421: Eight generations of demon sealing, Dao Yi!
The old Bai Ze spoke softly, his tone somewhat urgent. His figure was becoming increasingly ethereal; no matter how powerful he had been in life, this was, after all, merely a remnant consciousness, and a lost one at that. The time it could exist was inherently very short.
The remnant consciousnesses of the various Divine Beasts behind him had already begun to dissipate...
"Give me a moment."
Upon hearing this, the old Bai Ze revealed a trace of confusion.
In the next second, Shen Nian waved his hand. Having become the Ninth Generation Demon Sealer, he naturally had control over the entire Demon Sealing Sect. Although he was not very familiar with it, teleporting everyone directly to the Eighth Mountain was not a problem.
At this moment, on the Eighth Mountain, Jun Fengyan was searching everywhere for clues to leave, feeling extremely anxious, as if there was still some important matter she had not yet completed.
"What should I do..." "Why did the demon sealing order suddenly bring me here..." "It seems there are immortals knocking at the gates of the Heavenly Abyss, and Senior Brother is still there..."
On her shoulder, the Bai Ze was also scanning the surroundings with a solemn expression, remaining silent, while inwardly constantly contemplating the location of the Legacy.
However, just at this moment, the Bai Ze suddenly froze. A feeling of Bloodline connection suddenly surged up. He looked up abruptly and saw the phantom of the old Bai Ze, immediately trembling.
"Old... Old Ancestor?"
The old Bai Ze was also pleasantly surprised to see his descendant and immediately bowed to Shen Nian, saying, "Many thanks, Ninth Generation Demon Sealer!"
Immediately after, the old Bai Ze took the young Bai Ze away, wanting to use his final remnant consciousness to tell him the true Legacy of the Bai Ze.
"Ninth Generation Master????" When the young Bai Ze was being dragged away, he heard this title and nearly jumped up, looking at Shen Nian with an expression of disbelief and utter confusion.
Jun Fengyan, on the other hand, was relatively calm; seeing the familiar Shen Nian brought her a sense of relief. "Senior Brother..."
Shen Nian nodded slightly, then took a step and appeared beside Jun Fengyan. He pointed to the ground and asked, "Do you hate him?"
"? ( ⊙ o ⊙ ) ..." Jun Fengyan was stunned for a moment, then replied, "Senior Brother, I don't know him..."
Hearing this, Shen Nian fell silent, then pointed his finger into the void. "Hiss...!" The unconscious Ji Tian was immediately jolted awake by a piercing, heart-wrenching pain.
"?" Ji Tian was stunned at first, looking at the unfamiliar surroundings. Ancient trees grew in clusters, and among them stood an ancient stone tablet with the three large characters "Eighth Mountain" carved in a bold, sweeping style.
"demon sealing Eighth Mountain..." "How did I suddenly arrive at the Eighth Mountain?" Ji Tian felt puzzled, but his body remained kneeling on the ground, unable to straighten up. The excruciating pain throughout his entire body immediately made him understand his predicament.
He looked up and happened to see Jun Fengyan. His pupils constricted in shock; he recognized her instantly. Although she had gone through Reincarnation, that Divine Soul Aura could never be erased; he was too familiar with it. "Jun Fengyan?" "I, Ji Tian, have finally found you!" "Hahahaha!!"
As soon as Ji Tian laughed, he froze. When he saw the figure beside Jun Fengyan, he remembered his own situation. Oh no~!
"Ji Tian..." Upon hearing this name, an endless sense of disgust surged in Jun Fengyan's heart, and memories from the depths of her Soul began to spread.
After seeing this scene, Shen Nian quietly departed. Ji Tian had already been crippled by him and could not pose the slightest threat; all that remained was for Jun Fengyan to complete the fated kill.
Immediately after, Shen Nian swept his gaze over and sensed the situation of his Junior Sisters. Xiao Qinger had found the Fifth Mountain, the place where the True Fire Glazed Venerable's Legacy resided. Xia Youyue had gone to the Third Mountain, while Jiang Churan was wandering on the Seventh Mountain.
Soon after, Shen Nian's Aura surged. With a thought, he took a step forward. This step appeared simple, yet it contained a powerful force that transcended the limitations of space. In an instant, the surrounding scenery changed rapidly like a dream or bubble.
The noise and chaos of the place he had originally been in were instantly cast behind him. When his feet landed firmly once more, he had already appeared before an ancient and mysterious mountain peak.
This mountain peak emitted an Aura that Shen Nian was very familiar with; it was not within this Universe, but rather the Dao intent of that Ancient Dao...
Shen Nian looked around and found it to be a void; this mountain was actually suspended alone within the vast starry Universe.
In the distance, the stars twinkled, emitting a faint and cold light, embellishing this endless darkness, yet they could not illuminate the deep void around the demon sealing mountain. The vastness and silence of the Universe were infinitely magnified at this moment, making the demon sealing mountain appear even more mysterious and isolated.
Shen Nian raised his eyes and looked toward the summit of the mountain. Atop the cloud-piercing peak, a dilapidated black tower stood firm. With just a glance, Shen Nian instantly recognized that this was the demon sealing tower where he had previously participated in the demon sealing trial!!
However, the demon sealing tower before him was worlds apart from the one in his memory. Now, this true demon sealing tower appeared ragged and tattered; the tower body was covered with traces of time and scars of battle. The originally complete tower now only had its first seven levels remaining. On the outer walls of the tower, huge cracks like hideous wounds ran through every level, as if it would collapse with a roar at any moment.
In front of the black tower, an atmosphere of dead silence, like thick ink, tightly enveloped the surroundings. An old golden skeleton sat cross-legged, so abruptly yet peacefully. Every visible part of the golden skeleton emitted a faint golden luster. That light was not dazzling, but soft and contained the breath of the Ancient Dao; even after endless years had passed, and even after experiencing destruction, it was difficult to erase.
It was in a posture of having its back to the living beings, as if the noise and chaos of the mortal world had nothing to do with it. Approaching to sense it, one could clearly perceive that there was no longer a trace of life fluctuation within this golden skeleton, like an ancient fossil sealed by time, quietly remaining in the long river of time.
Yet, such a golden skeleton without any signs of life, just sitting there so quietly, seemed to possess an invisible force that silently carried the weight of the entire Universe and heaven and earth upon itself. Although it was already dead, the transcendent temperament it emitted was still shocking. On its body, it seemed that one could not see any shackles or limitations of this Universe; its existence transcended life, death, Reincarnation, and the limitations of time and space...
"Shen Nian pays respects to the Eighth Generation Senior!" Shen Nian bowed respectfully toward the figure. There was no need for anything else; the demon sealing Legacy had an inexplicable connection, and with just one glance, Shen Nian could recognize the other's identity. The last Demon Sealing Dao Venerable of the Demon Sealing Sect. The Eighth Generation Demon Sealer! The First Dao!
After his words were spoken, in that instant, this heaven and earth seemed to be suddenly stirred by a mysterious and powerful force. An indescribable, ineffable, and strange Aura instantly filled every inch of space like a surging tide.
This Aura carried both the simplicity and vicissitudes precipitated in the long river of time. Everything around seemed to be drawn into a vortex of time, and the years began to flow in a strange way visible to the naked eye.
The flow of time became faster and faster. Shen Nian felt that the scene before his eyes changed rapidly like a revolving lantern, and everything around him became blurred. In the blink of an eye, he seemed to have traveled through the tunnel of time and space, returning to that distant and mysterious ancient era.
A towering and terrifying demon sealing tower, like a pillar supporting the sky, pierced straight into the clouds, standing proudly among them. This demon sealing tower had a magnificent Aura; its body was cast from an ancient Materials that emitted a mysterious luster, and every brick and stone seemed to carry the memories of time and endless power.
