The younger sister has changed.
Once, she felt that her younger sister didn’t have great aspirations and was too out of touch with the human world.
Now, she discovered that although her sister had lost some Immortal Qi, she had gained a hint of vitality.
Wei Yiyuan and the others clung to the trunk, grasping the branches beneath them tightly, constantly pleading in their hearts.
Divine might, this is definitely divine might.
Only when the power of heaven and earth erupted did they realize how small they were.
The skull in the black fog enveloped the world, and only Lin Beichen remained standing between heaven and earth.
He extended a finger and slowly slid it, a trace of Spiritual Light appeared at the tip of his finger.
Multicolored Spiritual Light wrapped around Lin Beichen’s finger and suddenly turned into a three-foot long sword.
Lin Beichen grasped the three-foot long sword and lightly swung it.
A dazzling multicolored light emerged from the sword’s brilliance, rushing like a relentless river towards the boundless black air in mid-air.
"What should this sword be called?"
Between heaven and earth, a somewhat melancholic voice sounded.
The speaker seemed troubled by the naming of the next move.
After an unknown amount of time, the voice sounded again, this time with a hint of resignation.
"Forget it, let’s not think about this headache-inducing issue, let’s just call it the Sword of the Toad."
Atop the giant tree.
As the Five Elements Qi exploded fully, the wooden puppet sensed it.
The wooden puppet suddenly activated the Wood of the Five Elements, enveloping the giant tree in vast life Spiritual Light.
Everyone wrapped in the giant tree instantly felt a clarity sweep through their hearts, easing the imminent threat of death by poison.
Wei Shuqi clung to the branch, gasping for breath.
She and Wei Yiyuan had only absorbed a trace of the toxic black fog, yet nearly seventy percent of their life was taken.
"Brother, are you okay?"
In a daze, Wei Yiyuan heard a voice.
Suppressing his breath, he only took a breath when the suffocation became unbearable.
The toxic air here was deadly—even an extra breath could deepen the poison and result in death.
Upon hearing his sister’s voice, Wei Yiyuan forced himself to muster some spirit and struggled to say:
"Sister, hang in there. We’ve reached Immortal Valley. Father is waiting for us to bring the medicine to save him. The family will be reunited, and our clan will revive."
It seemed as if he was speaking to his sister, painting a beautiful future from his heart.
When faced with death, if one can’t fulfill their wish, at least they weave a false beautiful dream for themselves.
At this moment, a breeze blew, and Wei Yiyuan suddenly felt a surge of life force merge into his heart.
His blurry eyes suddenly became incredibly clear.
He was looking at Wei Shuqi, but simultaneously he saw the scene outside the giant tree.
A dazzling multicolored light, converging into a rolling river, flowed from Lin Beichen’s fingertips, merging with the Spiritual Light between heaven and earth.
The multicolored light tore through the boundless black air of flames, sunlight descending anew, seemingly like Buddha’s light illuminating all, the golden light enhancing Buddha!
"The Tathagata appeared! This is the Secret Technique of the Great Sun Buddha using golden light."
The Great Elder collapsed to the ground, frantically bowing his head.
He had spent his life entwined in an obsession.
Cultivation!
His resentment for being unable to cultivate led him to destroy his ancestral sect, but now, seeing the cultivator standing before him, his lifelong obsession was completely resolved.
He witnessed the awe of the cultivator but didn’t even have a trace of desire.
Because he knew, even if he could cultivate, he couldn’t reach this Realm.
The remaining alchemists and elders knelt and bowed deeply.
"The Tathagata? Indeed, who else but the golden light transcendent can wield such multicolored light?"
Mr. Li Jiang said dazedly.
Crossing the river of history, he had witnessed numerous events.
Over his life, he had seen many grand scenes, yet the might displayed by Lin Beichen was beyond anything he had ever experienced.
"Two hundred years ago, the Buddhist Sect bore a child who explored the power of heaven and earth thoroughly. Upon birth, he pierced through the mists of past lives and mastered the hundred schools of Buddhism."
"He styled himself as the golden light transcendent, defeating all heroes within three years, then disappeared without a trace.
years later, he stood in the northwest snow mountain with the Secret Technique of the Great Sun Buddha illuminating the world, demonstrating divine miracles, then entered Nirvana."
"Could he be the successor of the Great Sun Buddha?"
Mr. Li Jiang stared dazedly at Lin Beichen.
The Buddha’s Son had appeared in the world for a short period, only 20 years.
years, compared to the long river of human history, was so brief.
Yet these 20 years were humanity’s closest period to cultivation.
Even after two hundred years, Mr. Li Jiang still couldn’t forget that extraordinary light atop the snow mountain.
From then on, people realized that above the Death Gate, there existed another Realm called Celestial Gate.
The individuals of this Realm truly possessed the power of heaven and earth.
Masters of the Death Gate hidden among humanity reappeared, desperately seeking various opportunities and secret techniques.
It was amidst this fervor that Mr. Li Jiang walked into the Medicine Immortal Pavilion.
What use do those who abandoned their mortal bodies have for worldly treasures?
It was the dream of two hundred years ago that etched that obsession in their hearts.
They hoped to become an existence equivalent to the golden light transcendent.
The multicolored light drove away the pervasive black fog, then followed the stone pillars above the cliff, piercing deep into the ground.
Stone pillars shattered instantly, dissipating the toxic gas in the depths of the ground.
The elders and alchemy masters felt the air clear, and the toxic gas threatening their lives quickly dissipated.
Their injuries were relatively minor, and their exposure to the toxic gas was not as severe.
But those closest to the high altitude of the Medicine Immortal Pavilion were the most miserable.
They had been the first to encounter the toxic gas, and since they weren’t protected by the wooden puppet, their bodies transformed the fastest.
The unlucky ones died miserably, while those a bit fortunate were tortured by the toxic gas, covered in scales, bleeding from their seven orifices, barely hanging on to life.
As Lin Beichen’s multicolored light swirled, it not only saved their lives but also spared them from the severe torment.
Lin Beichen flicked his finger, and the multicolored light gradually gathered in his hand.
To outsiders, the light still appeared dazzling, but only Lin Beichen knew that the Five Elements Qi within him was not balanced.
The power of the Five Elements Fire and Five Elements Gold was the strongest, while the power of the Five Elements Earth was the weakest.
However, the main force just now was precisely the Five Elements Earth.
After a series of earth-shattering movements, it repaired the ground fissures, preventing the Medicine Immortal Pavilion from entirely collapsing into ruins.
The Five Elements Earth within him was now reduced to only a trace.
If no unexpected events occurred, he wouldn’t be able to utilize a shred of the Five Elements Earth within half a year.
Lin Beichen gathered his spirit and looked back at the Medicine Immortal Pavilion.
Though he had acted in time, the terrifying killing aura of the black fog still caused considerable casualties.
Most of the people residing in the high buildings of the Medicine Immortal Pavilion died tragically on the spot. Less than thirty percent survived.
The luckiest group was the one protected by the wooden puppet beforehand.
This group, though also in high altitudes, was spared from any casualties thanks to the protection of the Wood of the Five Elements.
The Medicine Immortal Pavilion’s people stared blankly at Lin Beichen.
The Power of the Five Elements suppressed everything.
Mr. Li Jiang faced Lin Beichen’s gaze, countless thoughts flashing in his eyes, finally slowing his head, bowing down.
"I’m inferior to you. The Medicine Immortal Pavilion lost."
Seeing Mr. Li Jiang kneeling, the elders’ hearts trembled.
Since Mr. Li Jiang joined the Medicine Immortal Pavilion, he had always been their most esteemed presence.
For many years, they regarded Mr. Li Jiang as a deity.
In their hearts, Mr. Li Jiang was omnipotent.
And now, their deity was completely defeated by another deity, using only a single finger.
Lin Beichen looked playfully at Mr. Li Jiang, a faint smile on his lips.
"You intended to kill me a moment ago and take my secrets. Why surrender now?"
Lin Beichen asked.
"You’re a person of the Celestial Gate. I’m just a small cultivator struggling in the Death Gate. How could I dare oppose someone of the Celestial Gate?"
Mr. Li Jiang replied calmly.
"You surrendered. What about the people of the Medicine Immortal Pavilion? If I were to kill them all, wouldn’t you be afraid?"
Lin Beichen asked again.
Mr. Li Jiang’s face changed slightly, his body seemed to tremble, but ultimately he didn’t react.
