“As for other means, if he truly possessed the power to reach the sky and grasp the ground, he wouldn’t have died in the Temple of War God back then, nor would he have allowed the Zhou Dynasty to fall apart.”
“In this world, all methods originate from one source, and ultimately they cannot escape from the Temple of War God and the War God’s Atlas!”
“That he could revive from death this time, as well as his various actions back then, it seems they’re also inseparable from the Temple of War God.”
“Therefore, he is just like us, a person—inheritors of the War God Heritage, descendants of the atlas’ source, not some ghost, god, celestial, or demon.”
“When a person is killed, they die; we simply rely on our methods. Regardless, this time, we must seize the Holy King’s Relic, for its significance to the life and death, survival and extinction of Iron Heart Fortress!”
Calm words revealed the situation at hand.
Chen Pojun suppressed the shock in his eyes and schemed, “The news that the Tian Wu Remnants fled with treasures has spread across the Martial World, and various powers are converging upon hearing the news. Especially the Demon Sect—they, too, are determined to get the Holy King’s Relic. Even if the Left and Right Envoys do not come, the four Spell Kings will definitely arrive. We can set a wolf to keep down a tiger and reap the fisherman’s benefit.”
Hearing this, Greedy Wolf Chen Lianzhen couldn’t help but wryly smile, “I’m afraid they are thinking the same thing!”
…
“Tian Wu resurrected?”
“Humph!”
Elsewhere, Du Xinyu knelt on the ground, not daring to say more.
Four people stood in front, with vague shadows behind them—all in a chaotic dance of demons.
“Regardless of whether it’s true or false, the Holy Relic is the treasure of our Holy Gate, tied to the great undertaking of our Holy Gate for thousands of generations. The Left and Right Envoys have given a death order; no matter what, we must bring it back to this time!”
“That tyrant, back in his day, was powerful and uncontested, and destroyed the Holy Gate Taoism. Now, it’s about settling both new grudges and old resentments!”
“Old Ghost Chen from Iron Heart Fortress is near the end of his life, his time is short. This time, his intent in coveting the Holy Relic must be to pass down his power and help Chen Feihu achieve the Divine Martial Technique, so Iron Heart Fortress will definitely fight as if their lives depended on it. We can set a wolf to keep down a tiger and reap the fisherman’s benefit.”
“I’m afraid they have the same thought, and if we all hesitate, we might be beaten by someone else to the punch.’
“Right, that tyrant was extremely brutal back then, not only our Holy Gate was victim to his cruelty, but also Taoism, Buddhism, the scholarly families of Confucianism, the black and white paths—weren’t they all deeply plagued by a sea of blood and an unforgettable hatred towards him?”
“He subdued the world for eight hundred years, killing who knows how many people, destroying who knows how many sects. Back then, the Zhou Dynasty collapsed because of this. At the time of crushing his dynasty’s power, all families exerted great effort. Now that this tyrant has come back to life, the people of the world surely cannot rest easy.”
“Once the news spreads, the various powers will surely come swarming in, the Three Teaching Sects, the scholarly families, the black and white paths, will all send people, maybe even come out in full force. If we don’t take the initiative, the Holy Relics might fall into the hands of others.”
…
After some discussion, the four came to a consensus.
“No matter what, this person cannot be spared, and the Holy Relic must be obtained!”
“Send out the messengers from all directions, the Twelve Altar Members, scatter them far and wide. Even if we must dig three feet into the ground, we need to find him!”
“This person is proficient in the art of Disguise Concealment, changing from false to true with ease. Even digging three feet into the ground might not be enough to find him.”
“Send a message to Yan Zuoshi and ask him to send someone to the Heavenly Mechanism Building. Back then, they were reluctant to search for the Holy Relics for our Holy Gate. Now that this tyrant has resurrected, let’s see if they can still remain seated!”
“We must act swiftly and decisively, and not give that tyrant too much time to grow and strengthen. Otherwise, with his methods, even without the War God’s Atlas, he might still become a force to be reckoned with.”
“Send orders to each sub-temple to search fervently for Tian Wu’s remnants, to monitor unusual movements from all sides. That tyrant’s methods are extraordinary, especially his way of teaching and indoctrination. Back then, he used the guise of a medical clinic in Xuzhou to secretly grow his influence. Eventually, he swallowed the world whole and became unstoppable. We cannot allow such a thing to happen again!”
Their discussions led to a strategy. Although thorough, there was an undercurrent of fear that they could not suppress.
…
The long night was not over, and the snowstorm persisted.
Within a cave, a fire burned bright, driving away the bitter cold.
“Ugh…!”
The person who was grievously injured and unconscious slowly regained consciousness, his blurred vision gradually becoming clear again, filled with alarm and fear.
“Ancestor!”
With a cry of alarm, he struggled to rise.
But from behind came a soft voice, calmly reaching him.
“Don’t move, I am healing you.”
Her soft voice immediately soothed his panic, and the haste and alarm dissipated.
Su Shaoqing calmed down and only then did he feel a pair of warm hands against his back, executing the Life Scroll Method, continuously transferring true essence to heal his severe injuries.
It was the Life Scroll!
The Ancestor was still alive!
Everything before was not a dream, not a dream!
With that realization, Su Shaoqing felt relieved, and his body involuntarily relaxed, immersing in the true essence that was being transmitted. He felt all pain receding, experiencing a level of comfort and relaxation like never before.
However…
“Your heart meridian is severed, your spine shattered; relying solely on external forces for recovery is sure to leave hidden dangers. Join me in executing the Martial Arts Scripture, apply the Life Scroll Method from within and without, then your recovery can be complete, leaving no worries behind.”
>From behind, a voice reached him, causing Su Shaoqing to jolt and hastily muster his true essence, employing the Life Scroll.
Though the Life Scroll varied in potency, under the guidance of the other, it flowed smoothly and its effectiveness apparent.
Time passed, and when the cultivation was complete, the hands at his back retracted, the robust essence vanished, leaving behind no more of that comfortable sensation, inducing a sense of loss in Su Shaoqing.
But he quickly adjusted himself, propped up his body, looked back, and saw a figure who had risen from the stone platform. Their appearance and dress were identical to before.
