The ancestor of the Yellow Springs Sect became the immortal king, leaving behind this statue. When the people of the Heavenly Marks Family, including the Talisman Emperor and a few of the Supreme Elders saw the statue, they all kneeled on the ground and bowed respectfully.
Meng Xuan stared at the statue. Its features were ordinary, and it exuded a gentle aura akin to jade. His eyes were like precious gems, with a mystical lustre that circulated within them. Between his eyebrows was another vertical pupil. This vertical pupil was the most terrifying, as if it had been born from the primal chaos. Inside was a vast expanse of nothingness. As his divine will swept out, he was completely engulfed within.
The aura of the passage of time flowed about within it, and it was extremely thick.
"The Karmic Karma Magic Pupil of this generation was created from karmic luck by the ancestors. They actually cultivated this sort of heaven-defying eye technique to the point where they can see through everything. They can thoroughly analyze a person's Karma." Meng Xuan muttered to himself.
"Mr. Ye, go on up. Let's not go over, and it will be hard for us to withstand that powerful pressure. " Fu Jin said. This was also one of the methods of the Yellow Springs Sect's test. If one's cultivation was not enough, they would be directly injured by the divine might contained in the sculpture. If his cultivation was not enough, then why would he enter the Heavenly Marks Family's Yellow Springs Nine Peaks?
At this time, the people of the Netherworld Sect were still worried about Meng Xuan. After living for so many years, Meng Xuan was aware of the situation, but he didn't mind it at all. Behind him, many sect masters, such as the Sect Master of the Dark Temple, the Saint God Cult's Young Noble Ye, the Heavenly Treasure Divine Kingdom's Supreme Emperor and Primal Chaos Court's Xiao Huangji, were standing there and casting their gazes towards Meng Xuan.
Five thousand years ago, Yao Taixu created a legend that had existed for more than five thousand years. He awakened the statue, and after entering the Heaven's End Talisman Sect, his cultivation base shot up to a thousand miles in a single day. After arriving in the Wilderness, he wielded a Damascus Steel Sword and slaughtered many people within the Demon Race's territory just to save his beloved woman.
No one knew what kind of cultivation level Yao Taixu had now. But what he knew was that it was very possible that he had already entered the realm of Saints. The Demon Subduing Sage Yao Taixu was his nickname.
Could it be that the scene from five thousand years ago was about to reappear? Would a second Saint appear in the Heaven's Edge?
Meng Xuan smiled slightly and didn't continue walking towards the shrine. Once he entered, he felt that the world had changed. Many natural laws interweaved here, and all types of rainbow light surged. The heaven and earth became chaotic. Cultivators with low levels of mastery would even feel their bodies in chaos.
The statue seemed to have awoken as its eyes lit up. Its two azure eyes landed on Meng Xuan's body. At the same time, a cold, emotionless, metal-like voice rang out, "Stop. Keep going forward. Kill."
Everyone was shocked. What was going on?
Why did the statue have such a huge reaction? Before Meng Xuan could even get near, he already asked him to stop? Could it be that the sculpture had already seen that there was no causal link between Ye Xuan and the Yellow Springs Sect? Or perhaps, in the future, would Ye Xuan shake the foundation of the Fu Clan?
"Heh." Guan Wang, who was behind the gates of hell, gave a meaningful laugh.
"Interesting. The Ancestor's statue doesn't seem to be too welcoming of him." Nalan Jie of the Dark Temple said.
Matriarch Fu and the rest were secretly overjoyed. This was the best result. If Meng Xuan succeeded, it meant that as long as he was willing, he could join the Netherworld Sect and become a guest. This person had many methods that were unfathomable. Once he became a guest, it would directly affect the situation of the entire Fu Clan. It would be extremely disadvantageous to their plans.
On the other hand, Fu Jin and Fu Tian's complexion paled. From the looks of it, this generation simply didn't approve of him. If he doesn't even approve of it, how can he awaken it?
Adept Dragonseal let out a sigh as well. No one had thought that this would be the result.
On the other hand, Meng Xuan's eyes were calm. A smile appeared on his face, hidden beneath the mask. There was also a strand of divine will from the first generation Patriarch on the statue. Very weak, but very sensitive. It instinctively sensed danger, and from what it could sense, Meng Xuan was as terrifying as a ferocious tiger. Moreover, there was a terrifying amount of resentment interweaving within his body.
The grudges and grudges of an immortal king represented that this man in front of him had once killed an immortal king before, and not just a single one at that.
What was he trying to do, for a master who had killed an Immortal King to enter the Netherworld Sect?
"You don't seem to approve of me?" Meng Xuan said in a soft voice before continuing his conversation with the statue.
The statue suddenly let out a muffled roar, "Take off your mask. Let me see your true appearance."
Everyone became curious and excited when they heard this. Meng Xuan was simply too mysterious. Now that the first generation ancestor was forcing him to remove his mask, he would definitely agree to it. As long as he still wanted to step on the Bridge of Helplessness.
But in the next moment, Meng Xuan said something that caused everyone's scalps to go numb, "You … What qualifications do you have to make me take off my mask? "
Everyone from the Yellow Springs Sect was furious. Even the face of the Symbol Emperor instantly darkened.
"Insolent bastard, get the hell out of the Netherworld Sect. You actually dare to be disrespectful to my clan's ancestors!" Ripples burst out of the void like a vast ocean. In the center of the ripples, the figure of Fu Taijun appeared in a flash. He held his dragon head walking stick, his silver hair cascading down like a waterfall, and his eyes were cold as he pointed at Meng Xuan.
"You will undoubtedly die. Although the first generation ancestor only had a statue here, if this statue wanted to kill you, it would be extremely easy." The child named Fu Hua also appeared. He looked to be about seven or eight years old, and his head was completely bald without a single strand of hair. It gave people a strange feeling.
"We do not welcome you for insulting my clan's ancestor." Many of the Fu Clan's people shouted.
Meng Xuan laughed coldly in his heart. His eyes gradually turned ice-cold as he stared at the statue. Not to mention the fact that the statue wasn't an Immortal King, even if the first generation ancestor was here, he still wouldn't dare to ask Meng Xuan to remove his mask.
Meng Xuan had killed quite a few Immortal Kings. What Empyrean Allfiends? The Heavenly Demon King of the demon race? There were even more that died miserably at his hands.2
Hearing this, the eyes of the sculpture shone brightly, exploding like a sun. A strand of the divine might of an immortal king was released as it pressed down towards him. The space was collapsing, and the heavens and earth were about to descend into chaos.
Meng Xuan wasn't acting arrogantly, he was trying to intimidate Qin Wentian. He was trying to intimidate the spiritual will in the sculpture. The first generation ancestor was also an immortal king, so he had his own pride. We are all immortal kings, there's no need to act tough with each other, right?
If you want to act tough, then I'll do even better than you.
This was Meng Xuan's way of thinking, as well as the most basic pride of an Immortal King.
The might of the Immortal King didn't possess any offensive power, but it was shaking his Dao heart. If his Dao heart was shaken, the path forward would basically be chopped off. The crowd was also able to tell that the statue was infuriated. It was preparing to break Ye Xuan's dao heart.
As for Meng Xuan, a terrifying might arose from his body as well. He transformed into a stormy sea as he faced the divine might emitted by the statue. The two divine powers collided, charging into the sky.
The countless rays of light instantly exploded, creating a magnificent sight. The stars were shaking as if they were about to fall. The statue trembled. The might of his immortal king was simply inferior to Meng Xuan's, being suppressed in every aspect.
Panic appeared in the statue's eyes as the light in its eyes dimmed. Everyone watching from behind felt a chill in their hearts as their pupils rapidly contracted.
Ye Xuan... What is your bottom line? The divine might emitted by the statue, it was difficult to break through your dao heart, instead it was suppressed by you in all directions!
"I only want to enter the Bridge of Helplessness and step onto the ninth summit. I have no ill intentions towards the Yellow Springs Sect. In reality, if I reap my harvest today, in the future, if the Underworld Sect is in trouble, I will still help and repay them. If you believe me, you can fully recover from it. If you don't believe me, I will let go of all of my defenses. Meng Xuan's voice reverberated above the shrine, causing everyone's heads to buzz. This sentence could be said to be extremely arrogant. Even the young man from five thousand years ago, Yao Taixu, did not dare to speak so arrogantly.
Where exactly did he get his confidence from to dare to have such a conversation with the deity statue of the first generation ancestor?
What shocked everyone was that they were waiting for the deity statue to agree!
"Let go of all your defenses and let me see your karma." The statue spoke, its voice no longer cold and emotionless. Although it still had a metallic quality to it, it had a trace of heaviness to it. It had been sitting here for countless years, but this was the first time it encountered such a terrifying person.
The Karma Magic Eye between the statue's eyebrows began to glow, spitting out a black light as vast as the ocean. Then, in the endless black light, a beam of purple gold light fell onto Meng Xuan's body.
It was probing Meng Xuan's previous life, current life, and future.
Meng Xuan's previous life was chaotic and indistinguishable, but he was still able to capture a few broken scenes. In its line of sight, a dazzling golden figure could not be distinguished as it was surrounded by a thick Karma.
However, that dazzling golden figure wielded a Celestial Emperor lance and killed one immortal king after another. It saw Meng Xuan in the demon realm, fighting against six Immortal Kings and killing all six of them.
It had even witnessed a battle in the Archaeus region where Meng Xuan had almost killed the Divine Alligator Empyrean!
Its body began to tremble, and its heart was overwhelmed with shock. Beads of sweat appeared on the sculpture, seeping into the ground. It wanted to continue to look ahead, to chase after Meng Xuan's origins.
But in the next moment, it let out a miserable cry. The Karma Thread between its brows almost exploded!
The deepest part of Meng Xuan's origin could not be seen, as it was covered by an endless fog! In the endless fog, an eight-winged heavenly dragon suddenly appeared. Its eyes were like bloody lanterns as it coldly stared at the statue and said, "Scram!"
It couldn't help but take two steps back, and cracks began to appear on the surface of the sculpture.
"What did you see?" Meng Xuan was shocked.
The statue shook its head. "I'll continue."
After which, he turned his attention to Meng Xuan's current life. There was nothing out of the ordinary about it. He swiftly skimmed through it as he stared directly at Meng Xuan's future. One day in the future, he would see the Netherworld Sect facing a great war to exterminate their clans. A big, dark hand came down from the sky, wanting to wipe out the entire Netherworld Sect. There were even more legendary figures that appeared and charged into the Yellow Springs Sect.
However, at the most crucial moment, it saw Meng Xuan.
