Rebirth of the Supreme Immortal Emperor
Chapter 247 - 247 246 The Wrath of the Heavenly Master Sect【Midnight】

247: Chapter 246 The Wrath of the Heavenly Master Sect【Midnight】 247: Chapter 246 The Wrath of the Heavenly Master Sect【Midnight】 The news of Gongzi Yuu’s complete loss of cultivation spread like wildfire throughout the city in no time.

No one expected that Gongzi Yuu, one of the Jiangnan Three Heroes, would be so easily defeated in front of Immortal Master Li.

In just a few short days, with the prestige of slaying the Dragon Family Ancestor and crippling Gongzi Yuu, Li Chen single-handedly subdued all the aristocratic families south of the Yangtze River, shining unmatched.

There was a faint trend of surpassing the War God Li Lingtian of the Imperial City, becoming the foremost figure in Huaxia Martial Arts.

Therefore, whether it was the large sects of the Mystical Sect or martial arts families, everyone would change color at the mention of the three words “Immortal Master Li”.

Guangling City, Headquarters of Heavenly Master Sect:

Sect Leader Xuan Tian, who had been in deep closed-door cultivation, urgently emerged upon hearing that his beloved disciple had been disabled.

He convened all the high ranks of the Heavenly Master Sect back to the headquarters to discuss countermeasures.

“Elder Brother Sect Leader, that brat Li Chen has repeatedly insulted our Heavenly Master Sect.

Now that he has crippled your disciple Gongzi Yuu, if we do not kill him, does our Heavenly Master Sect still have any dignity left as the foremost of the Huaxia Mystical Sect?” spoke the Outer Elder, Xuan Long, who was a Martial Arts Grandmaster and also the elder brother of Xuan Hu.

The other hot-tempered elders and deacons also voiced their support for Xuan Long.

Sect Leader Xuan Tian did not answer but instead turned to the Inner Sect Grand Elder, Xuan Nan: “Junior Brother Xuan Nan, what is your opinion?”

Compared to Xuan Long, Xuan Nan was very steady.

He pondered for a moment and said, “Elder Brother Sect Leader, Immortal Master Li is a once-in-a-millennium prodigy.

If he is truly benevolent, it would be a blessing for our Huaxia.

However, should he turn towards evil, I fear the entire world will be plunged into chaos and suffering.”

Hot-tempered Xuan Long spoke out again, citing with indignant rage: “Elder Brother Xuan Nan, that Li Chen has committed massacres at Yuhua Mountain, Jiangxin Island, the Qin Family Mansion, Yandang Lake, and now this incident in Yangzhou City, slaughtering the righteous figures.

His hands are stained with the blood of sin.

Such a vile person deserves death.

If we do not kill him, he will surely bring disaster to the world!”

“I implore Elder Brother Sect Leader to emerge from seclusion, slay the rascal Li Chen, and restore the clear and bright order of the righteous path!”

The other Outer Sect elders and deacons also clasped their hands together and shouted in unison.

“I implore Elder Brother Sect Leader to emerge from seclusion, slay the rascal Li Chen, and restore the clear and bright order of the righteous path!”

Before Xuan Tian could answer, Xuan Nan sharply retorted, “No, Elder Brother Sect Leader holds the esteemed position as the head of the Mystical Sect.

How can you casually emerge to fight with that brat Li Chen.”

As the argument below grew unstoppable, Sect Leader Xuan Tian gestured with his hand for silence.

“Junior Brother Xuan Nan, in your view, how should our Heavenly Master Sect respond?”

Xuan Nan, with a solemn expression, forcefully replied, “Alliance!”

“An alliance?” Xuan Tian asked.

Nodding seriously, Xuan Nan said: “Yes, alliance.

Let our Heavenly Master Sect take the lead, unite the Four Sects of Mystical Sect, the Twelve Martial Arts Sects, and all the major martial arts families of Jiangnan, to form a grand alliance and join forces to punish the Rascal Li Chen!”

“Otherwise, with just our Heavenly Master Sect, even if we manage to kill Li Chen, we might face backlash from his backing Martial Arts Alliance.

By then, both sides will suffer, which is not conducive to the long-term development of our Heavenly Master Sect!”

In fact, there was another very important reason he did not openly state.

That is, if the Sect Leader were to emerge to challenge Immortal Master Li, and perhaps fail like the Dragon Family Ancestor, their Heavenly Master Sect would completely lose face.

Should Immortal Master Li then press on with the momentum of his great victory, their thousand-year foundation of the Heavenly Master Sect might be destroyed just like the Dragon Family.

Xuan Nan understood this, and of course, as the Sect Leader, Xuan Tian also understood this point.

Although he believed his cultivation was not inferior to the Dragon Family Ancestor, it also couldn’t be much higher.

If he truly were to have a one-on-one duel with Immortal Master Li, the outcome would indeed be uncertain.

Immortal Master Li, still young, could return even if he were defeated, as long as he managed to miraculously survive.

But for him, who was over a hundred years old, a defeat in this battle would mean total defeat, without any hope of a comeback.

Moreover, if he were defeated, it would throw the entire Heavenly Master Sect into disarray, possibly destroying the millennial foundation by his own hands.

By then, he would become the unforgivable sinner of the Heavenly Master Sect.

Neither in life nor in death could he face the ancestral predecessors of past generations.

With these critical concerns in mind, he made an immediate decision: “Good, let’s do as Junior Brother Xuan Nan suggests.

I will continue my seclusion shortly.

As for the alliance, I’ll entrust Junior Brothers Xuan Nan and Xuan Long to jointly manage the matter!”

“Yes, Elder Brother Sect Leader!”

Xuan Nan and Xuan Long both clasped their hands together and replied in unison.

After determining a response plan, Xuan Tian returned to his secret chamber.

Gongzi Yuu followed him as well.

The once graceful and elegant Gongzi Yuu now had a head full of white hair, looking even more withered and old than his master, Sect Leader Xuan Tian.

Xuan Tian took his pulse with a hanging silk thread, his eyebrows knit tightly together in a frown, shaking his head and sighing.

Seeing this, Gongzi Yuu burst into tears, crying out in anguish, “Master, is there really no hope for your disciple?”

Xuan Tian could not bear to look at his beloved disciple and, after a long contemplation, said, “Your meridians are completely ruined.

Even if you could recover to be an ordinary person, I’m afraid that it would be difficult to continue cultivating, let alone achieve Innate realization!”

“Master, I beg you, save your disciple!”

Gongzi Yuu knelt down and kowtowed so hard that his forehead began to bleed.

Xuan Tian was heartbroken, and after meditating for a while, he finally spoke, “Little Yuu, our Heavenly Master Sect’s ancestors have passed down a secret manual called ‘Heaven and Earth are Limitless.’ If practiced to Great Success, one can move mountains and seas and wield an unpredictable power akin to that of ghosts and gods.

Now, I will pass it on to you!”

Hearing his master’s words, Gongzi Yuu was overjoyed.

“Heaven and Earth are Limitless?

Master, how come I have never heard of such a secret manual in our Heavenly Master Sect before?”

Xuan Tian spoke with a heavy heart, “Little Yuu, you’re unaware.

This ‘Heaven and Earth are Limitless’ is the most superior Cultivation Technique of the Mystical Sect.

It’s extremely difficult to practice, requiring a strong innate talent for comprehension and perseverance many times greater than that of ordinary people.”

“Moreover, before practicing this secret manual, one must abolish all their cultivation.

If unable to succeed, it will backlash, causing the practitioner to bleed from all seven orifices and die.”

“In our Heavenly Master Sect, which has a heritage of nearly two thousand years, only three people have been able to successfully cultivate it.

Therefore, few inquire about it, and we had no choice but to shelve it in the archive!”

“However, now that all your cultivation is gone, it’s the perfect time for you to practice ‘Heaven and Earth are Limitless.’ Perhaps, this is your destiny!”

After listening to Xuan Tian’s narration, Gongzi Yuu was extremely delighted, continuously kowtowing and thanking him.

Xuan Tian helped Gongzi Yuu up, speaking earnestly, “Little Yuu, don’t get too excited.

Whether you can comprehend the mysteries within will depend on your own fate.

The ‘Heaven and Earth are Limitless’ is located in the forbidden grounds behind the mountain, follow me!”

“Yes, Master!”

Gongzi Yuu clenched his fists, his eyes gleaming with angry flames.

“Li Chen, you just wait.

The day I emerge from seclusion will be the day I take your head!”

Meanwhile, at the Donghua Mist Mountain Villa,

“Achoo!”

Li Chen suddenly sneezed loudly and rubbed the tip of his nose out of habit.

“Who could it be, missing me as soon as I return?”

Ye Chuxue blinked and said, “How can you be so sure that someone is missing you and not cursing you?”

Li Chen wrapped his arms around Ye Chuxue’s waist: “Xue’er, is it you secretly cursing me?”

Ye Chuxue was tickled into continuous laughter until she was trembling like a flower in the wind.

“No way, I wasn’t cursing you in my heart!”

“Really?

I don’t believe it; I need a kiss to verify the truth!”

Without waiting for Ye Chuxue to resist, Li Chen bent down and kissed her fiercely.

“Wuu, you bad man, always bullying me!”

Although Ye Chuxue said this, she made no attempts to resist and clumsily reciprocated his forceful kiss.
