Longevity: Starting as a Sect Servant

"I have been waiting for you for quite a while."

The old man smiled indifferently, his eyes showing no hostility. Although Li An was shocked inside, he remained calm and composed, not making any preparations and said openly, "I don’t know who you are, senior? What is the matter you seek with Li An?"

He knew that in the face of absolute strength... all resistance was laughable.

The gap in realms between him and the old man before him, even though he had the chaotic time and space as assistance, the Celestial Corpse Small Sword, and the Life Seed, was all powerless.

Since it’s like that, he might as well be more composed!

The old man saw this, smiled appreciatively, and said, "When Purple Fairy returned, she sought me and Celestial Monarch Ge of Treasure Cauldron Palace, discussing many things. The most important among them, she informed me that the Life Nourishing Immortal Skill mastered by our two Celestial Palaces are actually fake skills."

Upon hearing this, Li An indeed jumped.

Since the old man mentioned Celestial Monarch Ge, he should be Celestial Monarch Eastern from Biluo Palace. In the Saint Realm, as Li An knew, there were only these two Daluo Golden Immortals.

Moreover, they actually knew about the fake skills?

"At that time, Purple Fairy also gave us the true Immortal Skill, but after deliberating, we all felt that the spread of the fake skill in the world surely meant someone secretly laid plans with ill intentions, so the most important task was how to draw out the person behind the scenes."

Celestial Monarch Eastern calmly narrated, "Thinking it over, we came up with a method to spread the true skills across the world. After all, since that person hopes that all beings cultivate the fake skills, he absolutely would not allow Purple Fairy to spread the true Immortal Technique to the world. In this way, his plans would be void."

"Therefore, Purple Fairy established a doctrine on Dao Mountain and began spreading the true skills across the world. As expected, Purple Fairy soon encountered calamity, was heavily wounded, and afterward her senior sister, Evergreen Immortal Venerable’s first disciple Hongbo Fairy appeared."

"At that time, we were prepared to act against Hongbo Fairy, but Purple Fairy sent a message telling us to hold back, so we had to wait."

"Celestial Monarch Ge and I were wary of Hongbo Fairy, after all, Purple Fairy said her school had been extinguished, and in the world, only she and her disciple Li An remain, continuing the lineage."

"Celestial Monarch Ge and I pondered, Purple Fairy’s insistence on not rushing to act should only have one reason: Hongbo Fairy was not truly the person behind the scenes. If we acted, it would alert them, ruining all efforts, thus we still need to carry out the next step of the plan!"

"This next step involves the Space-Time Secret Realm."

Celestial Monarch Eastern smiled slightly, "Within the Space-Time Secret Realm, a treasured land remains, where Evergreen Immortal Venerable explored in the past. Opening it is extremely difficult, but to solve this major threat, Celestial Monarch Ge and I permitted our disciples to use cruel sacrificial methods to open it, which has two benefits."

"Firstly, one can obtain the opportunities left by Evergreen Immortal Venerable; secondly, we can kill those who cultivated the fake skills, gathering the world’s Life Seed power to our two Celestial Palaces. In this way, the person behind the scenes will be forced and will definitely strike at Gong Yunxi or Ye Cauldron of Treasure Cauldron Palace..."

"I just didn’t expect, young friend managed to come in, and should have gained quite a lot."

Celestial Monarch Eastern smiled slightly.

Li An’s mind fluctuated as he listened, analyzing whether Celestial Monarch Eastern’s words were true.

Various details seemed to match up.

No wonder Yunxi would say before Bone Transformation Mountain’s cause and effect were too significant, beyond Li An’s capability to bear...

At the same time, he understood that Purple Fairy conspired with the two Celestial Monarchs to deal with the person behind the scenes, yet failed to truly lure them out. The one targeting Purple Fairy was likely only one of his subordinates.

Therefore, they had no choice but to sacrifice numerous talented lives, stripping them of their Life Seed power.

After all, Life Seed power was undeniably an essential item to the person behind the scenes!

Moreover, with Gong Yunxi and Ye Cauldron having obtained Life Seed power and protected by the Celestial Palace, the hidden hand can only strike personally.

After all, when dealing with Purple Fairy, due to her low realm as a Taiyi Golden Immortal, they did not need to go themselves.

But wanting to deal with the two Celestial Palaces, no matter which subordinates the hidden hand employs, who could rival the two Daluo Golden Immortals?

This method is indeed key to forcing out the hidden hand.

"This is the True Scripture Purple Fairy passed to us."

Seemingly noticing Li An’s doubt, Celestial Monarch Eastern proactively flicked his finger, infusing a beam of light into Li An’s Spirit Platform. He glanced slightly and confirmed it was the True Scripture.

"Additionally, Purple Fairy said when she left, she chose a Dao name for young friend, Zangyezi, meaning she hoped you would remain hidden among the mysteries, waiting for the opportunity. Young friend should also possess the Taichu Immortal Coffin she left behind, which had been refined by Evergreen Immortal Venerable. Therefore, young friend was able to evade the Daluo Array set by Celestial Monarch Ge and me, bringing a weapon beyond Golden Immortal into this place."

Celestial Monarch Eastern smile was full as he spoke, dispelling Li An’s doubts.

These things were indeed known only to him and Purple Fairy.

However, he secretly kept an eye out, wondering if these pieces of information might have been extracted from Purple Fairy by Celestial Monarch Eastern and others after capture?

After all, Purple Fairy was not in the Daluo ranks, merely a Taiyi Golden Immortal, not an opponent to Celestial Monarch Eastern and Celestial Monarch Ge.

"Purple Fairy originally told us this fearing when we found young friend, you would not believe it. After all, if all our schemes failed, you are the only hope."
