked at Immortal Lord Wuliang.
With this glance, Immortal Wuliang knew that the other party must know about his deeds, and he couldn't help but curse in his heart. The fairy world was broken, so how could there still be "legends" about him in Lingtian Continent? He thought that there must be no legends about him, so he dared to say his name directly.
Although he was speechless, he couldn't let him say it out loud, as that would damage his reputation. Wuliang Xianjun coughed lightly and said, "It's not a great legend, just some small things. By the way, what other questions did you want to ask me just now?"
The style of painting suddenly changed.
Zhongli Tingzhou was not someone who was so easily fooled, otherwise he wouldn't be called a dramatic actor. He couldn't help but smile meaningfully, "Isn't the Immortal Lord very powerful? How could this be a trivial matter? Tell me about it, so that I can also admire the glory of the Immortal Lord."
Wuliang Xianjun has an immortal aura and a Taoist spirit. "There is nothing to admire. That is all in the past. We should look forward now."
Zhongli Tingzhou curled his lips, "That's not necessarily true. Although the past is the past, the experience of the predecessors can also warn and encourage the future generations. The geniuses of our generation shoulder heavy responsibilities and need more encouragement."
Just when Wuliang Xianjun was about to lose face, Gao Han spoke up, "Let's talk about the matters of the immortal world later. The most urgent task now is how to deal with the demons and save Lingtian Continent."
Immortal Wuliang looked at Gao Han with admiration, thinking that this young man really knew how to handle current affairs.
"Senior, do you know the World Tree?" Gao Han had wanted to ask this question for a long time.
"World Tree?" Immortal Wuliang raised his thick eyebrows. "I do know this, but you may be disappointed with the result. There was indeed a World Tree in the Immortal Realm back then, but it disappeared a long time ago."
Gao Han was indeed disappointed. "Isn't the World Tree the first tree in the world? Why did it disappear?"
"Because the place where the World Tree was born was exactly at the end of the Sky River. After the Sky River appeared, the World Tree disappeared."
"Why?" Gao Han was puzzled.
“It is not difficult to understand. The World Tree is rooted in the fairy world, and its roots run through both the fairy world and the human world, so it has the power to guide people. The Milky Way can be regarded as the guiding road formed after the transformation of the World Tree. This is a very ancient event, and not many people know about it.” Immortal Lord Wuliang straightened his chest.
Gao Han smiled and said, "Senior is really amazing. He even knows about things that happened so long ago."
Immortal Wuliang gave him a smart look that showed his own understanding. The more he looked at him, the more he felt that this boy was more pleasing to the eye and more capable of handling things.
Of course, what he didn't know was that in the hearts of Gao Han and Zhongli Tingzhou, his mysterious veil had long disappeared and he had completely become an ordinary person.
However, Gao Han was not very happy. The Sky River had collapsed a long time ago, and it was the former incarnation of the World Tree. Doesn't that mean that the clue to the white essence was broken again?
"Senior, if I want to find a ray of white essence born from heaven and earth, what other methods are there?"
When he said the word "return", Immortal Lord Wuliang immediately understood why. It turned out that they wanted to find the essence created by heaven and earth through the World Tree.
Unfortunately, if the World Tree was still there, there would be a great chance of getting it, but as the World Tree evolved into the Sky River, that wisp of essence of heaven and earth would definitely be integrated.
"There is no other way, unless we find another World Tree."
But how could the World Tree be found just like that? Gao Han searched for such a long time before he got the news about the World Tree, but it turned out that the World Tree had disappeared.
Gao Han was silent, "Where can I find another World Tree?"
"The hope is very slim." Wuliang Xianjun was a little curious, "Why are you looking for that ray of heaven and earth essence?"
Gao Han said ambiguously: "To save someone."
Upon hearing this, Immortal Wuliang stopped asking questions. The other party needed the essence of heaven and earth given birth by the World Tree to save him, which showed that the other party's problem was extremely serious and he was powerless to do anything about it.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. Senior, do you have a way to save Lingtian Continent from danger? We are not afraid of hardship. As long as there is any possible way, I am willing to try." Gao Han took the initiative to change the topic, and Zhongli Tingzhou glanced at him.
Wuliang Immortal Lord stared at him, his expression much more serious than before, his brows slightly wrinkled again, "There seems to be a strong world power in you, something is wrong..."
Zhongli Tingzhou was very unhappy when he saw that this guy was of no help. "What's wrong? It's just absorbing a few pieces of the world."
Wuliang Xianjun's pupils shrank. "What? You absorbed a few fragments of the world? Fragments of the immortal world? Do you already have a small world?"
Gao Han nodded, "It was just luck. I, as a teacher, have a small world, and later I got a few fragments by luck."
Wuliang Xianjun looked at him with a particularly surprised look, "Ever since the Immortal Realm was shattered, the abilities of the cultivators in Lingtian Continent have not been able to cultivate a small world. I didn't expect that there are still people who can do it. You are worthy of being the one in a million Chaos Dao. You are indeed the darling of the Heavenly Dao. There was no way to help you, but since you have a small world, maybe there is still a glimmer of hope."
Gao Han: "Is it related to my little world?"
Wuliang Immortal Lord nodded, "Yes, but in the end it still depends on your own efforts, and the growth of a small world is not achieved overnight. It is very difficult to grow it into a real world. The Immortal Emperors and Immortal Lords back then cultivated for tens of millions of years, and their small worlds were only a few hundred million square kilometers. It is very difficult to truly cultivate to the level of the Immortal Realm, even if it is only one ten-thousandth the size."
After he finished speaking, he remembered that he forgot to ask one thing, "By the way, how big is your little world?"
Gao Han replied: "About 400 to 500 million square kilometers."
Wuliang Xianjun: "...What did you say?"
Gao Han repeated it again.
Zhongli Tingzhou laughed sarcastically.
Wuliang Immortal Lord: “…” He looked at Gao Han in disbelief. He had never expected that the other party’s small world had become so big.
He looked surprised, "How did you practice? No, how old are you?"
Gao Han: "I'm already over thirty."
Immortal Lord Wuliang lost his voice again.
After a while, he looked at Gao Han with a complicated expression, "I see, I understand. Come with me."
The two looked at each other and then followed.
"By the way, senior, are the others okay?" Gao Han only remembered Feng Xinxing and the others when he left. They disappeared as soon as he came in.
The voice of Wuliang Xianjun came, "As long as you are determined, nothing will happen. There are many places in the Land of the Fallen that will show scenes of war. If your will is weak, it will be easily affected."
Gao Han thought they should be fine, so he felt relieved.
