Becoming an immortal against the will of heaven

"Hey, you old geezer, how are you doing? Are you alright?"

Seeing the Mad Old Man in such a state, Lord Liaohua panicked and rushed over, channeling his energy to inject a constant stream of pure spiritual power into his body.

With Lord Liaohua's help, the Mad Old Man's previously stagnant Qi and blood finally flowed a little smoother, and a trace of color returned to his face, but his expression remained listless.

After taking a few deep breaths, the Mad Old Man shook his head and smiled wryly, "It seems that this time, I really can't escape this calamity."

The Mad Old Man had always been carefree and arrogant, but at this moment, he revealed a hint of despair for the first time, with a bitter smile on his face.

"What nonsense are you talking about? You should remember that your life is mine! Only I can kill you! And without my permission, you can't die so easily, understand?" Seeing the Mad Old Man like this, Lord Liaohua became anxious and said慌张, "Think carefully, we made an agreement long ago to ascend to the Immortal Realm together and seek the path to eternal life. Have you forgotten all of that?"

Lord Liaohua's words were like a blazing flame, rekindling the Mad Old Man's enthusiasm after he had almost given up hope: "You're right, our wish hasn't been fulfilled yet, how can I die here? No, I want to live, I want to keep living!"

At this moment, although the Mad Old Man's aura was still weak, his expression had recovered somewhat.

Seeing this, Lord Liaohua finally breathed a sigh of relief, then shook his head with a wry smile and said, "I told you before, your injuries have only just begun to improve, and there is still a long way to go before you fully recover. I told you to continue to recuperate in seclusion, but you wouldn't listen and insisted on coming out with me. Now look, your old injuries have relapsed, and this is even more troublesome."

Lord Liaohua's words contained a hint of blame.

It turned out that although more than two years had passed, the Mad Old Man's injuries had not completely healed. Everything he had shown in front of Chen Tian was just a facade, just to reassure Chen Tian. Only now that Chen Tian had left could the Mad Old Man no longer suppress the accumulated injuries in his body, and he spat out a mouthful of stagnant blood.

"Alas, you don't understand. Now all our hopes rest on this kid. I can't not show my face. Besides, he is the only disciple I've ever taken. For both emotional and logical reasons, I should come out and meet him! I can predict that this child's future achievements will far surpass you and me. I just don't know if I can live to see that day," the Mad Old Man began to mock himself again as he spoke.

"Bah, bah, bah, stop talking nonsense. Don't worry, I will do everything I can to help you recover, so don't think about anything now, just focus on resting and recuperating," Lord Liaohua scolded, seeing the Mad Old Man's face showing a listless expression again.

The Mad Old Man was stunned for a moment after hearing this, then laughed loudly and said, "Alright, I won't say anymore. Let me ask you something serious. You saw my disciple today, what do you think of him?"

"Hmm? He is indeed extraordinary. I have a feeling that if it is him, he might really be able to enter that place. So now, let's just wait and see what kind of surprises this child will bring us in the future!"

After releasing his spiritual sense to survey the surroundings, Chen Tian confirmed that this grassland was desolate and uninhabited. The nearest market was at least a thousand miles away. Normally, no one would pay attention to this place.

Looking at this remote and desolate grassland, a trace of satisfaction appeared on Chen Tian's face. At this moment, Chen Tian suddenly removed the streamer of light from his body, and then quickly fell towards the grassland.

At this moment, Chen Tian was wrapped in a golden light. After reaching the ground, his figure did not stop, and he continued to drill underground like a sharp cone.

After drilling for hundreds of feet, reaching a very deep underground area, Chen Tian stopped. Then, after pondering for a while, he dug away the dark and hard soil around him, and carved out a cave large enough for him to accommodate himself.

Only then did Chen Tian smile with satisfaction and sit down cross-legged.

This cave, hundreds of feet deep underground, was Chen Tian's place for seclusion.

It turned out that Chen Tian had been running around for various things, and had no time to calm down and sort things out. Now that everything had come to an end, Chen Tian had time to properly sort out the predicament he was facing.

At this moment, Chen Tian slowly raised his right hand and pressed it on the left side of his chest.

"Thump… thump…"

First came the sound of beating, and indeed, this position was exactly where Chen Tian's heart was.

However, for Chen Tian at this moment, this position had another, different meaning, because Qin Yi's soul was also hidden here!

And when he thought of Qin Yi, Chen Tian's originally powerful heartbeat suddenly became disordered. At the same time, waves of stinging sensations surged in from all directions, piercing Chen Tian's heart like needles, so painful… so painful…

Originally, after the efforts of Chen Tian and Old Yao, it seemed that Qin Yi could be completely awakened, but who could have expected that at such a critical juncture, it would attract the covetousness of the Heavenly Dao and the Heavenly Punishment.

After all, for the Heavenly Dao, the majesty of the Heavenly Dao and the order of all living beings in the Three Realms were the most crucial things, and an anomaly like Qin Yi, which was enough to cause chaos in the Heavenly Dao, was a threat to it. Only by destroying Qin Yi could the balance of the entire world be maintained.

Under the terrifying pressure of the Reincarnation Heavenly Dao, even if Chen Tian used the Three Clan Avatars, it was still useless. Seeing that Qin Yi was about to be swallowed alive in front of him, the Six Paths Immortal Venerable, who had been sleeping in the Xuanjin Immortal Sword, suddenly woke up.

Thinking of this, Chen Tian's heart seemed to move. With a wave of his right hand, a purple long sword quickly rushed out of the storage ring and floated in front of Chen Tian.

This long sword was the Xuanjin Immortal Sword, which housed the soul of the Six Realms Immortal Venerable!

However, upon closer inspection at this time, it could be found that although the power of the Xuanjin Immortal Sword had not diminished, it seemed to lack some spirituality.

And what was missing was the Six Realms Immortal Venerable, who was the sword spirit!

"Ding…"

After sighing, Chen Tian suddenly flicked the sword with his finger, making a crisp sound, like a vicissitudes of sorrow, broadcasting to the surroundings…

This sound was both the lament of the long sword and the indelible pain in Chen Tian's heart!
