Chapter 124: Nine Realms Alliance's Baili Jue, The Origin of rebellious heaven
"Come out."
As the Zhenyue Sword Master's voice faded, a white figure appeared in the hall. He was wearing a white suit, had white hair and red eyes, and was exceptionally handsome, refined, elegant, and composed.
The man in the suit nodded to the Zhenyue Sword Master in greeting: "Baili Jue of the Nine Realms Alliance greets the Zhenyue Sword Master. Congratulations, Sword Master, on taking full control and no longer being restrained, enabling you to lead the Lingxiao Sword Sect to new heights."
"There's no need for such flattery. Tell me, what do you want from this Sword Master this time?"
The Zhenyue Sword Master looked at Baili Jue with cold eyes. This was not their first meeting; they had known each other more than thirty years ago.
"Hahaha, Sword Master, why adopt such a distant attitude? We are old friends. I merely came to congratulate you on becoming the Lingxiao Sword Sect's sole Sword Master."
"I must say, the Sword Master's calculations are truly brilliant. Using the Qiankun Daozi as a pawn, you orchestrated the entire Dao Sect's chess game, not only seizing power but also eliminating all hidden dangers within the Lingxiao Sword Sect. I truly admire you!"
Baili Jue said with a chuckle, his handsome face full of playful mockery as he looked at the Zhenyue Sword Master.
This caused the Zhenyue Sword Master's expression to subtly change. He raised his hand, and Sword Qi burst forth from his sleeve, like a surging river, vast and powerful, yet also like a thousand-zhang mountain, pressing down on Baili Jue!
Unexpectedly, Baili Jue merely waved his hand, and a force of Karma abruptly appeared, directly erasing the mountain and river Sword Qi as if it had never existed.
Such an eerie method startled the Zhenyue Sword Master, who stood up with a solemn expression before slowly sitting back down.
"Tell me, what do you want this Sword Master to do for you this time?"
He had known Baili Jue for over thirty years. This person had appeared three times in total, and each time he appeared, he would ask him to do something.
The Zhenyue Sword Master could have refused, but the compensation offered was too generous, and what's more, he knew some of his secrets.
Unable to defeat him, he could only let him have his way.
Baili Jue smiled and said, "The Seal of the Forgotten River Holy Courtyard has been lifted. I hope Sword Master Chu can arrange for the Disciples of the Lingxiao Sword Sect to investigate."
"Forgotten River Holy Courtyard, those stone statues!"
Upon hearing that the Forgotten River Holy Courtyard's Seal had been lifted, the Zhenyue Sword Master immediately thought of the stone statues outside the Legacy Pagoda.
As early as when they discovered the Legacy Pagoda, they had noticed the abnormality of those stone statues. They were not ordinary statues; they contained a strange power that could devour the life force of living beings, making them very sinister.
Baili Jue nodded: "Indeed. To be honest, those stone statues Seal the Seniors of my Nine Realms Alliance. Our Seniors attacked Forgotten River but were ambushed by Forgotten River and Sealed. Now that the Seniors' Seal has been lifted, my Nine Realms Alliance cannot cross domains at will, so we can only ask Sword Master Chu for help in finding them."
"The Forgotten River Holy Courtyard has been destroyed for hundreds of thousands of years. Even if they were Sealed, your Seniors have probably died with the passage of time. Is there still a need to search for them? Could it be that they are all Great Ascension Dao Venerables?"
The Zhenyue Sword Master's face showed surprise.
Unless they were Great Ascension Dao Venerables with a million years of Lifespan, no entity could survive the erosion of hundreds of thousands of years, even if Sealed.
Baili Jue: "You don't need to worry about that, Sword Master Chu. If Sword Master Chu can find our Seniors for my Nine Realms Alliance, and should the Qiankun Daozi seek to settle accounts with you in the future, my Nine Realms Alliance will also step in to protect you. How about it?"
Upon hearing this, the Zhenyue Sword Master's brow furrowed slightly, and he warned, "Fellow Daoist, do not slander me. This Sword Master has no grievances with the Qiankun Daozi and is on very good terms with him. Why would he settle accounts with me?"
Seeing the Zhenyue Sword Master stubbornly deny it, a hint of mockery flashed deep in Baili Jue's red eyes, but the smile on his face remained unchanged.
"Yes, yes, yes. Then, Sword Master Chu, are you willing to help my Nine Realms Alliance find someone?"
Zhenyue Sword Master: "This Sword Master can agree to you, but this Sword Master has one more condition."
"Please state it."
"If anything happens to the Lingxiao Sword Sect in the future, the Nine Realms Alliance must protect my eldest Disciple and ensure her safety."
Baili Jue heard this condition and did not refuse the Zhenyue Sword Master, nodding in acceptance.
"Then, I shall not disturb the Sword Master. See you again."
With that, Baili Jue left a jade token for sensing Seniors with the Zhenyue Sword Master, then disappeared from the main hall.
The Zhenyue Sword Master looked at the spot where he disappeared, his thoughts racing, with regret and ruthlessness in his eyes.
If he had not been tempted by Baili Jue back then, would he not be so anxious now?
A moment later, the Zhenyue Sword Master summoned a Disciple, handed him the jade token, and instructed him to take five Disciples to Mingchuan Prefecture to search for the Nine Realms Alliance's Seniors.
......
Daozi Peak, Daozi Palace.
Gu Shengge sat cross-legged, his mind sinking into his Sea of Consciousness. He had many questions he wanted to ask the Reincarnation Immortal King.
"Senior, do you know about the matter of rebellious heaven?"
The Reincarnation Immortal King, who was reading a storybook, heard 'rebellious heaven', put down the storybook, flew in front of Gu Shengge, and asked in return:
"How do you know about rebellious heaven? Hmm! You comprehended a Concept, and it's not an Invincible Concept."
The Reincarnation Immortal King noticed Gu Shengge's change and was quite surprised. He had thought that Gu Shengge, as a Double Pupil Person, would have a chance to comprehend an Invincible Concept, but he did not expect him to comprehend a different Concept.
After observing carefully, the Reincarnation Immortal King immediately identified Gu Shengge's Concept.
"Rebellious Heaven Intent, huh? It seems you've also embarked on the path of rebellious heaven. This is even more difficult than the path of invincibility!" The Reincarnation Immortal King sighed with emotion.
Upon hearing this, Gu Shengge flattered, "As expected of Senior, you even know about such a Concept."
The Reincarnation Immortal King looked at Gu Shengge helplessly. This foolish child, he couldn't possibly think that what he comprehended was some good Concept, could he?
The Reincarnation Immortal King sighed lightly: "Alas, do you know that no living being who Cultivates the Rebellious Heaven Intent has ever reached Perfection? Once you Cultivate this Concept, it means you must become an enemy of Heaven, and the hardships involved are even greater than walking the path of being invincible in the world."
Listening to the Reincarnation Immortal King's sigh, Gu Shengge's Double Pupil narrowed slightly, and he quickly asked, "This Junior is shallow in knowledge; please, Senior, guide me."
"Boy, do you know that this Rebellious Heaven Intent is a forbidden Concept? Even Immortal Kings like us are unwilling to interact with it much unless absolutely necessary."
The Reincarnation Immortal King solemnly explained to Gu Shengge: "Do you know what Heaven is?"
Gu Shengge: "Heavenly Dao?"
The Reincarnation Immortal King shook his head: "No, Heaven is the Heavenly Dao, but the Heavenly Dao is not Heaven. Heaven is the collective will of all living beings and the Heavenly Dao. The Heavenly Dao is emotionless, but if it gains emotion, then it loses its Dao and becomes Heaven."
"The rebellious heaven you asked about is the Heaven that has developed emotions, but it has turned towards a side that is unfavorable to all living beings, feeding on them. It is evil, wicked, the Heaven of iniquity."
After listening, Gu Shengge gradually understood.
Emotionless is the Heavenly Dao; when the Heavenly Dao loses its Dao, it becomes Heaven!
But Heaven also comes in many forms; those who turn to evil are rebellious heaven.
"The Heavenly Dao of the Azure Expanse was shattered by the combined efforts of numerous Immortal Kings from the two great Immortal Realms after the defeat in the Realm War. The current rebellious heaven is actually the shattered Heavenly Dao fragments combined with the unwillingness and resentment of the living beings after their defeat, forming a new Heaven..."
