115: Mysterious Past

"Whew!"

"I've finally broken through to the Divine Transformation Stage!"

Xu Qi'an let out a long breath, feeling the spiritual energy flowing around him and the fluctuation of his Domain.

He was overjoyed.

He then left the quiet room.

He came outside the palace.

Only then did he realize that Immortal Palace Spirit had actually started farming in the White Space.

The White Space in front of him had changed even more than the last time.

A circular glowing artifact, similar to the sun and moon, hung in the sky.

There were also cloud artifacts in the sky exhaling cloud masses.

As for the distance, there were green mountains, flowing water, and rural fields.

It looked like a scene of a small bridge and flowing water.

Thick spiritual energy also emanated from the surroundings, as if a huge spirit gathering Formation had been set up.

Xu Qi'an couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle, "Immortal Palace Spirit, I'm out of seclusion!"

Immortal Palace Spirit immediately flew over happily, giggling, "Master, while you were away, I decorated the White Space nicely."

"How does it look to you?"

Xu Qi'an nodded slightly.

"This environment does look a bit like a Mystic Realm."

Immortal Palace Spirit, however, noticed Xu Qi'an's cultivation and said happily, "Master has broken through to the Divine Transformation Stage!"

Xu Qi'an hummed in affirmation.

Immortal Palace Spirit immediately fell into contemplation and began to speak, "Since Master has broken through to the Divine Transformation Stage, I must give Master the last words of the previous palace master."

"The last words of the previous palace master?"

"The Xuanling Immortal Palace Master?"

Immediately after, Immortal Palace Spirit gently waved her hand and took out a white ball of light.

The ball of light appeared, revealing an aged face.

It was an old man wearing a white luxurious robe.

However, this old man was just a phantom.

The phantom of the old man in the luxurious robe then spoke, "It is a pleasure to meet you, the successor of my Xuanling Immortal Palace."

"I am the previous Master of Xuanling Immortal Palace, named Xuan Jiu."

"By the time you see this message, I am already dead!"

"First, congratulations on passing Immortal Palace Spirit's test and becoming the new Immortal Palace Master. You can use everything the Immortal Palace possesses."

"But at the same time, I have bad news to tell you, and that is, you are the only descendant of Xuan Ling Sect."

"Presumably, you have already cultivated one of the three major cultivation methods of Xuan Ling Sect!"

"Hehehe!"

The old man in the luxurious robe then laughed, showing a meaningful expression.

Hearing this, Xu Qi'an felt a little strange.

The old man continued, "Among those three major cultivation methods, I guess you will definitely choose to Cultivate the Time Profound Void Spirit Art."

"Because the Immortal Palace only has the time profound stone left."

Xu Qi'an was slightly stunned.

Because the old man in the luxurious robe was indeed right; it was precisely with the help of the time profound stone that he was able to comprehend the Time Domain so quickly.

"Successor, now, I must tell you something bad!"

"This concerns your life."

"That is, before your cultivation reaches the Combined Body Stage, you absolutely must not reveal your identity as the successor of Xuanling Immortal Palace!"

"Xuan Ling Sect appeared to be invaded by the Profound Abyss Realm and then exiled to the desolate region, but in reality, it was targeted by Xuan Ling Sect's enemies."

"Xuan Ling Sect's enemies are the tier six Cultivation Country Celestial Pivot Sect and the tier six Cultivation Country Kong Heng Sect."

"I hope that when your cultivation is successful, you can avenge Xuan Ling Sect."

"But if you cannot reach that level of cultivation, it doesn't matter; just continue to carry on the Legacy of Xuan Ling Sect properly!"

"I hope one day you can revive the glorious era of my Xuan Ling Sect!"

As the words fell, the phantom of the old man in the luxurious robe gradually dissipated.

Xu Qi'an watched the old man's phantom disappear, filled with emotion.

"So, Xuan Ling Sect was targeted by Celestial Pivot Sect and Kong Heng Sect, which led to the invasion of the Profound Abyss Realm and its exile to the desolate region, eventually leading to the death of all its Disciples in exchange for sealing the Ancient Demon."

"And that Extraterritorial Battlefield was formed during the great battle between Xuan Ling Sect and the Profound Abyss Realm?"

Xu Qi'an gradually understood the cause and effect.

Immortal Palace Spirit, who was beside him, immediately said, "Master, don't worry, although there is no one left in Xuan Ling Sect now, you still have me!"

"With the treasures left behind by the Immortal Palace, Master will definitely be able to advance to the Refining Void Stage!"

Xu Qi'an nodded slightly.

He silently remembered Celestial Pivot Sect and Kong Heng Sect in his heart.

If his cultivation could reach the Combined Body Stage, or even the Mahayana Stage, he would definitely avenge Xuan Ling Sect.

But now, he was powerless!

"The most important thing now is to continue to improve my cultivation!"

He then looked through the White Space and saw the situation outside his cave dwelling.

"Hmm? Why are there so many Cultivators around the periphery?"

"Did the heavens and earth change when I broke through to Deity Transformation?"

"Since they are causing trouble around my cave dwelling, don't blame me for being impolite!"

He instantly left the White Space.

In the air outside the cave dwelling, hundreds of Cultivators were floating.

Among these Cultivators, the highest cultivation was only Dan Formation.

Leading them were the Gu Family Old Ancestor Gu Kai, an old man with an ugly face, and a slightlyfat middle-aged male Cultivator wearing a kimono.

These three were sitting cross-legged in the air, their eyes closed tightly.

The task of exploration was left to the Foundation Establishment and Qi Refining Cultivators.

Soon, a Foundation Establishment Cultivator came to report, "Reporting, Senior, we found a Formation ahead!"

"But we can't break this Formation!"

Gu Kai opened his eyes, his eyebrows raised, feeling something was wrong.

Thefat Cultivator wearing the kimono asked doubtfully, "Could someone be in seclusion here?"

"Was the celestial phenomenon also caused by this person in seclusion?"

"But what kind of Cultivator would be in seclusion here refining treasures?"

The ugly old man grinned and said, "No matter who it is, as agreed, as long as we obtain the treasure, the three of us will divide it equally."

However, Gu Kai, who was beside them, became thoughtful.

"The spiritual energy here is thin, yet a celestial phenomenon appeared; it's probably not simple!"

"However, counting all the Dan Formation Cultivators in our Qingshan Country, who else could this Cultivator be from?"

"Could it be a Nascent Soul Stage?"

"This is absolutely impossible!"

"Perhaps I'm overthinking; the treasure is within reach, should I just leave halfway?"

He then said to the other two, "Fellow Daoists, don't hold back, quickly join forces to break the Formation!"

"Precisely my intention!"

The three of them immediately patted their storage bags, and various artifacts appeared in their hands, which they then blasted towards the Formation below.

But in the next instant, they were stunned.

Their thoughts were still active.

But they suddenly found that the world around them had stopped.

As if frozen.

"Wh-what's going on?" Gu Kai was greatly alarmed in his heart.

"Fellow Daoists, what do you want by attacking my cave dwelling?"

Instantly, a cold voice sounded in the air.

Gu Kai's heart trembled.

The owner of the voice had already appeared in front of the three of them.

But they couldn't move at all.

Neither their spiritual energy nor their Divine Sense.

Only their consciousness was still slowly flowing.

"This person's strength is terrifying!"

"To make us unable to move, this is probably not a Nascent Soul Stage."

"But the legendary Transforming God cultivator!"

Xu Qi'an glanced coldly at the three, then gently waved his hand, and all the Cultivators present were turned into dust.

"If you want to steal someone's treasure, then be prepared to be killed!"

After saying this, Xu Qi'an returned to his cave dwelling.

Outside the cave dwelling, it was as if nothing had happened.

It was completely silent.
