Chapter 98: Chapter 85: Sending off Elder Dao Tian, returning to the Immortal Mountain!_2
What could Chen Chang’an possibly say in response to this?
He was simply at a loss for words.
Because undoubtedly, this old man Dao Tian had already said everything he might or might not have wanted to say.
What the hell else could he say?
No way!
The formation on this mountain had to continue to change.
Not only the hostile elements could be removed, but also the sneaky ones!
In the following days, everything returned back to normal.
Life on the Dao Cang Mountain continued as usual, eating and drinking.
However, unlike before, an extra mouth had joined in the feasting.
Sometimes, the old man Liu Qingshan would even come over to freeload a meal.
When they got drunk, he and Dao Tian would become fast friends.
Chen Chang’an decided to turn a blind eye to this, allowing the two men to frolic about.
As long as they weren’t causing chaos on his mountain, it was fine.
As time went by, Chen Chang’an noticed that Dao Tian had indeed suffered severe injuries.
His life was gradually drawing to a close.
Chen Chang’an could only watch this.
Power was not almighty.
He was admittedly invincible, but there were things in this world that couldn’t be accomplished with just power.
Chen Chang’an could clearly see that the injury on Dao Tian was not an ordinary one.
He had harmed himself!
Harming oneself meant inflicting damage on oneself.
Common people wouldn’t typically injure themselves to the brink of death.
But Dao Tian had severely injured himself to the point of almost causing self-destruction!
His injuries were horrifying!
By now, his vitality and lifespan had already run out.
He was on his last legs.
Honestly, it was a miracle that he was still alive under these circumstances, let alone the possibility of saving him.
That was not realistic.
However, these were not Chen Chang’an’s concerns now.
Dao Tian knew his lifespan better than anyone else did.
Chen Chang’an didn’t need to worry about it anymore.
Moreover, looking at the old man’s current state, it seemed unlikely that he would pass away anytime soon.
Therefore, Chen Chang’an was even less worried.
He only wished the old man wouldn’t keep bothering him.
That damned ’Night God’, Chen Chang’an had absolutely no interest in it!
Buzz, buzz, buzz~!
One day, Chen Chang’an, as usual, was having a meal with Dao Tian.
Suddenly, a buzzing sound echoed in his ears.
A whisper soon entered Chen Chang’an’s mind.
Upon hearing this whisper, Chen Chang’an frowned.
"Hey, kid, what’s wrong with you?"
Seeing Chen Chang’an suddenly frowning, Dao Tian, who was enjoying the meal, was stunned.
He was puzzled.
"Could it be, youngster, that you’ve finally come to your senses and are willing to accept my inheritance?"
Suddenly, a thought occurred to Dao Tian, and he asked excitedly.
"No, old man," Chen Chang’an replied.
"I feel that you’ve been freeloading on me for quite a long time."
"It might be time for you to leave."
"So, in a while, I plan to escort you down the mountain."
In the days since Dao Tian had arrived at the mountain, Chen Chang’an had grown quite familiar with him.
So, naturally, he spoke to him without any pretense.
"What? You’re kicking me out? Damn!"
"Kid, who gave you the courage? Even your master didn’t dare to drive me away."
Hearing what Chen Chang’an said, Dao Tian nearly exploded with anger.
He immediately stood up and protested loudly.
Seeing Dao Tian’s reaction, Chen Chang’an immediately said:
"Alright, I’ll tell you the truth."
"I’ve made some insights lately."
"My cultivation seems to be loosening up, so I’d like to close off the mountain gate and train properly."
"So, old man, it really isn’t suitable for you to stay here anymore."
"Really?" Dao Tian was skeptical.
He suspected that Chen Chang’an was trying to trick him.
After all, how long had it been since Chen Chang’an’s last breakthrough of becoming a Great Scholar?
Normally, people would usually still be consolidating their realm during this period of time.
And you’re telling me you’re on the verge of making another breakthrough?
Even if you were to fool a ghost, you wouldn’t do it like this, right?
"Indeed," said Chen Chang’an, nodding.
"Old man, there’s no need for me to lie to you."
"Watch this."
Humming~!
The next moment, right after his words,
Chen Chang’an exuded a magnificent aura, a pure and intense Confucian Qi of Heaven and Earth.
The intensity of this aura shook the old man Dao Tian instantly.
Because in this aura, he surprisingly felt the unique power of the Seventh Realm!
And not just a little bit!
It was a lump!
A huge lump!
Holy crap!
Is this kid even human!
He just broke through the Great Scholar and is about to attain enlightenment again, he’s cheating!
"So, old man, do you understand now?"
After the demonstration, Chen Chang’an withdrew his aura and looked at Dao Tian with a slight smile.
Of course, Dao Tian got it.
But what he felt right now was not discontent, but extreme delight.
If Chen Chang’an can break through to the realm of Great Sage, and then acquire his divine skills.
When these two powers combine, won’t Chen Chang’an become even stronger in the future!
What a good thing!
"Chang’an boy, you practice well, I’m leaving."
After figuring out everything, Dao Tian bid Chen Chang’an goodbye with a smile and then left the mountain.
Humming~!
And the moment Dao Tian left the mountain,
Surges of Hisliuy formation rose up, engulfing everything.
Within the formation, a dreadful Confucian Qi spread out.
These were all famous formations of the Confucian sect.
Under the layers of protection by these formations, the Dao Zang Mountain was wrapped up like a dumpling, tightly sealed.
No trespassing!
Moreover, along with the appearance of these formations,
More spectacular Confucian Qi spread out, entirely enveloping Dao Zang Mountain.
Making everything pure white.
So much so that if one does not enter the formation,
Even from the outside, one could hardly see anything inside the mountain.
All disciples and elders of Tianshui Sect found nothing wrong with this astonishing scene.
After all, Chen Chang’an himself is already a Great Scholar.
The appearance of some Confucian formations is normal.
Especially as they are used for cultivation.
Therefore, even though this scene was a bit sudden, nobody disturbed him.
Moreover, Sect Master Li Daoran had dispatched many disciples and elders to form a circle at the foot of Dao Zang Mountain for the protection of Chen Chang’an.
However, what no one knew was,
Inside Dao Zang Mountain at this moment, Chen Chang’an wasn’t cultivating at all.
"Transform!"
He gave a low shout, then conjured up a figure made entirely of righteous Confucian Qi.
He let this figure take his place in the scripture tower and practice meditation.
As for himself, he went outside.
Humming~!
Then, Chen Chang’an reached into his clothes and took out that ancient black mask.
Next moment, he put on the mask.
Humming~!
The instant he put on the mask, Chen Chang’an’s aura completely changed.
From a gentle and congenial young man, he transformed into a chilling, awe-inspiring king.
"Open!"
Humming~!
Crack~!
Then, at his shout, a black circular spacetime rift, as tall as a person, appeared beside him.
Following that, Chen Chang’an stepped into it.
Humming~!
When he reappeared, he was already in the Rebirth Hall of Emperor Song.
The blood moon was hanging in the sky, demonic Qi lingered, a scene of terrifying eeriness.
"My lord."
As soon as Chen Chang’an’s figure appeared, he saw Black and White Impermanence, City God and others bowing to him in unison.
"Arise."
"Is everything ready for the altar?" Chen Chang’an asked.
City God stepped forward and reported:
"My lord, the ancient sacrificial altar is ready."
"We have already put the Phoenix blood and the demonic heart of Tian Chi into it; Earth Bodhisattva and other ghost officials at the Undead Mountain in nether sea have also taken their places, and they are waiting for you."
"What should we do now? Please guide us, my lord."
"Alright." Chen Chang’an nodded.
"Notify everyone to enter the Undead Mountain."
"Behold, the purification ceremony of Earth Bodhisattva!"
