“Could it be that I have been resurrected from death?”

Jian Shifei bent down to look at his own body, his expression filled with shock and doubt, experiencing a sense of having lived two lives.

His memory still lingered on the instant Chu Xisheng’s blade had slashed into his body.

The Ancient Sword glanced at him and said, “It can’t be considered a resurrection from death. The master of the Secret Realm has used Divine Skills to reverse time, repair our Primordial Spirits, and allowed us to reappear in the mortal world. Whether we can continue to live depends on whether we can fulfill the mission It has given us.”

Jian Shifei concentrated, sensing a piece of information in his thoughts, and then smiled bitterly, “Ever since I stepped onto the path of cultivation, I considered my wisdom to surpass that of ordinary people, and I’ve always been careful. Yet I never thought I’d fall here today.”

The Ancient Sword thought to himself, wasn’t that the case for himself as well?

The key issue was that Chu Xisheng was too treacherous, keeping reservers even under those circumstances.

Not only did he lure Jian Shifei and others, but he also sent him, the Ancient Sword, to Huang Quan.

At this moment, there was a commotion and sounds of a scuffle nearby.

It was their group of comrades beating Wisdom Demon Mountain.

“To hell with your ‘seeing through his foundation’!”

“You’ve screwed us all over this time!”

“Damn it, I believed your crap, and I died a miserable death!”

“Do you know how I died? I was dismembered by Chu Xisheng’s one sword strike, my head was gone!”

“Fuck your eighteen generations of ancestors, if you can’t read people then don’t go, implicating everyone to death.”

“Why did I believe you? Why did I believe you? Why didn’t I consider that after being inside for 24 hours, his opponent must be a Fifth Grade Upper Candle Dragon?”

Jian Shifei subconsciously reached for the sword at his waist, also somewhat eager to try.

That damn dog Wisdom Demon Mountain—

But when he reached for it, he found nothing.

Jian Shifei then realized that his Magic Artifact and sword were nowhere to be seen.

Those items had become Chu Xisheng’s trophies, collected by Fang Bu Yuan into the ‘Kunyuan Spirit Ring.’

The master of the Secret Realm did not manifest these items either.

However, in the next moment, hundreds of Magic Artifacts and swords began to fall from the sky, among them even numerous Elixir Bottles.

Jian Shifei’s expression changed slightly, and he immediately knew these were the Magic Artifacts that had fallen inside the Time Secret Realm over the years.

Each year, nearly a thousand Martial Cultivators from the Northern enter the Secret Realm, and up to twenty to thirty percent die within it.

Their personal Magic Artifacts, most of which remain in the Secret Realm, never made it out.

After all, not everyone is qualified to offer sacrifices to Warlord Li Tan.

Without hesitation, Jian Shifei began to pick and choose among these Magic Artifacts.

Those who were beating Wisdom Demon Mountain also started to come over and select their Magic Artifacts one after another.

This was a matter of life and death, so nobody dared to take it lightly.

Unfortunately, even though there were many Magic Artifacts, few were of fine quality. The truly excellent ones had all been taken away, with only very few special cases left behind.

It took Jian Shifei a long while to completely equip himself with Magic Artifacts.

The Ancient Sword, on the other hand, picked two fine items—a pair of ‘Wind Thunder Mysterious Yang Swords’ and two sets of ‘Double-layered Rhinoceros Demon Armor,’ all of which were suitable for his Wind and Thunder Dual Body.

As a mighty Super Heavenly Pillar, nobody dared to compete with him.

And just as everyone was fully equipped, the battered and bruised Wisdom Demon Mountain suggested with a muffled voice, “There’s not enough time, should we charge over now?”

He actually wanted to keep a low profile and didn’t want to speak anymore.

But the way people looked at him was as if they wanted to flay him alive.

Wisdom Demon Mountain was worried that if he continued to stay here, these people might kill him.

“It’s not time yet.”

Jian Shifei shook his head and looked towards the cave entrance, “Wood Sword Immortal has completely unsealed himself. Look, he’s sprouting branches and stretching out his limbs, obviously still having spare strength. Right now, he could easily kill us with any Sword Qi or a leaf.

Didn’t you see those Evil Beasts summoned by the master of the Secret Realm? They haven’t shown up yet; nor is there any urgency from the master. So, we need to be patient and wait. The time to act must be when Wood Sword Immortal is too preoccupied to care about us.”

The Ancient Sword nodded slightly; he thought Jian Shifei was truly a remarkable person.

Not only was he intelligent, but his talent had also brought him to the threshold of becoming a Super Heavenly Pillar.

If he had not entered the Secret Realm, his future would have been boundless. His death at the hands of Chu Xisheng was truly a misfortune.

※※※※

Above the clouds, Chu Xisheng had been winning one battle after another.

Following the Eighth Generation Sect Master, Mingjing Blade Lord, Heavenly Punishment God Monarch, and others including the Fifth-generation Sect Master, also revealed themselves one after another. They were all peerless elites of past generations who had entered the Secret Realm.

However, with his combination of bravery and wisdom, Chu Xisheng’s journey upwards was rather smooth, as he managed to resolve each opponent within ten moves.

The only exception was the Divine Grace Mark of Tai Chu Xuan Nu above his head, which was shining brightly with a purple light.

Lady Xuan, who presides over strategies, very much appreciated his intelligence.

After getting past eight barriers, Chu Xisheng saw another mass of Qi Mist forming ahead.

Chu Xisheng conjectured that nine was the extreme number, and this must be the final challenge.

He wondered who his next opponent would be?

Would it be the Ninth, Seventh, or Sixth Generation Sect Master? These are the strongest three of the Formless Divine Sect, all of whom had broken the Limit of Human and God and stepped into the Super-grade realm.

Or could it be the ancestor of the Tieshan Qin Family?

That was unlikely, as the master of the Secret Realm’s Divine Power was limited.

Invoking these ‘Time Mirrors’ to fight against Chu Xisheng would inevitably require countering the power of the mirrors’ real counterparts.

For these figures, reaching Super-grade Realm within their respective eras and standing unrivaled, becoming stabilizers in the Time River and immovable mountains, is not an easy feat for Zhu Guangyin to materialize their ‘Time Mirror.’

Even for figures like Li Changsheng and the Eighth Generation Sect Master, reaching the First-grade Realm or even half-step super grading the mirror’s avatar, is not simple.
